BMW 740i Review: A Luxury Sedan For Under $50,000!!

The 2016-2019 BMW 7 Series is an excellent LUXURY sedan for a young mogul, a CEO perhaps. In this video I break down why it's such a good value proposition when used, and why some may actually prefer the 'pre-LCI' looks. Probably one of the best options if you're looking to spend around $50k for a lightly used luxury sedan... a LAND YACHT!

Just bought a 740 i with 40,000 miles on the clock for 34,000. No M Sport (just don`t see the value) but with the exec package. I do a lot of miles and this is the most relaxing car I ever had. You just don`t care what happens around you. Great choice for somebody who`s looking for a comfy daily cruiser. Driven by an older guy and not a scratch on it. And I get about 26 mpg.

[@carycoller3140]

I'm picking mine up this Friday. 2016 740i, 79,000 miles for $25,300.

[@chillbro8811]

B58 engine?

[@carycoller3140]

@Chill Bro I'm not skilled at those designation numbers. It's a 3 liter incline 6 cylinder.

@carycoller3140 how’d it hold up at the mileage it was at? im in the market for either that or a 5 series 540i

[@channell11]

These depreciate like a rock going of a cliff with a rocket attached. It's a great value for half off after two years.

[@Reoniz]

That’s exactly right!!!

[@peterwood2633]

[@shalisaheard9687]

I love it, I own the 2018 BMW 740i with the rear shades, heads up display and ambient air freshener feature... You forgot to show the gesture features they are really cool!!😎😎😎

[@Reoniz]

Haha the gestures are a treat... I don't think this particular one had that option, but all the newer 7's should! :)

[@terrancepinkney777]

Very well done my man! I'm in the market for a new car and this one is on the list. As an older guy I'm in it for the luxury cruising aspect and if need to get a little sporty on the road as well. Thanks for the work on the video.

[@bmwfitness28]

It's massive and that's why I purchased one cause I like that it was big. Plus it's a 2018 for $33000 that was a great deal. Sat at a Lexus dealership for 3 months.

[@Reoniz]

Hahah yes it is. And you got an absolute steal... feel bad for whoever lost 70% on that in a few years 🤦🏻‍♂️

Another great video man.....and YES this 740i especially with xdrive is sooo soooo good. Thanx to the b58 engine. Think about it you get basically the 750i space and luxury WITH the awesome and tunable b58. Now help me with this.....the 2016 740i IS the first year of the b58? You can tune it with bm3 or any other tuning so it can keep up with 750i. I admit if ever sell my 340i I will get this one I think. And then just do a simple stage 1.

[@Reoniz]

Thank you! Yes I believe 16' would be the first year of B58 for the 740i... and I agree, this with a tune is plenty fast for a luxo-barge 😅😅

[@Xanadu98]

I have a 17’ 740i stock b58 how can I do stage 1 tune?

[@shawna7813]

Yeah, a 1300 dollar tune gets you within 20-25 horsepower of the 750i...

[@Listman11]

My experience with the 750s have been reliability issues. The 4.4L had a $100 valve that cost over $1000 because they had to almost remove the engine. The 3L is supposed to be more reliable.

[@Reoniz]

The 3.0L's both N55 and B58 are certainly a bit more reliable!

[@turnne]

@David Oh I think they solved that problem in the 2014 and later V8's

[@Listman11]

@@turnne I have a friend who works on German cars and he said Mercedes is more reliable than BMW and both are better than Audi.

[@scottjohnson8316]

@David Oh..... You better believe the 3.0 is wayyyy more reliable than the V8.

[@nycupperes]

I prefer the old style prior to 2020. The new giant BMW angled grills are horrible. They are going in the direction of Lexus and Toyotas which are fugly. The new Mercedes are doing the same with the long thing lights, which is a step down. The heads up display is awesome in this car, not sure if it’s still an option.

[@Reoniz]

I believe it still is an option and I totally see where you're coming from... I actually prefer the facelifted (LCI) 7 series to this pre-LCI model... but it's one of very few newer BMW designs that I still thoroughly enjoy :/

[@thewedge8823]

Sick review, I can't decide between the 2019 740i and the 2020 740i... the 2020 is about $7-$10k more, but it has the more aggressive facelift... just trying to decide if I should wait til 2023 for the price to drop, or just get the 2019 right now (which I can afford easily) ... thoughts?

[@Reoniz]

The facelift sure looks sweet (I've reviewed both) but that's quite a bit of dough for mostly an aesthetic difference... I'd probably wait and see if possible!

[@shawna7813]

The facelift is hideous, imo. Save money and go with the more attractive pre-facelift model. Those new oversized grills are a deal breaker for me...

[@channel-jy8cx]

I'm on the same boat g shit it's the 19 or wait till price drop but I think we should wait but how long

[@channel-jy8cx]

When would the price go down?

[@absolutium]

Facelifted one looks terrible I literally saw in 2022 a group of young ladies laugh at one while leaving a restaurant.. the driver was not happy.

Why people are scared of buying used bmw even if they are less than 100k in km?

That's a good point, I'd even go as far as to say most current gen BMW's shouldn't have any serious issues thru 100k MILES!

[@pbemusicgroup]

What up Rio. I'm in the market for a 2017 740i. Can you tell me what major problems if any you've encountered? The one I have my eyes on has 66k miles, No accidents, a clean title, and 3 owners.

I’m debating between this and a 550. Those 550s look pretty big.

Potentially the worst reliability of any luxury vehicle made. Like all BMWs it’s over engineered which leads to significant problems as they age. Even following the maintenance schedule which is an absolute requirement your going to be faced with big bills the longer you own it.

[@Reoniz]

It's a bit of an over-exaggeration to say it's the worst reliability of 'any' luxury vehicle... but sure, it can/will cost you more than an equivalent $50k car-it also gives you much more luxury and refinement than almost any $50k car so it's a trade off for a certain type of buyer I will agree with you in the sense that for me personally, it's not worth it... I also have no desire to drive a land yacht around 😅
