This 1993 BMW 850CSi is a European-market example that was sold new in Monaco and later brought to the US in September 2024. Now showing 34k kilometers (~21k miles), the car is finished in Tobago Blue Metallic and is powered by a 5.6-liter S70 V12 linked with a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The 850CSi received revised front and rear valances along with stiffer springs and dampers, and European examples feature larger front brake rotors and rear-wheel steering. Additional equipment includes 17″ Style 5 wheels, hidden headlights, power-adjustable front sport bucket seats trimmed in black and Tobago Blue leather, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
The 850CSi featured revised front and rear valances and circular quad exhaust tips when compared to other E31 models, and European-market units received tinted front corner lenses in addition to M-design side mirrors. This example is finished in Tobago Blue Metallic (256) and features hidden headlights with washers.
Cross-spoke 17″ Style 5 alloy wheels are mounted with 235/45 front and 265/40 rear Hankook Ventus S1 evo tires. The CSi features a lower ride height with stiffer springs and dampers compared to the standard 850, and European-market examples were equipped with larger 13.6″ floating front brake rotors as well as Active Rear-Axle Kinematic (AHK) rear-wheel steering.
The power-adjustable front sport bucket seats and individual rear seats are upholstered in black leather with Tobago Blue inserts and are joined by color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Wood trim accents the cabin, and amenities include driver’s seat position memory, dual-zone automatic climate control, an onboard computer, a radio block-off plate, and power windows and locks.
A four-spoke steering wheel frames a 300-km/h speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer shows 34k kilometers (~21k miles).
The 5.6-liter S70B56 V12 features Bosch Motronic fuel injection and an engine oil cooler. Factory-rated output was 375 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
