So Sweet. Needed a white and a blue E31 next to it to make it a little more fun.

I'm telling you - that M8 has never been happier than that moment right there - next to its siblings! Awesome.

Question on the side windows:
I assume the main glass/plexi is fixed and the baby window is what goes up and down - yes? How does the main window seal against the frame then if it doesn't dip when the door is opened?
I'm sure it's pretty obvious in person, but none of the pics I've seen shed much light on this - thanks! (And yes, I'm a jealous SOB that I couldn't be there to see this beauty in person!)

Wow, there it is. Lets see a few more pics. That beast of an engine. Where are the DK's and distributors? No stereo, epic.

Fixed frame around the windows...no dipping needed. Fixed B pillar present.
Heading to the Mezzanine
It has 12 individual throttle bodies under that fancy intake. As for the distributors, electronic ignition maybe?
Member
True M engines have individual throttle bodies for each cylinder. Hence, there are 12 of them, but it looks cable driven.
The MAF's are where you can expect them to be...aft of the air filter boxes. I think I see a glimpse of a coil and some plug wiring where the distributor would be
Member
12 Throttle bodies, damn. Yeah, after I put my glasses on I saw the MAF's.
Did anyone get a video of it being started up?
Member
Great question. Last article I read stated they would not fire up the engine due to...hmmm faulty DME? Something...

Ya hilarious. And why would you call Claus a douche? He's coming all the way from Germany to have strangers look and touch the car. He has all the reason in the world to be anal about sh like this.
