How does the largest BMW feel with a 523bhp V8 under the bonnet? I struggle to understand the BMW X7 M50i, thankfully my good buddy Jon and his 7 year old Dylan shed some light!
Please stay safe everyone!
Thanks for watching as always, see you at at the next video!

When I sat in one I was amazed by the room in the 3d row. I'm 6'2 and I fit perfectly fine in there. Edit: congrats on 100k subs!

[@ZSJamie]

Crazy to think this is quicker than my E92 M3 😂 Keep up the good videos Joe! Just been binge watching your petrolhead tour series the last few days, definitely want to get involved,

[@PixelVogue]

This is the only "big" grill version that looks half decent!

[@sullivant96]

100k well done bud been watching you for 4 years thoroughly deserved

[@iantaf5559]

Congrats on the 100K, Joe. Well deserved!!👍🏼

[@aneebaba06]

Hey good to meet and hear from little Dylan! Handsome lil guy! - badass SUV of course. Family friend just bought an X7..though I think the 40i. Congrats on 100K! It's our pleasure to follow and watch!

[@hecker5364]

I love your thorough reviews! Thanks! I feel like I already drove the car and I know how it feels! You are a good person!

[@OnlineHousehusband]

Congrats on 100k Joe....I've been watching you since 1k subs in your early days. Still awesome content...very well deserved. 👍🍻

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thanks Paul, you have literally been around and a supporter since day one, can't thank you enough bro 🙏 Hope you and the family are well!

[@darrenrayner583]

100k... epic! Dylan, what a lovely confident young man...mini JA tester in training.

[@phillipchandler8862]

Congrats on 100k subs Joe. Well deserved. X7 expensive up market mini bus. Depreciation monster too.

[@xIRATUMx]

Buyer: how much is road tax GoV: yes

[@CarsofGlasgow]

@@kamalAli0203 not that bad tbh! A used LR discovery or lexus rx350 is £555

[@G82_M]

And if you can afford this car you care not for road tax.

[@EdwardV20]

475 is a normal annual road tax for a sporty petrol in Belgium. If you want this here, you'll have to empty your pockets and then some. it's about 6000 euro annual tax as a wild guess. An Aventador is just stupid money, you could buy a nice hatch for what you would pay!

[@EdwardTheAussie]

This has over 50k in tax on it when you buy this new in Australia

[@ciaranc7460]

Road tax for this is 2300 in Ireland and we also pay VRT tax so we pay an extra 20 or 25% more on car prices . We are being robbed here.

[@marvusparvus]

BIG Cheers on making 100K !!! thank you for sharing.

[@mickfletcher1289]

[@musawenkosindhlovu9980]

Congratulations on 100k subs and great work on the content.🍻

[@mickfletcher1289]

Great video Joe. Great insight into 7 seaters and that boot space issue. Split seats and roof box always an option.

[@madtrainman1]

Brilliant video as always Joe. Keep up the great work and congratulations on 100k subs :)

[@rich.52]

[@alfiel11111]

Congratulations on 100K

[@supremeetnel7707]

I see tons of X7s in New York. I’ve seen maybe 3 GLS. It’s crazy I forgot the GLS existed. I guess people dont like the rounded shape of the new GLS

[@matthewgrayson8]

I also think the X7 is a bit more luxurious and has some amazing features

[@ClaireYunFarronXIII]

For me it is the opposite. I see many GLS models. Never seen an X7.

[@pmiskovic]

I’m with you, x5’s and x7’s all over nyc

[@supremeetnel7707]

Petar Miskovic yeah the new x5 is everywhere. I love the way it looks. Best looking bmws are the X5 X7 and 8 series

[@CarsofGlasgow]

Yeah when I was in new york in march the X7 was very popular!

[@j.h-sr7em]

0:47 Joe is DWARFING that X7! It looks small next to him. 😂

[@DeltaDubai03]

Congrats on reaching 100k subscribers! Nice angle in this video with the help of a younger subscriber... For once, it was not a dithyrambic review of a BMW, which shows Joe's honesty. But we never doubted it anyway.

[@ilspan]

Great idea to take your friend and his son along. Some real world input ! My wife and I presently drive (Her car), a 750Li. Love the car, but getting in and out is a challenge for me as I have trouble bending enough to get my head in or out. We drove the X7 in M50 trim yesterday and love it. Probably will be her car soon. Thanks for the great video !

