2015 BMW 7 Series - Hair raising ride
2015 BMW 750iL is a sexy ride with responsive handling. The twin-turbo, 4.4-Liter V-8 makes 445 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque, and these models can charge to 60 mph in an automaker-cited 4.7 Seconds. The 760Li might sound like one of the performance leaders of the group—and it is, with 537 hp from its twin-turbo V-12--but it's the portly one in the lineup. The true athlete here is the performance-focused Alpina B7, which has a special version of the V-8 underhood that makes 540 horsepower and 538 pound-feet. In addition to that, you get a suspension that's firmer than any of the other models can manage in Sport mode, as well as bigger brakes, and other enhancements. The 0-60 mph time is just 4.5 Seconds here. The all-new 740Ld xDrive is powered by a 3.0-Liter turbo-diesel inline six, capa... (more)
Story
Driving it in along big sur in California. The car handles the curve in masterful and dynamic way. You feel as one with the car as it takes the curves @ 70mph
Pros
Quick, powerful and responsive. It sure turn some heads
Cons
Not MPG friendly. An overwhelming array of interior electronics and computers. Twin turbo would be costly to repair. High cost of ownership
2015 BMW 7 Series - It's absolutely great and reliable.
My BMW 750 is absolutely great. The exterior is well sculpted like it was stone, and the paint is always bright, and it's as beautiful as the leather soft touch interior. All gauges are bright and readable at any point of the day. It could use some more foot room, but it's sufficient. Driving and acceleration are first class; I'm passing just about everyone any time I step on the throttle.
Story
A fun memory was when me and my son drove up to Orlando, and we went to island of adventure theme park. The drive up was fairly comfortable in the driver and passenger seats. Also, the air conditioner was ice cold the entire trip.
Pros
The top positive things about this vehicle were the engine and its performance and the lovely interior. Acceleration on this vehicle is absolutely great, no hiccups, and there's a ton of power throughout the entire rpm band. The interior is also beautiful: all the leather is high quality and very supportive.
Cons
Then only negative is that I'm a big guy, so I would like to have more leg room. Also, some headroom would be nice as well and also some more cup holders.
