All New 2016 BMW 7 Series

[jude2]

A few people I know bought bmws the last couple of years and have had nothing but major faults costing an arm and a leg.  I'll stick with my Audi.

They must be buying high milage used cars.  They are fully covered for 4 for years or 50K miles if bought new and 7 years 100k miles if bought used?

Yup - he has no need for....

- comfortable seats (The 1975 Cadillac Eldorado had more comfortable seats than anything made today)
- Sound proofing (You could not hear a thing in my 1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible it ran so quiet inside and out.)
- decent suspension (My 1975 Cadillac floated like a dream)
- 10 speaker Harman Kardon sound system (ipod on wheels)  (I once spent 2500 dollars in a sound system in a Jeep Wrangler, insane sound quality and you can do this with any car if you want)
- 8 speed triptronic gearbox ( Never had a problem with my Lotus Esprit Gearbox.  No idea why you would want a pseudo manual that takes the fun out of a true manual)
- ABS (True sports cars do not have this actually)
- Run Flat Tires (pointless)
- Airbags (pointless really.  Ruins the steering wheel.  The steering wheel on my 1960 Plymouth Fury was a piece of art)
- Crumple zones (the reason cars look like shit today is because of these)
- Traction control (unneeded, takes the fun out of driving)
- Hands free phone (just stupid.  I don't need a hands on phone so why would I need a hands free one?)
- GPS (he probably uses a sexton and compass because maps are so passe) (I have a GPS unit if I need it from Garmin and I usually do not need it at all)

Nope - he'd rather spend $20k on an uncomfortable, unsafe tank that guzzles fuel and get's beaten at the lights by a hairdresser driving a 1.8 liter BMW on the way to do a blow dry.

All because of the possibility he can sell it for $20.5k when he's done - to make up for the additional $30k he spent on fuel.

Fixed.  Hope this helps!

I keep my cars years and years if I want.

At any time I choose to sell, I can sell them for more than I paid.


I pity people who have no clue how to do this.

Sorry buddy - I forget you are a have not and probably need that profit. How much could you possibly earn?? 5-10 grand??  Unless you are flipping a few a week (which I know the desperate big eared insurance adjuster isnt doing).  Seriously - I dont fault any man for finding ways to earn. Everyone starts somewhere. Good luck to ya man... If you are happy in your car then cool.. I might donate one of mine to you when I want another. Dont keep em long and none are all that old ... You might earn a tidy profit and I will feel good for helping the needy

Yup- helps show how delusional you are.

[pedro01]

But no videos or pics of your own car? Strange.

[Palumboism]

Fixed.  Hope this helps!

A work of art?  

[The True Adonis]

A work of art?  

Yep.

Called an Aero Wheel and is actually pretty legendary in styling in the classic automotive world.  Look it up.  There are a few just in Schools of Art and Design.

Another awesome Mercedes!

I really don't think TA is as well off as people say.


I bet he's a broke bottom bitch.

You ok?

[visualizeperfection]

You ok?

I'm just middle class lifestylin' in my 2012 E class.


I still don't think you're anything special financially.

To me, the e38 was the last "good looking" 7 series.

this, i had a e38 and it was the best car i ever had.

Who the hell wants to drive an old ass car.  I expect to loose money. But I also get to enjoy driving a much more refined car.

Rowan Atkins' "old" Mclaren F1 just sold for 12 million. There are many old cars that are investments. Also, many of the older cars have more character, and in certain ones, like the e38, and the e28 M5, e34 M5, e39 M5, e46 M3, Porsche 930 Turbo, 964 Turbo, they drive differently..it's a different experience---talk to those who have driven said cars.

Looks like something from the Jetsons.

I think I'll stick with a little understated German interior, personally (although I am sure Adonis will admire the little pink Barbie bicycle in the background)

ROFLAMO!  A8.

What a joke.  Those things you can get so cheap after year one even.

Too bad cumface, you still wouldn't be able to afford it even after 5 years.

Or the people who don't care about cars. Not every guy is a "car guy." No matter how much money I had, I would never be obsessive about cars like Parker is. I'd most likely be obsessive about other things, just not cars.

BMW peaks in the 3series and 4series esp the coupe 4 series, that's one sexy car...the upper models just aren't as appealing and the 7 series is the least appealing model of all....Mercedes still rules the bigger luxury executive car range.

You don't need to obsess about cars to appreciate a new bmw / mercedes. Those people with all their mental gymnastics about how they wouldnt want a car like  are just bitter poor people.

I liked the e39 m5 carbon black would have liked to have one...I had 2 e60's and I had 335 2007 when it came out...
