Saw this stunning Alpina B12 5.7 posted on another forum... What a badass car!

Me too... I f*cking love the 8 with the lights up. I've wanted one for a while but think the maintenance on a 850 would be a killer.

Not my pics or my find, but thanks! While we are on the subject, some of my fave shots of the 8. I still want one bad.












My absolute favorite, exactly how I would imagine mine:



Anyone own one or has owned one that wants to share some pics?

Maintenance on the 12cyl is what has scared me away from one. They still look so good even by today's standards... I feel the same way about the last-gen Supra and the last-gen RX-7 also. Timeless designs.

Thanks for the photos bud. I am dreaming of making my own M8 by dropping the S85 and DCT in the car.

Some great shots, guys.

This black/black 850CSi belongs to Mr. Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports, and Hendrick Auto Group. It's in mint condition, and very beautiful in person. I took this pics at Hendrick BMW, Charlotte. I love the M-Parallel style #37 wheels!
