BMW 840

The BMW 840 is a sporty coupe from the E31 series, which was produced in the period from 1993 to 1996 6 Series sports car, successor of the BMW Coupe (E24). Motorised was the BMW 840 as a new car from a gasoline engine with nearly 4.0 - liter engine, which generates around 286 hp from the 8-cylinder. Thus, the 2-door coupe is up to a governed top speed of 250 km / h and accelerates the cars in 7.9 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h BMW 840 is connected in either a 6-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission, which could be ordered as optional equipment on new cars.
