BMW may have another 8-Series blending, yet that never prevents fans from fawning over the first ones, particularly in the form of a V-12 . As of now, aficionados have the opportunity to claim a fairly exceptional one.

Noted on the continually intriguing Bring A Trailer, is the largely renowned comedian George Carlin’s own 1996 BMW 850Ci. Carlin actually drove the vehicle until the point of his passing in 2008 and his daughter has since dealt with the car. What’s more, it’s mechanically original with just 79,000 miles on the clock.

As any individual who’s seen some of Carlin’s shows, you’ll know the clever man got a kick out of the chance to wear black. So it’s not unexpected that a Schwartz exterior shade covers a Black Nappa inside with wooden trim, and all the body panels are apparently also in original condition. A few blemishes are apparent, and the seller takes note that the hood, rooftop, one of the doors, and bumpers have been refinished in the original colour.

As for the mechanics, the 850Ci brags a smooth 5.4-liter V-12 motor with 322 HP and 360 pound-feet of torque. It’s only one of 363 conveyed to North America with the powertrain feature. Here, a 5-speed auto works with the V-12 motor. Administration and service records in 2017 demonstrated no mechanical failure, yet the headliner was refurbished after it started to hang. There are a few issues, however. The cruise control does not work and an airbag dash light is on because of a flawed safety belt connection.

Another neat touch you wonder? The first BMW toolbox stays in the trunk compartment complete with a blue BMW fabric.

At this moment, the going offer is $17,000, though we’re a few days out from the conclusion of the auction. The cost is anticipated to inevitably climb.
