BMW 740iL - 2000 BMW 7-Series
By Big Bob - June 3 - 4:13 pmMileage per gallon - excellent. In the low country of S.C., highway at 5 mph over the speed limit (usually 75), gets 27.5 mph! Response to accelerator - great! Handling on curves, u-turns - unbelieveable. Wheels have never been out-of-line!

740i Sport - 2000 BMW 7-Series
By beemerb - March 24 - 4:21 pmThis has been an excellent vehicle to own! I wouldnt have it any other way, and Im probably hooked on BMW for life! I plan on keeping my 740i sport for a long time, while I add new vehicles to my arsenal. I have had some problems with it however, the radiator did crack and cost me 1500 to get a new one. This was the only downfall it had, and I missed my car the whole time it was getting fixed. I hate the cupholders, but in every relationship there is one quality we dont like about out spouse, but loving those faults is what makes love in a relationship.

VERY Expensive to Maintain - 2000 BMW 7-Series
By Frank - March 7 - 7:02 amWithout question, this is the greatest car I have ever driven. Unfortunately, it is also the most expensive car on the planet to drive. Since the car went out of warranty in Oct 2005, Ive had to put nearly $20k into the car. Something seems to fail every six months, and as someone else noted the cost of a typical repair is anywhere from $700 to $4,500. Ive had many different mechanics work on the car, and all say the same thing: Best car to drive, worst car in terms of maintenance. Expect to put $5,000 into the car each year for repairs/maintenance. You mat get 300k miles out of the engine, but itll cost ya $300k to do it! That said, the BEST ride on the road, hands down!

2000 740IL Cosmos Black on Black - 2000 BMW 7-Series
By Dave Hilton - June 17 - 2:49 pmThis is a Classic Luxury Sports Car. I had always wanted one. But make no mistake, this is an extremely expensive car to fix/repair. A $78K auto of this level of sophistication is very touchy. So be prepared.
