  • Best car I have ever owned in the past 50 years

    This is my third BMW - after a 328 and a 528. Everyone gets better than the the last one. The cameras are outstanding for someone who had neck surgery with limited mobility. As for power, the engine has more than I would need unless I were in a James Bond movie. The mileage per gallon is great - so far averaging about 27 combined city and highway. As to styling, in three months I have at least twenty unsolicited comments in parking lots, gas station fill ups, and stoplights about what a beautiful car it is. As someone who changes the oil every five thousand miles (and had no problems with the first two BMWs with about 75 thousand miles), I expect this to be my last car. It well could last me 20 years. I could not be more happy or hopeful about this vehicle.

  • Treat yourself to this car

    This is my dream car. It has more features than I imagined. I am getting so spoiled with its smooth drive and comfortable interior. Recommend it highly.

  • Fabulous luxury car

    I got the 7-series because there was little room in the back seat of 5-series I previously drove. The big sedan carries 5 very comfortably, quietly and quickly. It is a terrific vehicle. Is it 5 times as good as an Accord? Maybe not, so I dinged it for 'value,' but everything else about this car is superb. As it should be for the money. If you can afford one, I highly recommend that you get one.
