This 1991 BMW 850i is finished in Brilliant Red over black leather and powered by a 5.0-liter V12 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a sunroof, power-adjustable front seats, a factory cassette stereo with a CD changer, H&R lowering springs, and BBS-style 18″ wheels. The car was first registered in Ohio and spent time in North Carolina, Virginia, and California before its acquisition by the seller in 2016.
The car is one of the 273 North American-market examples finished in Brilliant Red (308) for the model year and features a sunroof, pop-up headlights, integrated front fog lights, body-color mirror caps, and quad exhaust outlets. The seller states the clear coat was reapplied under previous ownership.
BBS-style 18″ multi-spoke wheels are mounted with 245/40 BFGoodrich g-Force Sport tires. Factory equipment includes four-wheel disc brakes and dynamic damper control. H&R lowering springs have reportedly been installed at all four corners, and the seller states the stock springs are included in the sale.
The cabin features power-adjustable front seats upholstered in black leather along with matching carpets and floor mats. Amenities include dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, power accessories, electric steering-column adjustment, an onboard computer, a leather-wrapped shift knob, and a factory cassette stereo paired with a trunk-mounted CD changer. The seller notes that the hazard switch and crash-alarm relay were replaced in August 2020.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 190-mph speedometer and a tachometer along with gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 88k miles.
The M70 5.0-liter V12 was rated at 296 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque when new. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The seller notes that there is a slow draw on the electrical system and battery cutoff switches have been installed.
