Also, Mercedes plans to make a convertible version of the CL available in the 2006 model, and would definitely be a competitor with the 645Ci convertible. it should be interesting.

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
i do not know why they would release an 8. if you remember, when the 8 was released it was a replacement of the 6 series in the 2 door sports segment. that is why they were never ran concurrently, and thus why they wont be ran concurrently. . .

Can't help it...
Hey guys,
Just was browsing on the web to look for the 845ci... I was driving yesterday (am based in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur), and I saw a dark blue BMW 845 ci.. was driving behind it. Looked for the model number, as I hadn't seen it before anywhere.. and yup... 845CI... no joke... I am sure all u guys have much more knowledge than I have.. but the pic shown before of the 645ci is not the same.. the 845 ci has a different shape at the back, looks somehow like the new 5 series combined with the audi tt... Let's see whether I will see the car again when I go to Europe next week.. I'll keep ya posted! |

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
People, please understand. You are seeing a 645Ci. I've seen the badges in the 6's and from a certain distance they appear to say 845. It's just the way the badges are shaped. There is no such thing as an 845, and there are no immediate plans of even producing an 8. my sister's friend's dad is Jim McDowell, VP of Sales and Marketing in BMW of NA, and I asked him and he says there is no such thing and there are no immediate plans of a new 8 because right now there is no such market for one. and before anyone else claims to have seen one, TAKE A PICTURE, THIS WAY WE WILL ACTUALLY BELIEVE ALL OF YOU IF YOU GIVE US SOME HARD EVIDENCE. DON't BE CHEAP AND DO A FREAKIN PHOTOSHOP. And if you think you see one, clarify that you're not seeing 645 and not 845. Secondly, if they had a new 8 concept on the streets, it would be all covered up and there would be no identifiable badges on the car. Again, there's no such thing!

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
And lemme clarify, this is what you are seeing. Yes, the badge at this distance and at that resolution looks like 845 when it is 645.

yesterday, i saw the "845CI" and i took a picture. I'm sure it was an "eight", and not a "six". I think it a joke, cause the car looks exactly like the 645ci..... maybe the owner changed the number by himself to confuse us? =)

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
It is a 645. Take a closer picture next time. PLease stop trying to prove the existence of a new 8-Series because there is no new 8-series. Why can't you just face it? The badge BMW manufactures has a small gap in the six which distinguishes it as being a six rather than an eight.
Secondly, look at my second to last post.

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
The coupe had the V12 badging, I could be wrong about the convertible after looking at some of the pictures posted here (maybe a 645) - I'll take a closer look.

You have to be kidding me. Go to www.bmwusa.com and look for the 8-series. I promise you that there isn't one.

Re: New Bmw 8 Series?!?
Yeah, I know it's not listed on their web-site. What new models offer the V12?
