    I always had a soft spot for the 850CSi.



    The Porsche does have its charms, though.

    I've always loved 8 series BMWs.

    The 928 GTS is an excellent car to drive ... from what I hear it has much more character than the BMW.

    I never liked the styling of the 8 series BMW for some reason. The 928 is much sexier and like :Exige: says, it's an excelent car to drive (I've read) with more character....it's a Porsche after all.

    BMW don't really produce 'bedroom wall poster' cars, but this is definately one of them. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if it weren't for the pocket-emptying running costs.

    I can't belive you guys are preferring the lardy 8 series?!

    928 all the way. Beautiful machine, both technically and aesthetically.
