I am a new member of the forum and I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I have a 1993 Black 850Ci with 100K - Father bought the car new and I bought it from his estate when he passed in 2001. He never was extravagant or wasteful with money, but he loved this car. I have enjoyed this car, sometimes treated it badly, but I also brought it back to life because it is special.
I don't know all of the technical specs but I know I like driving it and turning heads. I debate selling every once in awhile, but I can't get past the fact that the car still looks tough 16 years after it was built and if I went out and dropped $40,000 on a new car, it wouldn't turn heads like my this one does.
I probably won't be much help to people with problems or technical questions, but I can try.
I look forward to talking with you.

Welcome to the forum and Merry Christmas.
When you have reached 15 posts you can load up pics and thats what we all wana see. So get the post count going by telling us a bit more about your car.
Best regards Luke.