[@TeacherToolkitDemo]

Yes Joe 100k! Badboy

[@lilbuddylee131]

Great car and vid.

[@savethecars315]

The most honest car reviewer in the world! Great work Dylan 😜

[@myporscheadventures]

brilliant video with Jon and Dylan mate 👌

[@carllamb6711]

Hi Joe Great video mate love the BMW very nice indeed Also congratulations mate on 100k subscribers mate well deserved

[@AH64APilot]

Great video review! I'm ordering a new-build M50i on Monday, and this video sealed the deal. Although this is the largest BMW in production, it isn't as large as the much more common Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban and Ford Expedition SUVs found here in North America. For me, as a longtime BMW owner (seven 7 series, 2 X5s in 35 years), this is the perfect 'Full Size' SUV. I was ready to pull the trigger on a loaded Tahoe High Country, but when the build crossed the $80k line, I just couldn't see spending that much on a "Chevy Truck". Staying with BMW for the foreseeable future. Thanks for the honest review!

[@ghq8982]

So how do u find ur bmw m 50 i vehicle after one year?

[@AH64APilot]

@@ghq8982 Still in love with this car. I use it regularly to tow my 35' Fountain powerboat, which is about 10,000 lbs. all up weight on the trailer. It exceeds the published towing capacity of 7500 lbs. (plus 12% gradient), but I live in Florida and the terrain is flat. The X7 pulls it up the launch ramp without any effort. Now about 18 months old & 17,000 miles, the only issue I've had was when the motorized lower tailgate actuator failed. It was replaced the next day. Amazingly, the dealer had that part in stock. I had a tire damaged by a screw and looked everywhere to buy a new rear tire, but all sources were backordered. Learned later that BMW NA bought up the entire stock of the 315 series run-flat Continental rear tires. Again, amazingly, the dealer had one in stock and it was $150 cheaper than any retail store. Score! I still haven't tried 'Launch Control'. It isn't well documented in the manual. Might give it a try today! kzbin.info/www/bejne/inrRcmB9ltqdhNE

[@JL-jc9no]

have you been dogging in it before? i hear the back can be good with the seats down

[@AH64APilot]

I traded the X7 on an Alpina B7 last year, but I averaged about 24mpg Highway, 18-20 in city driving.@@rampageashton

[@sunilpanday288]

Phenomenal BMW X7 M50i.The trailer option is available when making use of the 7 seats. Excellent interior and exterior finishes.

[@26NEWERA]

Sounds like the x5 m50i might be the sweet spot then

[@LR95051]

I personally think it’s amazing, sat in one before the lockdown and I was blown away by the interior and stance of the car. I’m literally doing everything i can to buy one hahaha

[@LiveLifeLasting]

German car companies need more guys like you 👍🏻

[@pjmoody]

You won't regret it

[@Levente20]

car looks perfect for what it is

[@racechassis]

Amazing review

[@jerry83ism]

Congrats on the 100k subs, heard about it from Petrol Ped

[@paulstaniford8622]

Congratulations on the 100k. What a milestone to reach. Keep up the good work. How about an M340D Touring review? Head-to-head with Audi S4 Avant ?

[@amacca2085]

Needs a map 😂 Congrats on 100k should be far higher 👍🏼🇬🇧

[@martygreen3145]

This is unreal how fast those BMW X5’s and now the new X7’s are. But this X7 is SICK, looks and UNBELIEVABLE SPEED!! 😳

[@robertstarczewski]

The best X7 review

[@mokhetheangaka2821]

It's one of the Best...

[@iMiik]

what a young stud mate 💨

[@TheJoesmoe1987]

Great video great car

[@azhariqbal6796]

It is absolutely beautiful no words 😶

[@badluckdaniel]

my dream car. thanks for making me drool over it again by watching yet another review buddy

[@malph9216]

100k! Well done mate....thoroughly deserved!

[@t3chn0m0]

Great as usual! 100k Subs, yeah! I came here when you had around 1k...well deserved!

[@m2kev789]

Big Congratulations on 100k subs Joe! Well deserved - keep ‘em coming! 👍😀

[@johnmcc4928]

What a beauty 👌👌

[@ellabbas75]

Dylan is the real star👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@shariqahmed5637]

I am trying to convince my wife to get an X7 to replace her X5; problem is that she likes light colors but I prefer the X7 in a dark shade with the M package. It is a beautiful car.

