Reviving & Driving 600 Miles a Broken V12 BMW E31 850i While on Honeymoon - Project Phoenix
Honeymoon with a broken V12 BMW that's been off the road for 7 years. Sounds perfect, right? Well, it is! I found this time capsule, a totally original 1991 E31 850i with the rare 6-speed manual transmission in a garage in Phoenix, Arizona. The plan is to revive right there on the spot and drive it to California.

About BMW E31
The BMW E31 is the first generation of the BMW 8 Series. It is a grand tourer built by BMW from 1990 to 1999 as a 2-door coupé, powered by either a V8 or V12 engine. Whilst it did supplant the original E24 based 6 Series in 1990, it was not a direct successor, but a new model class with a substantially higher price and performance than the 6 Series.
