    Can't believe Jay is going to be 75 in a month...I'm glad he's still doing well and making these videos not only for us, but for himself and his own enjoyment. Jay is living the dream, and giving us the chance to live it vicariously.

    Jason is an underrated treasure of automotive journalism. Glad he gets to wear this 850CSI any day he chooses. 👍🏼Such a beautiful example of German design and engineering. 😍🤩

    Short gears, small classy grill. "Painfully beautiful" is exactly how I felt when I saw my first one. I have a 93 V12 850Ci (S70). Manual is the only way to go. It's the "ultimate driving machine" which means you have to DRIVE it. Love at first sight. Had mine for 18 years. Still going strong.

    The car was ahead of its time, BMW enthusiasts were not prepared for this masterpiece!

    “I’m not here for the sandwich…”😆 Talk about the greatest honor having Jay Leno tell you he loves learning about cars from you. Wow…😮 Thanks Gents!

    “I drive to amuse myself” is probably the greatest thing I’ve ever heard a car guy say.

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81HOFhh1Mm8&amp;t=339">5:39</a> Mad props for the Jay Leno&apos;s team for doing the work to give genius Klaus Kapitza his due. No kidding - I absolutely adore this 8-series and Kapitza deserves to be remembered for it.
