This car was trouble free for over 130,000 miles. Had plenty of power and rode very comfortably. It was even quiet going down the road and handled the curves well.
The seats were very comfortable, and everyone was impressed with this car.Nov 05, 2015

This car is a great car it rides smoothly maintenance is expensive even for the little things. I would recommend that you try to do it yourself. Its fun to drive. Its a safe car . Power is good brakes too. Feb 28, 2014

Loved the interior space, power & heated rear seats with footrests give rear passengers a limousine quality feel. This car is a treat to drive both long & short distances. It handles smoothly, cruises well and has power quietly in reserve from the V12 powerplant whenever brisk acceleration is called for. Sep 14, 2012

comfortable and luxury
to be frank, I don't like this type car before, after my friend sold to me cheaply, I found this car has a good handling also, same as other BMW, as a family man like me, it's great for my family for them to have a good embarkation.
