Looking for a cool car that ladies will love? One with a provenance that includes perhaps rap’s most convoluted sexual analogy? Feast your eyes on LL Cool J’s 1991 BMW 850i, yours for a mere $ 14,000.


Yes, LL’s sleek big-body coupe is on the market in Illinois. Sharp-eyed fans who remember the 1990s will recognize it as the vehicular star of the “Pink Cookies In a Plastic Bag Getting Crushed by Buildings” music video, wherein Mr. Cool J explains from the driver’s seat that “the act of making love is pink cookies in a plastic bag, getting crushed by buildings.” Right.

A lot has changed since 1993. LL successfully pivoted from sex-thirsty BMW driver to NCIS Special Agent. And that V-12 Bimmer racked up 73,000 miles, losing those ’90s-tastic Momo Quasar wheels for a more subdued, less chrome-y set of deep-dishes.

The price to own an early ’90s automotive powerhouse once driven by an icon of rap isn’t so bad, and you can unleash its 292 horsepower, 332 lb-ft of torque, and, per our original test, 6.3-second sprint to 60 mph on someone whom your momma told you to knock out. Just save a little extra for stereo upgrades—this Bimmer may have sweet V-12 sounds, but it’s missing LL’s boomin’ system.
