My wife and I took our new 850i out for a lengthy drive today...what a pleasure! This being our 7th BMW and only 850 we've ever owned, I was completely amazed at how much attention it draws. Pretty cool :) This car is definetly the crown jewel of BMW's as far as I'm concerned. I'm almost kicking myself for not having purchased one sooner. I don't know if you can tell (smirk), but I'm a happy camper! I'll post a pic in a day or two.
