I've never expected to get this...

In one episode of Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond are on a challenge to find used cars that have similar pricing to the Nissan P_x_ (sorry, vowels bleeped to avoid search overload) compact car. Jeremy Clarkson bought a Mercedes-Benz CL600 W215 while Richard Hammond bought a BMW 850Ci, which makes it an extraordinary bargain and put them to a series of challenges, especially when Clarkson's CL won a drag race against Hammond's 850Ci. Also, Hammond's 850Ci is smothered with more germs than Clarkson's CL600. To find out, please purchase the Top Gear Season 17 DVD or Blu-Ray, out now.

This car is not Hammond's 850Ci but this one's way more of an enhanced version of the car Richard Hammond drove for the challenge. It was reviewed from the old Top Gear by Jeremy Clarkson. Some say this is the modern equivalent of the legendary BMW 3.0 CSL.

A perfect view to drive this classic German grand tourer

Yes, there was a BMW included on Forza Motorsport 4's March Pirelli Pack but I've never expected to get this...

This is the very rare, very beautiful BMW 850CSi, a car that was very close to the defunct M8 you can get. It may look staunch, very old, and went out of production, but this one is a modern classic car. Seems that I'm finally out from the ridiculousness caused by hours of driving the Renaultsport Clio 200 earlier in the game and this BMW is sublime. A car that can take you directly back to your childhood memories of playing this car from a very old video game to a very old gaming console. I think that this is definitely one of the most beautiful BMW sports cars ever made and I'll stick to that. That old 8-Series became the template of the 21st-century 6-Series when it came out in the market years ago.

Essentially, it was based on the 850i but the 5.0L V12 engine has been tweaked into a 5.6L V12 engine, producing 372 horsepower and 402lb-ft of torque. It can do 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 184mph.

By modern-day standards, the 850CSi is not somewhat quicker than you asked but it was made to be more of a geek car. A two-ton supercomputer on wheels or a big V12 Game Boy might be best to describe the 850CSi but overall, it was just a wingless jet fighter.

In Forza Motorsport 4, if you have the March Pirelli Pack on board, the 850CSi is yours to keep for just 35,000 CR, making it cheaper than the 2010 BMW M6. What I got it here was just a hundred thousand's worth of dreams...

This would be perfect for the Japanese motoring magazine...

If you were some kind of a Japanese businessman driving this V12-powered BMW 8-Series and if you had a girl sitting next to you, she would say "You know what, I don't really understand what kind of a car you're driving" and he would show the scene; That Mt. Fuji, the touge, this car, and say "That's what makes a petrolhead". This is what I'm dreaming of; Driving the 850CSi at the twists and turns of Fujimi Kaido on FM4, doing this.

As an advertisement for some Japanese petrol station, it's hard to think of anything which could beat this...probably...

Thank Forza Motorsport 4 for this ride that brings back my childhood memories...
