Love the way the car handles on the open highway. BMW manitance is high at the dealer. It is best to have a handyman/car mechanic nearby to save on cost.
Love driving the car smooth take off and a lot of power.May 19, 2015

I love this car, the look and ride is definitely 5 stars. I like in Illinois so the snow is a big deal, the rwd driving in snow was sort of a hassle for me commuting 30 minutes daily back and forth to work. Mar 29, 2015

The car looks great, handles corners great. The torque, speed, smoothness of the drive makes it fun. The best part of this vehicle is the looks and handling. I wish BMW did not get rid of the back end. That is may favorite part.Mar 28, 2015

This is a great automobile. It is fun to drive and provides one of the smoothest and quietest rides of any car I have ever experienced. It defines luxury, style, performance, and class. I will own another one very soon.Aug 27, 2014

It was my first BMW and I still own her. She drives like a champion. Smooth and feels like I'm floating. For the age of it I still get a lot of compliments and offers to purchase it. I don't have any plans on passing it on anytime soon. I'm still less than 100k miles and I've only had to replace the starter. Regular maintenance is the key to keeping this beauty rolling.Aug 02, 2014

I really enjoyed driving this car on the highway. We took a few trips to Georgia and the Carolinas and it was easy to handle at high speeds. The seats are very comfortable with heating or cooling when the conditions permit. It took a little practice getting used to the I-drive computer system although once I understood it I liked it.Oct 11, 2013

I have owned many high end sports vehicles, at the present time I believe I have purchased the best money can buy in our 745LI. Comfort, style and drive are all to be commended as the top of comparable auto's sold. The price is still a bit pricey, but no question can be in doubt regarding all the features we were looking for in a car. Overall, the BMW is an amazing car well put together. It has everything you need, the exterior is amazing, the interior is luxurious, and the engine produces more power than you would think. This car is simply the dominant vehicle when compared to it's competitors. I would definitely recommend this magnificent car if your in the market for a 7 series.Oct 19, 2012

All I have to say about this car, is that it is the best car I have ever driven. It
amazes me how smooth the ride quietly is, but some how the suspensions are
stiff enough to prevent body roll. The BMW 7-Series is basically my old Buick
Park Avenue and my Nissan Altima 3.5SE, put together which is the kind of car I
like.
Abundant interior space, with comfortable reclining Rear Seats.
What is there not to like about this car, except for the price?
This vehicle is a must have!

This is a fabulous all-around family sedan with practically every luxury option imaginable. A big secret to many people is that these 7 Series BMW's are such a bargain once they get a couple of years old. They do not hold their value like the smaller BMW's, especially the 3 Series cars. That means there are some serious bargains to be had if you are OK with buying a used car. Most of the people who buy these cars new tend to take good care of them and don't abuse them when they drive. The trunk is enormous and the back seat in the Li model is large enough to have a party. It really feels like a limo. I have several other cars so do not drive this one all the time. When i do I am always struck by what a great car it is.Apr 25, 2012

I like the look of the car, clean lines, not much chrome real black on black car. Although pretty large it is quick enough to compete with much smaller vehicles and the handling is PURE BMW. When you need a large sedan that has get up and go this is an all time favorite!Mar 05, 2012

Performance is terrific, this car has grunt and sounds incredible when accelerating hard, nice sound with V8 rumble. The main thing about this car is that although a large relatively heavy car it doesn't feel like that to drive at all. It handles incredibly well and if fact I have to keep reminding myself that it's not a hot hatch. The combination of dynamic drive and 20 inch wheels give it unbelievable cornering ability for a car this size. The dynamic drive means virtually no body roll! Brakes are awesome as well. The car is quiet and beautifully damped so that even with the large wheels it still rides incredibly well. 12.4L per 100 average fuel economy is nothing to complain about either....the trade off for not going for a 5.0 litre V8 as so many others do! Interior is once again beautifully finished and a great place to spend time. The leather seats are club leather and trimmed to perfection. I am shocked that the Motoring journalists complained about IDrive as it is so simple system to use and works well, I have no complaints with it - i would hate to see these guys on their computers if they have trouble with Idrive! Exterior looks very classy and works well with the 20 inch wheels. My wife thinks it looks nice as well...it has some attitude but understated and classy too! Ownership is an absolute pleasure, service is on required approximately every two years or (approx 20,000 kms) or according to the BMW computer which really reduces the time spent in service. All in all a great car, shame some other motorists are so opinionated as they really are missing out LOLOct 20, 2011

This car is very addictive to drive. It does not drive like the large sedan that it is; instead it feels like I am driving a small sports car with great handling, acceleration, braking, performance, and very smooth ride, but yet still stiff enough to cut those tight corners and pass which makes the car really fun. 0-60 in only 4.5 seconds which is very fast for a tall, large, heavy sedan.
All in all; this car is worth EVERY penny of $85,000 that it is worth brand new.May 18, 2011

this is has good power and a comfy ride. The 4.4 liter motor makes this car fly. I love the stability on this car. The 19" wheels makes this car hug corners like a train on tracks. enough said. peaceDec 20, 2010

I had this full equipped 750 longversion... my backpassengers had always fun like hell and the car is amazing. Sure - best of the best, we Germans build that year! But even this huge sedan had an incredible handling. I raced it ones through the rushhour against a small powerful roadster...and was impressed how easy to move this 2tons. But the real advatage is to travel in it...you don't need a living-room anylonger and you can drive for hours at highest speed. And BMW will always have the better handling than the S-class or a front or 4wd Audi 8 !Mar 18, 2008

Plenty of room in the back and front. Navigation, DVD, and other gizmo's all come standard. Also the BMW V8 really gets going for how heavy the car is. Feb 06, 2008

BMW's 7 series is to say the least one of the most amazing vehicles I have ever driven. However, all that fancy german technology comes at a cost. And, I'm not talking about money. It is very difficult to figure out how to use BMW's i-drive system. You need a user's manual to put it in drive! However, after some lessons, and practice, the car is simply amazing. Jan 23, 2008

Most people don't get to drive a BMW 745i, but I owned one a couple of years back. This car was by far the best car I've ever owned. It turned heads everywhere I went and the ladies absolutely loved it. It was all black and had 20" black painted wheels. The interior had slate gray leather with some suede accents.Sep 21, 2007
