Surely - this is the best looking BMW. I would cut off important parts of my body to own one of these....

Nah.
But the Z8 does it for me everytime, even if it isn't the most dynamic driving machine.
This one at Motorworld yesterday could be urs for a smidge under €1/4m!

I know the owner of one of the 4 M1's on the road in the UK. White, just like your photo. Lovely car, but very cramped cockpit.

Hard to believe when they were brand new the dealers couldn't sell them , I remember Quentin Wilson saying on some car show that they were discounted to 50k to drive off the showroom floor .

That's easy - E86 obviously! :rofl:

Joking aside, I think the best have already been mentioned - as in Z8, M1, Batmobile and 507. But I'd add the 2002 Turbo, M635CSi and E39 M5 to the list.
Coupes because stunning!
