The Southwest is the best place to buy a car from! Our great weather year around helps keep vehicle condition excellent. We are dry year around so there is no corrosion from moisture, salted ocean air or salted roads. These conditions can wreak havoc on cars not just aesthetically but more seriously mechanically & electronically. Take that into account when buying a coast car or a car that has been exposed to the seasons. And salted or graveled roads. There is usually a reason that car is being offered at a discounted value.

For immediate purchase, feel free to call Al at 602-751-7601 Today a second-hand 8-series is a rare sight on a BMW forecourt, the majority of 850's are selling privately or passing through specialist used car dealers. But if you can find one and you want to experience luxury motoring for a fraction of the original cost, there are few cars to match it! The BMW 8 Series is a V8 or V12-engined 2-door 2+2 coupe built by BMW from 1989 to 1999. While it did supplant the original E24 based 6 Series in 1991, a common misconception is that the 8 Series was developed as a successor. However, it was actually an entirely new class aimed at a different market, with a substantially higher price point and better performance than the 6 series. It was BMW's flagship car and had an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). Design of the 8 Series began in 1986, with construction starting in the same year. The 8 Series debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) in early September 1989. The 8 Series was designed to move beyond the market of the original 6 Series. The 8 and 6 Series cars were distinctly different in design, though both were considered Supercars. The 8 Series however had substantially improved performance, as well as a far higher purchase price. Over 1.5 billion Deutschemark was spent on total development (2008 USD nearly $1 billion). BMW used CAD tools, still unusual at the time, to design the car's all-new body. Combined with wind tunnel testing, the resulting car had a drag coefficient of 0.29, a major improvement from the previous BMW M6/635CSi's 0.39. This model was designed as a direct competitor to the upcoming Mercedes-Benz SL-Class and S-Class coupes (later renamed the CL-Class). While it has less rear passenger volume than the CL which is considered a two-door sedan, the 8 Series could accommodate two passengers in the rear, while the SL roadster is a two-seater. 850i This was the first model launched in 1990 with the 5 litre M70B50 V12 engine producing 300 PS (221 kW; 296 hp). It was available with either a 4-speed automatic or a 6-speed manual gearbox. 850Ci There is some confusion over why and when the 850i became the 850Ci. The change happened around the introduction of the 850CSi and it is believed that BMW decided to include the "C" in the model name that denotes 'Coupe' just as two-door 3 Series cars alongside the 8 Series read 323Ci, 328Ci and so on. The confusion starts when BMW installed the new M73B54 engine in the car. This was not an immediate changeover, and indeed both the M70 and M73-engined cars rolled off the production lines side-by-side for about nine months in 1994, both named 850Ci. As the capacity of the M73 increased to 5.4 liters and the compression ratio went up, the power output rose to 326 PS (240 kW; 322 hp).
