BMW 740i E38 M60 Manual V8 Top Speed on German Autobahn Driving Sound

cozy round on Sunday

[@LuckyS8.]

Finally someone who made a proper video of manual E38. I hope u wiil post more videos like this :)

[@KyleTaylor-sz8cd]

lmao. why? because he speeds it up for you like your playing your games? wow!! grow up kid

[@staceymcdermott4954]

My friend Tupac loved this model

[@zestor2908]

Schönes Fahrzeug und schöne Kameraposition. Endlich mal jemand der es vernünftig aufnimmt!

[@ravisriram6746]

Wonderful to see a video of a manual e38, as most seemed to have automatics. Really nice to see the driver put it it through its paces.

[@RtB68]

That is a seriously weaponised car. Magnificent bare-chested sound.

[@buak809]

there's something magical about the weather, the day and (probably) time setting of this video where you drive on the roads being almost completely alone, such a relaxing thing to experience

[@dvcalc1234]

From California….Germany is the best. Cars, roads, people ,chocolate cake. , and even the weather. Thanks for video..brought back pleasant memories …

[@semajharmon5777]

This is beautiful. I whip my 03 325i on 95 all the time but hittin the autobahn in Germany in a v8 bmw. Gotta love it.

[@RoberinoEldorado]

This is one of the best car videos I have ever had the pleasure to come across!

i like how this german v8 rumble got that European touch to it.

[@tempestsquall5882]

Bro the acceleration out of ur driveway was insane.

[@stuartrose9456]

Got to love the 95 bmw 740 . Double row timing chains and cog gear on chains . Doesn't suffer timing chain guides failure also runs the v12 auto tranny to . Only negative is no vanes not as much torque as the later m62

[@bluerineimb1148]

[@Dallas-GTR-86]

These cars are becoming classic cars now here in uk and car prices are sky rocketed 🚀 Beautiful video bro it’s music to my ears

[@andersnielsen6044]

Here all the bad ones are scrapped or exported to Russia, Eastern Europe or Africa.. The few good ones are in collectors garages.. They are almost impossible to find. There is not 3 cars for sale on a hole year of the E38.

[@gbpegasus46]

To keep an E38 in good condition is very very expensive. Cars are at least 22 years old. Lots of worn out and degeneration of suspensionparts. Lots of electronic issues ass well. I owned a 750iA for 10 years from new but it was a money pit.

[@GabeShootman]

@@andersnielsen6044 I own and daily drive my e38 here in the states. To say it is a money pit is an understatement. Mine is a 1997 with the m62TU. They still require new timing chains every 100k miles. water pumps and radiators every 60k miles. the engine block itself has never had any issues, but it requires new oil gaskets once every year or two. fuel pump goes out like clockwork every 40k miles. Because of its age, it takes near constant upkeep of the interior and exterior trim pieces. 3 of 4 exterior door handles have fallen off and needed replacement, all due to a tiny clip that secures it to the door. However I must say, it has 275,000 miles on its original transmission. Although the worst part is, due to the cars weight, it requires a suspension refresh almost annually. I replace the control arms every other year, which is normal according to the e38's maintenance book. During the last 6 months of this period, the car always develops the "55 mph shimmy" or harsh vibration at freeway speeds. Since its an old car, its inexpensive to insure. But I still end up spending $2,000-$4,000 a year on upkeep. Its also terrible on gas, average 16 mpg. Sometimes its worth it, sometimes not so much. I often contemplate getting a newer car, but i only consider this when i'm not driving it. When Im on the road, I never think about replacing it.

[@berttroubleyn3475]

I learnt how to drive in a manual E38, but with a modest 2.8 inline six. Great fun, though, and plenty powerful for a young lad with more testosteron than self-preservation instinct ;)

[@KyleTaylor-sz8cd]

its cool how you are good with computers and speeding shit up. no one else sees. bravo slick.

[@gregorypollock9299]

So near end of video 260 KPH or about 160 MPH. 750iL w/ 5HP30 should also be able to sustain 160 MPH with its automatic transmission.

[@llll3452]

In my opinion the best looking 7series body style. What is that Speed with the needle buried? Looks close to 160mph?

His consumption is shown in the red center display

[@cincoblankko]

The needle that measures consumption is maxed out at 30 L per 100km on full throttle, could be a bit more in reality :))

[@Dexoz607]

Yo alan how rare is This era of 7 series manual transmission is it? Cuz i never saw it in irl

[@TheAlanFish]

@@Dexoz607 I would imagine they were somewhat rare. I don’t think they offered a manual in the US as a regular option for example, but it might have been possible to order one as an “individual” car, so there could be a few floating around. In Europe it was probably more common as they like manual transmissions better over here.

[@paperandmedals8316]

I don’t mind my E38 being an automatic. I do wish my E39 5spd had that one extra gear that the 2.8 begs for at 80mph and 3k rpm.

That is why you do not buy an e39 with manual.. Too noisy.

Amazing video, I just wished it was not sped up as much. Is that a 6 speed manual? and from which car is it? is that stock?

[@Capt_n]

It's a M60 engine so obviously pre-facelift, which means the manual transmission is stock. Only with the introduction of the facelift you couldn't order anything else than automatic transmissions for the V8/V12 engines.

@@paperandmedals8316 Sweetheart.. I am a former Chief engineer at BMW M GmbH in München and before that I was a professional rally driver so I might not "hate" noisy and sporty cars.. But a luxury sedan like the e38 should NOT be used as a rally car. For your notice I do run a car trading company within I do trade +2000 cars every single year. I can assure you that I can afford the cars that I want to. ;)
