This was parked at work this morning.

Dat car-phone...

Oh...Alrighty then. (when you see it, you'll know.)

Price as new in 1993 was $87,000. That's $144,000 today. Damn.

Probably only get $15,000 for it now. BMW dealer will get double that the first time it's taken in for service.

UPDATE: As several have indicated this is not an 850 CSi. It does have quad exhaust. The sticker shows it as an 850 Ci A; which I'm guessing means 850 Ci Auto.

This made me lose all respect for the owner.

///M badge on a car that never had an ///M edition.

Yeah... easily remedied though.

ALL LIES!!! This ain't an 850CSi. The CSi only came with a 6-spd manual and had quad exhaust tips and different bumpers. Probably a, 850Ci or 850i. Also, you need to drop that tie until it hits your belt.

Man, you don't see that many of that generation Ford Probe on the road anymore.

Yes. What about it?

I hate floppy ties. So what?

I'd go around at night and take off all of the undeserved M badges.

Even the M235i badges.

Unfortunately this isn't a real CSi - this guy needs a glove slap.

YES!

I once saw a Sentra Se-R badge on a Caravan.

Why?

I know. I hadn't gotten around to fixing it before I took the pics.

Love dem old 8 series. Hate the owner who puts an //M badge on one. Someone take this beautiful machine away from its d-bag owner.

I want one so bad! I'm like a little kid you tell not to touch the hot stove. I know it's going to burn me, but I just have to see for myself

You read way more defensiveness into that post than there is.

It's all cool. No worries.

I prefer tie clips when I actually have to wear the devilish things, but thank god this new job is casual!

Sorry. /hangs head in shame/

I was in a rush to get to work on time. I forgot to put on a watch as well. I feel weird without one.

I've gotten used to wearing them. Friday and Saturday they are not required.

Same thing happened to me yesterday. No watch = staring at my wrist and sighing.

850 CI A according to the sticker.

Eh... I actually really want a dial with a totally blank face and hands that move. I never really care what time it is, I just need to have a wrist accessory to complete the look.

Sounds like a Movado would work for you.

Nope. Not blank enough. I also hate gold, and the stupid jewel at 12.

This is more what I want; Alessi Out Time. Though, even with this one there are still markings on the outside of the case, and while it's not a deal breaker I would remove the Alessi label at 3.

It's an 850 Ci. Updated the post with a pic of the original sticker.

Yeah. I'm actually really excited about the Moto 360. I don't even have an Android phone, but I want to learn how to make skins for that so I can have my blank face and moving hands.
