I know the owner of one of the marinas bought a 850 new and got it about $20,000 UNDER sticker back in the day, thats how bad the dealers were trying to get rid of them.

Ahh, you people worry about weight too much. The only thing I don't want to be heavy is a girl. Everything else is fine.

I've often said, one of the few cars that I'd want more than an FD is the BMW 850iL with a manual transmission. Now that's a rare beast! The 8-series is right up there with the FD as far as looks are concerned.

I once saw a yellow one on an auto transporter by my house 5 years ago. It also looked like it had been made into a convertible. I guess there are people even more nuts than us.
