Ugly exterior, idrive is terrible, probably the only thing that's good about it is how big it is and the 7-series badging on the trunk.

I'm bias though, I love the last generation 7 series.

Shoulda went with the 760Li :D

that thing would be :bigpimp:

just take a limo to grad, who wants to drive their dads 7-series of all things to grad....plus that way you cant get shitfaced...
If it was like a ferrari, and somehow ur dad let u drive it, then that would be sweet...

Oh, btw, its a bmw, its never on time...better have a backup plan

and what makes u think ur gonna be able to drive it, after what u did to ur dads truck :rolleyes:

last time i heard it is a g note for a limo.

Well i heard prices this year were around 100$ each for 10 people, so maybe prices went up, or we got a deal cause we bookd it really early :dunno:

How many other people did you split the bill with cause those things go for way more than 75 bucks for 3 hours. More like $200/hr. but for a grad you can get a bit of a deal but not that good.

worst 7 series of all time in regards to reliability. good luck with that though. build a good relationship with the service dept. of the dealer now so they dont try and fuck fuck fuck you up. (sorry if you didnt know this, but in that case you really should have done more research)

:bigpimp: !

nice !

If you like Aggressive look, and good handling HUGE sedan, 745Li is the way to go ! and from 2003 and on, they are very realiable, (2002 and early 2003 got software problem)

However, for people like just comfort ride,soft suspension,don't care handling, and want "tradional" look, get a S500L. ( still tons of problems from the first 2 yr production ! )

For older people, want a good luxury car, and less problems... get the LS430.

For people don't know how to drive a RWD in winter ... get the A8L. :rofl:


Anyway, it is a nice car, how can a $130,000 car not nice ?

However, turbo_equiped, I am sure lots of people will pick on you ! ( or just jealous ? ) :dunno:

motor trend just talked about the lexus being a pimp and that a 8 year old gs 400 is better than a brand new 745i. (i think it was motor trend).

but dont get me wrong, i AM jealous. Its a very hot car. I like them muchly (hated them when they first came out)

Yeah well there's proboly lots of other cars other there that are better for the money in your opinon. Its this kid's dads car! those cars are nice but they are ment for the middle aged to old guy with lots of money. They are not to compete with ferrari's or something. His dad just wants class and luxury. My dad owns a 760li and he has no problems what so ever with it.

:thumbsup:

Good for you !

they are nice !

My dad has a 03 745Li, a very nice car, and it is nice to drive ! compare to his 03 S500L, 7 is more sporty, however, both cars have lots of small problems too.

(my folks are in HK, there is nothing special having those cars, I saw more New 7 series then new Accord over there, and those are his car, none of my business anyway ! I just ride on those cars few times a year. :zzz: )

Good for you ! next step is going to get yourself a nice BMW ! :thumbsup: :zzz:

Why do people brag about that cars that their parents buy?

"Look at what my dad bought! He works hard for his money! I am such a pimp."

Agree ! good point ! :thumbsup: that is why I don't care what my parents drive ! and I won't like the cars they drive anyway ! :bigpimp: ( not yet ! )

I guess some people are just so excited about cars, especially on $120K car ! however in some other countries, having a Benz or a BMW .. is just a common thing.

hey thanks guys for all the positive feedback as well as the negative
its really appreciated
my dad is that kinda person he likes the sporty type cars but luxury and all that as well
he looked at Mercedes's as well but didnt like any as much as this one
he says they are for old rich people (and offcourse who would like to call themselves old even if they are 45)
lol well thats just his opinion and his money so he got it but i wanted him to get that too beacause i like this car as well

and no i am not trying to show off or anything i just wanted to see some people's opinion on this
it doesnt mean i am trying to showoff or brag about this there is no point because the car aint mine anyways its his
he worked hard for it made money got it i aint gonna get anything
anyways once again thanks for all the opinion:thumbsup:
