About this car
Sold on Cars & Bids for $24,000. This 1992 BMW 850i is finished in black over a gray interior and is powered by a 5.0-liter M70 V12 paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. It shows 93,300 miles and was offered in Lexington, Kentucky with no reserve.
What the photos show
- Black paint is glossy and reflective on every panel in the outdoor photos, the lamp covers, doors and quarters line up flush and the tinted glass is clean — no paint or body budget from these photos.
- Standard silver wheels are clean and unkerbed in all three full views and the tyres look evenly worn — no wheel refurb budget from these photos.
- Cream leather shows grubby shading and creasing on the driver seat cushion and bolster in the cabin photo, passenger seat cleaner — budget for a deep leather clean and treatment, not a retrim from these photos.
- Dash and console present tidy around the manual shifter, though the radio is an aftermarket unit and a small switch blank is missing beside the gaiter — budget for minor console details, not a dash from these photos.
- Gauges are clear in the close-up but the digital mileage display is pixel-faded and hard to read — a typical E31 display fault to budget for, shown in the photo itself.
- This 9-photo gallery has no engine bay and no underside view, so the V12's presentation and the floor cannot be judged from these photos.
Money: At $24,000 the cheapest 850i here, the photos split the difference — glossy black paint outside, but a grubbier cream driver seat and a fading mileage display inside explain the step down from the $29,000–$31,900 cars.
