  Boss Car - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By BMWMan - August 6 - 12:00 pm

  If you dont own one get one. The 2002 745Li is the best BMW that BMW has built. Technology is great but get the computer reprogrammed while still under warranty. This car is better built than the new ones. It turns heads like you would not believe and is one cool machine to drive.

  2002 BMW 745i - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By AMAZING - November 21 - 12:35 am

  The most amazing car I have ever owned. Ive done Lexus for years and Ive owned two mercedes S-Classes but nothing is like my 745. It is fun to drive and I love the technology. Ill admit I was nervous when I purchased my used 7 series, but its been months and I have yet to encounter a single problem with this iDrive business, I love the iDrive. Ive never gotten so many turning heads in the lexus or benz either, like my 7!

  More Bang for the Buck - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By Clyde - May 18 - 2:09 pm

  I have had my 2002 745i for a year and and half and I must say I enjoy it more and more each day. Handling is precise, ride is firm but smooth, looks - it still turns heads! The iDrive is fun once you get used to it - it can be a showpiece for passengers not used to computer oriented commands. No mechanical issues, full warranty until late 08 - I couldnt ask for more!!!

  Great Car - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By Tom M - March 10 - 1:48 am

  I expected to be driving a 2001 S600 or maybe a Lexus two months ago. But after test drives I found nothing comes close to the 745Li in comfort (luxury seat pkg w/ massage), and sheer pleasure to drive. The car does everything I ask of it. The iDrive is not as intuitive as it could be but there is often more than one way to do something eg change radio stations/CD to radio by voice, a/c by dash buttons, etc. Once I got a couple of free hours to read the manual w/o the usual kid and other distractions it was fairly easy. The 6yr/100k mile warranty was appealing as well. I do wonder why BMW discontinued the infinitely variable intake manifold in the 2006 745s.

  Land Yacht - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By rpb750 - February 27 - 2:34 pm

  I was amazed on the power and smooth acceleration of this car. It has much more power than any lexus I have ever driven. The interior is very roomy and comfortable. I would not buy any other luxury car. The speed of this car is shocking...

  VEHICLE FOR THE ELITE - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By clyde - October 16 - 6:43 pm

  Ive had the vehicle for over two weeks, and its been a joy to drive. The power is scary at times - technology is like nothing youve ever seen! Exchanged the 19 inch alloys for chrome and it sets it off!! Comfortable ride, although the Pirellis do not ride as comfortable as Michelins. Totally satisfied so far.

  "the ultimate driving machine - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By drjbmw - January 11 - 2:05 pm

  An old timer with BMWs, I have owned 7 series since 88. I love the car and enjoy driving it. I have taken different 7s on interstate trips and have enjoyed the "Ultimate driving machine". BMW is ahead of the time and has always had some "technical issues" with their "1st year" model on 7 series due to complex electrical systems and components of the vehicle. The dealerships are very aware of the adjustments and have always tried to repair the defect. Part of owning a toy like this is to understand it would need maintenance and some TLC.

  The - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By netwalker4 - April 23 - 2:00 am

  After reading all of the material I could get my hands on I bought what I thought was the ultimate car. After owning the car I realized I had made the right choice. This car is all that is was designed to be. It was not designed to have the new I-Drive over shadow its performance stats in the major car magazines as the only lows they could find.

  BMW 745 Ownder Speaks Out - 2002 BMW 7-Series
  By carcollection - April 4 - 3:00 am

  This car outdoes my 2 old 750s in pract. every way, thank goodness to BMW for keeping the big, muscular look with the new 7 as opposed to Mercedes narrowing the new S so that it looks cheap with the standard 16 & 17 wheels and still does front & rear even with the sport pack. thats why i no longer own any 600s. ill admit the trunk did take a little getting used to though.
