^^^^ when mine grows up(or I drop a v-8 in it), it's going to be that.

(I have a pontiac solstice)

Wasn’t there a 260 HP turbo version available? Is that what you have?

Barchetta 550, nothing smoother and dry conditions. The prayer of a Ferrari 12 cylinder.

NA V8 and V12 Ferraris with gated manuals will be the next big money collectors cars. I'd seek out a 6 speed 550/575 before considering any brand new Ferrari.

yes, and I got it tuned; so pulling 300 HP now.

i'm not beating anything serious off the line but I can lay rubber 1st thru 3rd if I try; it's a fun little car.

Don’t see many of these around.
Ran into one at the gym parking lot this morning.

Nurburgring in a different note.
Sabine Schmitz’s van challenge.

I hope that is just a tag on the car. The 750 I is and always has been a boat. very comfortable. Kind of like the Cadillac of BMW. The M5 on the other hand is comfortable fast and can just about out handle Anything on the road

It’s not just a tag.
It’s actual M Performance version.
Not an M series though.

Basically the engine from a Ghost.

Anyone driven an Alpina b7? What do you think of em?

Not a new one, but I drove a 2011 B7. I loved it, kind of what Shindlerspiste said, but it was fast as hell and cornered really flat. The salesman was with me so I didn't beat it to death but it was a very fun ride. Didn't buy it because is was so much more money than a regular 750Li. We ended up with a 2011 750Li with the M Sport package on it. In 2011 M Sport was basically a cosmetic package with 20" wheels, blackout chrome, and a better looking front bumper cover. Same twin turbo V8. Theres a little "M" on some of the steering wheels and door sills. It's been a great car but warranty is out, anyone wanna buy it?

[schindlerpiste]

I missed that v12 tag. Still heavy car for under 300bhp. Nice car to be driven around in.

[Bobby Stainless]

Whoever it is, they are going to get destroyed on that car. Matte champagne over saddle...

[JimmyCarter]

LOL - literally just saw one last night but hadn't seen one in years (if ever now that i think about it?) before that. Black exterior though, and the guy driving it seemed to be having a tough time with the size of the car in city traffic (or was just a generally terrible driver)

[DeepHelmet]

Yeah, pretty dreadful color combo.

[nutmegchoi]

I do not like most matte color and definitely don’t like champagne.
But I liked them on that particular car.
It was nice.
Especially when it was someone else’s.

[BmillsSkier]

BMW makes a great Champagne color.

Saddle interiors are abysmal. Sorry to those I’ve offended.

Currently in a ‘17 A6 loaner that is turd brown over black interior and it makes me a little more sad inside every time I get in.

Haha. Saddle is my favorite interior. Just something about it. Champagne exteriors should be reserved for old ladies driving Cadillacs 60 mph in the fast lane.

BMW 1st choice: BLK/RED

BMW of Murray had a M Sport 7’r matte black over red. It was stunning.

[Bobby Stainless]

I literally cringe when someone says they are trading a 7 series in. Not including Ultra Luxury, those thing depreciate harder than just about any car.

In other news.

I really want this GTR. Hyper car slayer. 1050 awhp...

Yep. The depreciation of those cars is truly amazing. So is that GTR.

[Ted Striker]

Saw this V8 Monza at trader joe's. Custom body work, interior was mostly gone with a full cage, race seats + harness. Vanity plate: GONZA. No beauty, but I'm sure it's fast.
