Description[]
The BMW 850i was a Mattel-acquired Corgi Toys tooling that was first released in the Auto-City line from 1994. Similar to other Corgi Toys toolings, this casting did not have any releases in other Hot Wheels lines until it’s first mainline appearance in 1996.
Although similar to Hot Wheels' own BMW 850i casting, the Corgi tooling is slightly larger and features opening doors among other differences.
