Impressive Ride!! - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By jtb444 - November 11 - 2:00 amFinally got the car Ive wanted for years in great shape with only one prior owner. Love the power and the looks. I cant see myself in the 2002+ model. Minor mechanicals but great dealer service at very reasonable prices compared to my wifes Volvo dealer. Son loves it!!

My new used car is great - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By NewUsed BMW - September 11 - 2:00 amI was lucky to leave the lot with this car after shopping for an E-Class or 5 series, my bank showed me the value of the 7 series by not financing the smaller cars to my liking. Next thing I know, I am driving the Ultimate Driving Machine flagship car. Just lucky, I guess. Everyone interested in used cars, should check the loan values and learn it is easier to get the flagship BMW than to settle for something less. E-Class is less.

Absolutely Love It!!! - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By beemerguy - August 7 - 2:00 amI have owned several BMWs, but this is by far the nicest most pleasureable one to drive. Maintaining it is worth it since it has all the attributes of a sports car and the accomodations of a luxury sedan. Super for business or family.

fun and pleasure - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By jere - July 21 - 2:00 amHave owned car about 16 months. Fun to drive, especially on trips. Some problems I wouldnt expect...radiator replacement, valve gaskets...but have found a reasonable repair shop. Looking for a 2001.

my 740i - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By rickter - June 29 - 2:00 amIt is an awesome vehicle, but it costs to keep them going. I had the same problem with the "check taillight" alert. It is due to water getting in the rear light assembly. Costs about $300 to get both fixed. This car really scoots and is very fast and fun to drive. Its worth the $

Great Performance AND Luxury ! - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By MKTViper - April 5 - 2:00 amThe 750iL is unlike any car Ive driven. The V12 accelerates so smoothly and quietly it feels like a (very powerful) electric car. And you can select "Sport Mode" on the transmission and dampening control for a high performance rocket that rivals 2+2 sports cars! Luxury features on this "top of the Line Bimmer" are abundant--to include power/heated REAR seats! Only complaint: lots of wind noise with exposed moonroof due to improper windshield fit. About $200+ to fix.

740 Maintenance Blues - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By Highalpine - January 25 - 2:00 amWhat a great car! But how could BMW put such a maintenance monster on the road? Thank goodmness for the warantee! Dont drive this car without one! A $70k vehicle should not experience the kind of parts failures I have experienced. Brake rotor failure, catalytic converter (60K miles), radiater, valve cover seals, transmission seal, etc, etc.

750 il - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By jambroziak - January 23 - 2:00 amBest car on the road. Bought used at 40k. Drove in 1 year 30k miles. No problems. Maintance is expensive: 12 qrts of oil. Tires 800$. Sparkplugs for 12 cylinders, 2 airfilters, etc. If you have a reset key it can be done at home, but needs oil changed according to internal lights every 9-10k. At 100mi/hr rpms are only 2200. Gas milage varies from highway 23-24 mi/ga on good gasoline to 16 in city, and 12 in sports mode. For little extra, much better deal than 740: much more power, torque, all leather and no vinyl, double security glass, lots of extras, and better quality.

740iL, Simply the best 4-door driven - 1998 BMW 7-Series
By JT928S - January 16 - 2:00 amI have owned a 97 for the past 3.5yrs. And it has been the absolute best driving, handling and performing, not to exclude safest car Ive ever owned. My 2nd car is a 85 928S owned since nearly new. So if you want near true 2- door sports car performance and handling without the cops pulling you over too often the 740iL is it. My car has been driven nearly 50K miles since I bought it and only the typical services had to be performed and it still runs like new. Those are the facts. Only thing better 750iL...maybe my next car.
