  • 745 Li an Awesome Ride - 2005 BMW 7-Series

    This is the flagship on the road, what a wonderful ride either on short or long trips, this car will turn heads!

  • My 745Li is practically perfect! - 2005 BMW 7-Series
    By -

    After eight months with my new 745Li, I have had not a single complaint! It rides and drives like a magic carpet. The features, including I-Drive, become more simple and user-friendly the longer I have the car. It is smooth and silent on the highway. Handling is tight and incredibly responsive. I love the sound system. The integrated hands-free phone is very good. I dont use the voice activated features much, but should get used to it more. Navigation system is great with accurate computer-determined arrival time. The back seat is huge and very comfortable. I really like the rear/side sunshade screens in our hot Florida summer. Lives up to its "Ultimate Driving Machine" title!

    I have owned a 1998 528, 2001 M3 which I currently still own. Although, the looks could be better they do grow on you. The quality and the way this car drives is awesome. I also love the phone in the car and also like the iDrive. It is a little hard to learn everything but once you get it down I can operate it without taking my eyes off the road. Hope this helps.

  • The Perfect Luxury Sedan - 2005 BMW 7-Series
    By -

    The BMW 760i is arguably the best buy that I have made. Although the styling is a complete change from the beloved previous-gen 7er, it remains a statement to the trust and courage of BMW. Cruising down the highway is no problem, and at 100 mph on the Texas panhandle with all your friends, nothing can be more enjoyable (exept on the autobahn, of course)

  • BMW 7 Series - Own It - Understand It! - 2005 BMW 7-Series
    By -

    The 7 Series is a truly great car. After owning 4 other 7s, I believe I can speak with some authority. Whenever a review is written, all aspects of the car are praised except the styling and the IDrive. The styling is a matter of taste. But, for all the 7s I have owned, this one gets the most positive comment. It is the true definition of "Road Presence". IDrive is an initial attempt to provide extensive information and operations into a "user friendly" interface. True, it takes some getting use to, but, once learned it provides all the information and control a person requires. One does not have to access all its functions. But, it is good to know you can.

    Love the car has great performance. Has a preppy feel to it, can really rip

  • NIRVANA - 2005 BMW 7-Series

    This is the ultimate driving machine. The idrive is fun and despite other reviews, user friendly. The ride is exhilerating and offers handling surpassing other cars in its class. I found the seating adjustments a little difficult to comfort my 6 plus frame when compared to the A8. The premiun sound system is great and easy to control.

  • WOW - 2005 BMW 7-Series

    have the car for 3 weeks now and I love it, the drive is awesome and the perf is great. Had the s500 before and now I finally see real german engine.

  • 2004 bmw 745 i - 2005 BMW 7-Series
    By -

    I just love that car 26000 miles and I have had no problems .

  • BMW 760LI - 2005 BMW 7-Series
    By -

    It is a beutiful and refined car. I may be a gas guzzler but for anyone who can afford a $100,000 + car it should be no problem. It handles great, accelerates great and it has a V-12. The inside is spacious and comfortable. the outside it beutiful and sporty.
