[QUOTE="mAzTT, post: 370775, member: 7491"] I'm not an BMW nut,. but i'm an 8 series nut.. THere is an M8,. well, only one, which never made it to production (reason being it wasnt deemed road safe back then, and there wasnt a market for the car) it had a reworked/tuned up to 550hp of the 850 CSI engine (S70),.. which later became the powerplant for the McLaren F1 (of course tuned up samore lar..) Thus, the 850 CSI is now(then) dubbed M8,.. not technically THE M8 per say,. but it was accepted by the 8 series enthusiasts that the [b]850 CSI[/b] are the M8's.(THe engine name had the 'S'70, where S is of M-origin.. in front it had the //M badge on the engine, and door sills,. stuf flike that), Also, thei Vin numbers stated WBS which is form BMW Motorsports, as compared to the WBAm which is BMW AG.. haha the M8 had an identity crisis ler so to speak.. There was one in Ampang for sale,. black color.. dont know what happened to it...didnt have the moolah to get it then.. :((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( The car was in pretty bad shape,. really bad shape... i guess the owner didnt know what he had in his hands..:( wanna get an idea of how rare the CSI's are,.. ? only 1500+ were ever built. V12 baby... V12... [/QUOTE]
