2021 BMW X7 xDrive40i - REVIEW AND DRIVE - The Mack Daddy BMW

[@chrisginoc]

Just purchased this bad boy. 2022 X7 x40i M Sport. Unbelievable ride and comfort. Bluetooth phonecalls are so quiet. Amazing suv.

[@703Speed]

Congratulations! It is definitely a badass vehicle that both looks and rides fantastic. Thank you for watching!

[@chrisginoc]

@@703Speed Thank you for making your video. Your video definitely helped me make the final decision before our purchase.

[@703Speed]

@@chrisginoc awesome! I’m glad the video helped you!

[@plutonium9]

How's it holding up? I understand that in 2018 BMW started to really focus on reliability and hope that's the case.

[@chrisginoc]

@@plutonium9 We barely have 21k miles on it and it's been a dream. Best suv we have ever owned. The key with reliability is keeping up with maintenance and oil changes often. Knocking on wood for the next 21k miles. My only complaint was the stupid run flat tires they come with stock. They get to sh*t after 12 months. I replaced them with non run flats and it's so much better now.

[@arehmancuw]

Purchased this same x7 m sport in white today ! Loving it

[@georgenjeru1303]

Really loved this review! xDrive40i is quite the machine 🤌

[@carlataylor5573]

Definitely love the sporty look. When it comes to the grill, I wish they would keep it in the front of the car and not take it up to the hood. But not a deal breaker. The interior features, probably the best I’ve seen in an SUV 🙌.

[@703Speed]

Agreed

[@rickyblue9940]

I own a x7, the 3rd row is comfortable for adults just like you are in the second row, just adjust the second row seat forward.

[@703Speed]

Yeah I could totally see that. I was actually surprised as to how comfortable BMW made the third row. A lot of manufactures overlook the third row for some reason

[@joesinkovits6591]

Yes, you have to get the 22” wheels- if you love having your tires blown by our crappy pothole-riddled American roads, at least in Illinois. I know- I had them on my beautiful 7 series and blew three tires in a year. Unfortunately, I traded that beautiful car in for a new Range Rover Autobiography which was the biggest piece of garbage since the Licks-ass LS I was dumb enough to buy. I had the piece of shit Rover for only three months and it went in for service 5 times. I finally ate crow and crawled back to my BMW dealer who put me into an awesome X7 M50i in Carbon Black with 21” wheels, albeit I took a blood bath on the trade (Land Rovers hemorrhage value like you wouldn’t believe.) But I don’t care-this car is AWESOME! Not one problem in over a year, and I love driving it. And the sky lounge panoramic roof is gorgeous at night. Gonna get another X7 in a year or two!

[@703Speed]

I have to say I do love Range Rovers, but only the sport. However I don't think I would keep one past 50k miles, which is sad to say in 2021. I have yet to drive an M50i, but would definitely love to given the opportunity. The 40i was definitely quick enough for the average person, but I love my V8's and max engine specs on pretty much everything.. boat, car, etc... I'm glad you are enjoying your X7! It's a sweet and comfortable ride!

[@WaywardAnalysis]

Getting the 22" ( or any larger tires) is one of the worst purchase anyone can ever make- they are useless off road or wet conditions, provides harsh rides, prone to blow out at 3X the rate, cost more...I guess for race-track NASCAR wannabees they look nicer....but this is a SUV . Does one want to get a SUV that looks nicer to race-track ...loud noise exhaust seeking "enthusiasts"...or a SUV for more comfortable ride, better handling under off-road and wet conditions and lower cost to mantain and much better for one's back. After all, we drive in highways, not race track....

[@cizzlen07]

Bro I love your review style

[@703Speed]

Appreciate it bro

[@mrphantastic_]

Dope review. Test drove one the other day and I’m sold. Now deciding between carbon black or mineral white with captains seat for 2nd row or not. I have a soon to be 10 and 7 year olds. Tough choices.

[@703Speed]

Yeah man, congrats! And thank u! I liked the black, however black is kind of a pain to keep clean. If I were u, I’d go with the mineral white (nice pearl white) and get black 22” wheels. That would look killer. Now when it comes to captains chairs or no, how often will you be hauling bigger things? With the captains chairs down, there is a decent amount less storage area than that of the non captains chairs second row. However, I would expect the captains chairs to be more comfortable on long road trips. If I was your kids I would want the captains chairs, but that’s me. Lol

[@antongee666]

Don't take capitan if you have kids . The space is very small btw them

[@lasertools1]

You could have much better 0-60. Transmission not in sport, no launch control or even any brake boosting. Was there sport plus available? good video other wise.

[@703Speed]

Yes I think it could’ve been a better 0-60 too. I didn’t launch bc it is not my car tho lol. I believe sport plus was available. And thank you!

