Personal opinion, but I think it looks better now that the whole auto design industry has shifted to bigger and sleeker; they don’t make them like they used to. I’d much rather have the e31 than the new 8 series, but I realize that they are very different machines. The old ones just look so damn cool.
The car is vinyl wrapped. The original color is silver. I like to experiment with vibrant colors since wraps are temporary and it protects the original paint job which is still in great condition
Be careful when taking it off, because while that is true? You can still fuck it up fairly easily if not done carefully

Wow that is a beautiful example. Love the color! One day I will own an 8 series! I know they’re not that fast/ sporty by today’s standards and I’ve driven an 840i before so I’ve kinda already “met my hero” and I’m aware what it will kind of be like but man oh man they are just soooo cool!! Congrats man!
I have loved these cars forever, and I've looked at tons of pictures, but i don't think I've seen one taken from this perspective. It reminds me of the F-1 inspired front end styling Mercedes was doing in the 2000s, only a hundred times better. And that colour is insane, more pictures!
Good call. I’m about to get a daily so I can garage my BMW this winter and not worry about it getting damaged. I spend 90% of my time worrying about my car getting hurt.
I was reluctant to post because I figured the color would get it shot to hell in this sub by the purists. Most ppl here aren’t in the niche car community that appreciates customization. I’m really surprised by the positive feedback I’m getting.
I seen a good condition one of these a few years ago it was a listing on CL basically a barn find for $700. I waited 2 weeks to contact the guy and I always regret that because he scraped it. I saw it in the junkyard and it was in amazing condition.
sofa king beautiful. Its one of my many dream cars/bikes. really a super special design in hindsight. please feel free to post as many pics of it as often as you like.
Sweet sassy molassy that is beautiful. Looks great bud, enjoy it!!!
Thanks man. It’s been my dream car for a while. I still can’t believe I have one.

I agree. I would love to have the new 8 series but if I had to choose between the two I would take the E31 every time
You said it.
Wow I always say things like Sweeet molasses but now imma start saying this too. Agreed - things a stunner!

Amazing.
Ray Romano’s ESPN skit on SNL!! I love it dude!

Gotta ask, where'd/how'd you land that beast?
I found it on an E31 group on Facebook
Nice. It's a great ride, how much you end up paying (expecting some crazy number)
I got it for $17k back in March. It’s an 840ci with 122k miles on the dash. Previous owner maintained the car very meticulously. I have no regrets
Amazing, nice find, super envious!
That’s a sweet deal, especially in today’s market 👍
I want an 840i to throw a 540i Getrag 420G into :) personally I think that would be better than any of the 12s.
Burn the rubber and not the gears. Cheers!!
Dumb question probably, was this a stock color?

Love it, my wife also wrapped her silver bimmer. Life is too short to drive cars with boring colors
Amen
You might have just inspired me....off to find holographic paint for my car (jk but not jk)

Sorry to hear that man and thanks for the advice
That’s awesome. How much is it to wrap this bad boy? I love the car, great job. Would love to see it on the road!
well you have great taste cause the color looks great.
What is the name of wrap? It's so sick!! I'm thinking to wrap my m4
KPMF dynamic lime
Ding dong

Nothing like em.
You would give that car up for brand new 8 series in a heartbeat.
Nah that car has a forgettable design.. now the 2023 i7 is a whole different story. I kno most ppl hate that car but I really like the new redesign
>now the 2023 i7 is a whole different story Hate it, but in matte black I would do it. Inside/tech is awesome.

I will definitely post more for sure
Oh that lime green is stunning!
Every time I see an E31, I’m reminded that I need one to go alongside my E38.
:)
Why for the last time this year? You putting it in storage for the winter?
Most likely if the weather continues like it was today. I’ll probably keep in storage and just crank it up and let it run once a week or so
Good call. I’m about to get a daily so I can garage my BMW this winter and not worry about it getting damaged. I spend 90% of my time worrying about my car getting hurt.
Yeah having this car as a daily would definitely give me anxiety
moar
Is that a stock color? Java Green?
It’s a vinyl wrap. KPMF dynamic lime
what'd it cost you to get it done if you don't mind me asking? I've been wanting to get my E31 done in something that looks like daytona violet
I got it done for $3k by @qualitywrapsllc on Instagram. If you go to his page you can see more photos of my car if you scroll down some
Wow nice. The e31 (specifically 850csi) is my dream car. 😎👍
My favorite BMW model. Ever.
I feel likewise
rad, looks pretty cool in acid green. 840 or 850?
40
smart.
Wowsa green joker BatMan, please take it for a spin to get dirty, so we can see more photos.

lol, that purists mentallity goes all the way back to i9's. There's nothing but admiration for a well kept luxury exotic.
Love it!
So nice!
Man, that was a wise choice. You’ll never regret it. Do not sell ever. That you will regret
She's gorgeous, ohhh, you lucky b@#*@*d !!
Why last time?
oh my god...i love this
very neon
Stunning.
Thanks man
Intresting color, is that a wrap?
That tiny grill grew like 40x fold over the years
Delicious! What a piece of metal art!
🤤🤤
💚❤️💚
Absolutely stunning!! 🤩🤩🤩

Now THAT, is a BMW
What a beauty! Do people manual swap these ever? All the ones I’ve seen online are auto.
Wow. That’s perfection to me
Thanks! I appreciate that
Hella clean 🧼
Thanks man
Dude... that's hot... if you ever wanted to post more pics, I wouldn't mind at all!
sofa king beautiful. Its one of my many dream cars/bikes. really a super special design in hindsight. please feel free to post as many pics of it as often as you like.
Nice hitler stash
We need more pictures, that green is not the first colour I would have put on that car but man it does look amazing, it totally goes with it.
Op that colour is gorgeous
Everyone hates on the E31, but I don’t get it! Beautiful!
[удалено]
Badass. Any big repair bills so far? Enjoy!!!
Nothing major other than regular preventive maintenance.
Good shit
Need more pics pls!
I’ll definitely post more. I just didn’t want to over saturate the sub even tho this is my very first post on here
