I was in the market for a sedan. The BMW i7 is a total length of 212 inches which is a little too long for me since my garage isn’t that deep, so I went with a 2012 Honda Civic instead

[@jcartledge303]

I was also considering the i7, along with the new Ghost. The eventual choice was of course a 2003 Sebring

[@antipodeanwizard1632]

As the owner of a loaded 5 series bought new and kept in pristine condition with low mileage, I’d ask you to imagine it after 3 years not 10. While I know some will say, people with the money to buy the i7 don’t worry about it falling apart in short order, I do wonder why those same people will, say, screw employees, tradespeople, lawyers, etc to save a buck or 1 million but happily fork out a king’s ransom for a car that breaks 5 minutes after they drive it off the lot.

Looked pretty OK. Easy to use touch and still decent resolution. Any time BMW choose simplicity in design they should be credited. It's not like them any more.

[@Cloxxki]

It was never OK to have pocket phones that can do more than a 6-figure car. About time car makers stepped it up. And before anyone mentions Tesla, they are LAME in terms of tech use in their cars, so much left on the table there. For instance with the main screen interface. Music players in the 80s had optional skins. Tesla didn't chance in 10 years, often takes steps back.

I was curious to watch this having just purchased an I4. Little thing likes the extra sensors, heated back seats, extra entertainment in the back, more phone pairing seems like it would be nice. But I'm fine with my I4 EDrive 40. I have to say the new I series from what I am reading and experiencing knocked it out out of the park. The hidden thing I either glossed over or did not catch was the range is higher than I was expecting. I do mostly city only driving and find myself only charging my car at home every once a week or so. That is a pleasant surprise. And that is me using comfort mode and heating the cabin and everything. The algorithms BMW uses are more for you driving since deliver, or last charge, or a trip. So it's smart enough to tailor it to show you what you will get with a full charge based on your habits over all. Seems like electric is the future and BMW's new I series are doing great.

A great review as always! I am truly glad that the era of those ludicrously small rear windows may be ending, at last! No more marketing induced claustrophobia so that you keep finding yourself renewing a car annually to get rid of that nauseating feeling… I’m a happy owner of a so called “boxy” 96 Volvo 850 T5, still running daily and wouldn’t change to that jellybean S class which became so frustratingly common in the last decades.

If you'd enable the uneven road app while driving anywhere in Brazil, it would end up mapping the entire land transportation network 🤣🤣🤣 but seriously though, no matter what great suspension a car can have, you NEVER stop shaking and being jolted about while driving in Brazil. It's amazing. Uneven asphalt is the rule, you are surprised when any paved surface is actually smooth!

This new 7 series was actually codeveloped with Rolls Royce. I learned that when I took my mom to a bmw dealer to get the new x4 m40i and the sales guy was talking to me about the 7 series. Also if I’m not mistaken that upper light is crystal from what I saw on short about it.

[@kylek762]

100% should have been a 10 in features. Doug says he reserves a 10 for new groundbreaking tech and I think this car absolutely has that. The unique doors, the screens on the rear doors for controls, a 31 inch rear screen, and the interior security camera just to name a few. No one else is doing it like this.

Amazing video

[@LordFirestaff]

I bought the gas model (760i) about a month ago and I just love it! At first, I wasn't sure about the grill, but it's grown on me. I got the crystal headlamps as well and if you're going to buy one of these, it's a must have (they're so pretty). The exterior is really nice but what sets this car apart is the interior. My previous car was a 2017 750i and this is just light years beyond that. I loved my 750i when I bought it, but BMW has really stepped up their game. I went to the dealership anticipating on purchasing the Mercedes S class, but once I compared both, there was no way I wasn't going to buy the BMW. It's just a beautiful car. The TV in the back is my only real criticism. It's very nice for the passengers in the back but I don't like how it blocks the rear-view mirror. I tend to use that a lot more than my side mirrors and when the TV is down, you can't see anything out of the back. I would like in a software update for the rear camera to enable when the TV is down so the driver can easily see out of the back while driving. One other thing is the vent system. I personally like the air blowing cold right at me during the summer but without the full vents, you really don't get that anymore. It still cools the car, but I really like feeling the air on my face and you don't get that sensation with this design. Still, I give it a solid 9.5/10. Best car I've ever owned!

[@Pranking]

Completely agree, the crystal headlights are a must have! I work at a BMW dealership, I have a remedy for you that might help. Down on the center console there’s a little “P” button with a camera on it as well, press that while driving & it’ll enable the rear-parking camera even if you’re driving forwards. Now you’ll be able to see out of the back with the TV down.

[@Dan_Yerlll]

How are you so Ruch

[@LordFirestaff]

@@PrankingThat I didn't know. I'll have to try that next time. Still, they should make it automatically enable when the TV is down, but this is good to know. Thanks

I’m not a screen hater. With all the new features, you need a multipurpose screen to fit all the options. But climate control, seat adjustment and basic stereo controls should absolutely remain as physical buttons and knobs. I don’t want to have to scroll through 5 menus to turn down the volume because my Pandora went from Smoke On The Water to I Cum Blood.
