The M850i is an incredible car that completely blew us away.
BMW set out with a vision for their flagship vehicle and the M850i marries all the characteristics they were hoping for. It's a true sportscar that lives up to what all models with the number "8" in the name represent: highly sporty and emotional. At the same time, the M850i is comfortable and luxurious and it has been described as a grand tourer as well.
