Didn't BMW give Pierce Brosnan an 850CSi for doing "Golden Eye", the one with the Z3? I thought I read that somewhere.

It is not the fastest car on the market. It is not the most dependable car on the market (but who wants a friggen Honda?). Bottom line, it is one of the sexiest damn cars ever built. Hollywood made a huge mistake overlooking the 8 for a bond movie! Talk about THE ULTIMATE bond car - can you imagine a "Q" modified 850 CSi for 007?! The 8 has class and distinction. If you want speed, go buy a Vette. If you want reliability, go buy a Honda. If you want to drive a unique piece of automotive history that was light years ahead of it's time, keep the 8!
