Stunning 850CSI

Surely they are not CSI wing mirrors ?
-
I too am puzzeled.
The mirros don't ad up with a Csi.
I thought all Csi's came with sport seats.
Not to familliar with the US instrument cluster, but what is the "S" in the far left window?
It is a manual gearbox, but is it a Auto/manual rebuild? Thinking of the above mentioned "S" (or is that a EDC indication?)------------------------
Ok, I ran the Vin number on Realoem.com since I was in doubt that this car was real.
It's a USA spec 850Csi buildt in July 1994.
-
USA-spec CSi's did not come with the M-Tech mirrors for some odd reason. It was an add-on
By sports seats, do you mean the hamstring extension? Because if you do, I believe that all USA-spec cars never had this as an option (makes no sense to me).
-
yes the front pull out and proper side support.
-
For some idiotic reason, this was not ever offered with USA-spec E31. Makes zero sense since my E34 had it.
-
The more I look into thing the greater I realize that the diferences between Euro and US BMW's are.
I was looking at all the US E36 M3's that was turbocharged and could not understand it, as the 286bhp 3.0 and 321bhp 3.2 M3's were pretty potent cars to me.
Then I realized that the US version only had 240bhp, and that the engine wasn't even a true S50 enginge but a suped up M50.lots of weird differences that doesen't make sense.
Maybe the US marked is a bit different to the Euro marked, and that the cars was made more comfy for the Americans, with the sportyness as an option. -

Whoopeee! wouldn't you feel just slightly ripped off if you bought your CSi in the US and then found out what the Euro versions had extra? Still - lot's of consolation from the "BMW Motorsport" handles

This one has been on and off the bay for a while, there is also a black one.
-
Both lovely cars but that steering wheel on the US CSi is a joke
-
Those 4 spoke wheels are not attractive at all. I'm glad I installed an M-Technic II 3-spoke wheel. Makes a huge difference IMHO.
Cheers

Also, USA-spec CSi did not come with the M Mirrors either.