[@Leishasenter]

I just ordered one of these with a few more upgrades. I am beyond excited!!! Good review

[@703Speed]

Thank you! Congratulations! I’m sure you’ll love it! Did you get the m40 or m50?

[@Leishasenter]

@@703Speed 40 I’m such a girl lmao I made sure everything else is pretty 😂

[@Atook774]

@@703Speed A M40 doesn’t exist.

[@703Speed]

Wrong. It does. If you own one, you know it does, as it states on the spec sheet..

[@703Speed]

That’s awesome! Congratulations! I’m sure it’ll be beautiful!

[@Aikynbreusov]

Any changes between 2019 and 2021????

[@ahmedbouafia1650]

Amazing thank you so much 🇩🇪🇩🇿

[@Big-Cjl-Chris]

I’m a BMW fan just awaiting my X5 PHEV I do like RR too but the reliability of RR worries me to much to buy one.

[@703Speed]

I’m both a RR and BMW fan. For me it’d be a tough choice between the X5M comp and a RR sport SVR. Thank u for watching!

[@jonbarfour8738]

I noticed the seat surfaces for the 40i is different from the 50i. The 50i has the beautiful quilty patterns on all the seats whilst the former appears only to have plain leather surfaces. I also did hear anything on HUD on the 40i

[@703Speed]

50i is a beast. If I was in the market for an X7, definitely try to spring for the M50i. Though, the 40i is actually plenty quick. But the TT V8 on the 50i is what I would want

[@bradleyscarreviews]

Jon, you can get that merino leather on the 40i. Just that this one doesn’t have it. The only thing that 50i has different is the engine. That’s it, and there is HUD display on the 40-

M package is pure cosmetic....blue break is from the DHP

[@703Speed]

What is DHP if I might ask?

[@stevenmatthews792]

Good review thank you

[@TheMystro1971]

Masters of the Universe level vehicle.

[@703Speed]

Agreed

[@bargainhunters4978]

You don't get 22 inch tires with M Package ...you get a black spoke 21 inch. BMW USA becomes more and more stingy by the day...In Europe they get Laser Head lights for the Safety package, here you get some stupid a** s***t

[@703Speed]

The U.S. always gets screwed with European manufacturers. Whether it’s the sequential turn signals, or the stupid bumper things that they put on U.S. spec Bugatti chirons. The 22” are a must - they fill the wheel well much better

[@julianpilinci5509]

I have a 22 X7 40i with both sport and M package and I still have the 21” size wheels.

[@andyroberts3619]

M40i? is that an option?? the M moniker starts @ M50i

[@703Speed]

So it really is an Xdrive 40i but on the msrp sticker it does have it listed as an M40i. So it’s a little confusing

[@muslimalhamdulilah3161]

Nice 0 to 60 👍

[@xinsession24]

What i see in the infotainment there is a DOTA 2 logo there in the apps.. can u play DOTA in the infotainment?

[@703Speed]

I’m not sure to be honest. I would say no

[@muslimalhamdulilah3161]

Please bro x7 m50i next video

[@703Speed]

I’ll try man

[@md8744]

Danm bmw x5 engineers didn't put reclining midd row why! Suv must be reclining though. Danm it is locked on X5.

[@703Speed]

X5 is a great option too! I personally like the look of the X5 better, however I have not driven a new X5. If you don't need the third row, the X5 is the SUV to get

[@MrBarrow100]

Nice video but please cut down on the words “right here”.

[@joburke10]

Range Rover upper additions are much nicer and that includes the m series

[@NanoXG]

As a parent those rear buttons are a no.

[@richardjackson5670]

That looked like 6 seconds.

[@703Speed]

It very well could’ve been. I’m new at adding timers in videos

[@muslimalhamdulilah3161]

Whate maximal real speed ? On dashboards 160 miles but I think it’s real maximal speeds 130-140

[@joem914]

No such thing as a m40i X7….

[@song2ohio886]

you look handsome 🤗

There is no such thing as a M40i. Duh....

Buy one and look at the sticker

@@703Speed lol.. in the video, the truck has been debadged.. poser.. lol

[@703Speed]

Not my car.. lol.. and on the spec sheet is has it as an m40i

[@TheChunification]

@@703Speed give it up.. just spend 16 grand more and get the M50i. Stop posing. If you want. You can buy a M badge off eBay. Those who don't know. Do not care but to those who DO know. Will think your a poser.

[@bradleyscarreviews]

@@703Speed there really isn’t. You can get an m sport package with the 40i engine, or the m50i.

[@joburke10]

No the X7 is not nicer than the Range Rover sport or autobiography edition

[@703Speed]

After, again, driving the RR sport a couple days ago, I agree. Nothing beats the sound of that supercharged V8. And the Autobiography interior is hard to beat
