2019 BMW 8 Series Coupe Debuts

[Mille162]

What a disappointment. I lusted after the original, saved and scraped to buy a used one and it’s still one of sexiest I’ve ever owned...that v-12 paired with a 6spd had so much torque and such a great sound (SS exhaust) that you forgot it was a touring car and not a true sports car. And the looks! I had a Zeemax full body kit installed (white/grey interior) that smoothed out the squarish front/rear bumpers and gave it an even more timeless look. I really wish they would have brought back the flip up headlights for nostalgia sake!

On the plus side, maybe the new release will prompt a few collectors to trade-in their garage queen for the new model and I’ll be able to finally find a ‘90’s one worth buying that hasn’t been pimped out with chrome wheels and crappy stereo upgrades!
