Ok, that explains it. Whew. Maybe they're pretty good prices after all. I went on Ebay after I replied to you and found several decent 850 coupes for under $9000 USD. So, what is that, about $10,700 CAD?
The deep red color seems to be very popular, and looks great, IMO. You can tell which car I'd buy, can't you? ;-)
Good luck and happy BMW shopping.
