Not bad for a bodykit..
#16
The body kit on this car is really well done. Did a little bit of work on it last year and he is waiting for me to have an opening so he can get it back here. He also wants me to do some work on his 850.
Was really cooling having two wide bodies in the drive at one time.

You shouldn't make statements that aren't necessarily true. There are several wide bodied 928s on this forum such as mine and "Koenig" with kits that were installed 20 years ago. Don't want to get into a discussion about like/dislikes, however, if the installation is done properly with braces below the body work you have nothing to worry about. My kit is 25 years old and 160K mi old.

It amazes me how some people will spend tons of money and time on the exterior of the car and the engine is obviously in sorry shape.
Who knows about the rest of the running gear.
Is this another case of putting lipstick on a pig?

Let me guess, intake leaks, throttle issues and cooling or HVAC problems. I was so close to buying an 850CSi four years ago in New Jersey. Sooooo close.
<edit; if you don't want to work on the 850 send him to Mike Dadja in Hurst. Dadja-do-rite automotive. Guy knows a ton about BMW 850.>

Yes it looks really quite good as long as you don't open the hood or hatch.
The interior looks OK I think - just tired. Why spend the money on that joke in the hatch and not refresh the engine? or if its all about looks - make the interior particularly nice.
Seems like some odd priorities there - could be a good buy? factor in perhaps a new engine (euro?) & plenty of interior refresh - could be great unique car...