[@markbrix9385]

I really like the X7 in that spec!

[@jr4ff3]

100k. legend

[@carlgreen2721]

Joe I have always loved your reviews and this one is no different. There is no doubt this is a masssssiiiivvveeeeee car but just wait until you can test the Alpina XB7!!!

[@yanko.s]

Do you plan to review 718 GTS 4.0 ? Congrats on 100k subs.

[@CarsofGlasgow]

wow what a beast of a car!

[@jackpayne6478]

100k congratulations 🎉🎂!

[@veronicianyveronica5290]

Most beautiful SUV ever made !

[@Pheanom316]

Hi Joe, congratulations on 100 thousand subscribers. If I was in the market for a full size v8 SUV, I go the for the X7 over a Range Rover. I cannot image I will ever be in the market for a full size SUV. This grill size in my opinion suits this segment of car.

[@diawasafa1]

Thanks 🙏🏿

[@karlpeart1752]

I'd get the regular version but have captain chairs in back completely agree with you about the boot it's simply not practical enough in 6 seater guise

[@BLahBLahBLahBLah584]

very very nice, The big grills don't look too bad on the X7 either

[@harryarcher5385]

Congrats on 100k joe! Do you think there will be a x7m?

[@timmartin7468]

100K! Well done Joe.

[@MobileMartyn]

Great review. Would you replace your 7 series saloon with this though? I'd be super happy to be picked up in an X7 from the airport or station!

[@akeene30]

Well done on 100k subs! Well deserved. Can’t get my head around the X7, I’ve had a few 7 seaters and reality is most of us only use the 6 & 7 seats occasionally and for short distances..kids parties, events, cinema therefore the rears in the X5, XC90, Q7 et al are good enough. My issues would be that boot and all that leather, the point of these big 4x4’s is their utility, and being able to throw crap in to the tip or pick up a wardrobe etc...

[@TheMystro1971]

Not really. The point is ultimate luxury. No one wants a luxury car anymore. The top tier luxury category is all about big high performance luxury SUV’s. Bentley, RR, Lamborghini, etc.... confirmed high end SUV’s are where it’s at and what the big dogs want to be seen in. A big luxury SUV that does 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds or less shows you can have it all in these big vehicles.

[@markwalker5984]

Thanks for the discount code Joe. Just ordered a race box - wonder if it will be the first in NZ?

[@Ray6256]

That's some vehicle, Joe, it can certainly shift for the size of it, and I know there's not much space in the boot when all 6 seats are being used, but it still looks like a very spacious car, very airy looking to the front from the back and very comfortable, I'm not sure I would choose the ivory colour for the seat inserts though, I think that would get very dirty very quickly if it was in every day use if you know what I mean, it looked quite a wide car as well as you were driving down those country roads and the economy isn't great, but as you said yourself if you can afford a car of that price, then you're obviously not going to be worried about the economy, it looks very luxurious and congratulations on achieving 100,000 subscribers, onwards and upwards as they say

[@shaheenevans]

Grille makes sense on x7 - love the blend of luxury and performance

[@sfst2]

I have a 2021 x7 but unfortunately it’s the 40i but I absolutely love it

[@Nosnx1987]

In this size BMW the large grill make more sense than in 3 and 5 series 🤔

[@CarsofGlasgow]

or the new 4 :O

[@Nosnx1987]

CarsofGlasgow to many series for me, lost orientation 😃

[@publicsectordirect982]

Shut up

[@bobulatorul]

Does the 3rd row have Isofix points? If not how did you attach the booster seat shown? Also does the middle seat in the 2nd row have Isofix?

[@scottiecopasetic8315]

Joe, I think it's meant for family use with the idea of handling all weather & occasionally dirt off road scenarios for camping or picnic time. For the folks who have the funds obviously...

[@matmul4850]

That was great with the little kid 😅👍

[@alkabond]

I hope they do the X7M

[@leftyplayz6908]

I really like the look of the X7, but I have only seen 1 at goodwood FOS and I saw one in Monaco, I wonder what the sales figures are like.

[@manishmotwaniwyadgplzle2379]

Which looks more mafia ... Gloss black finish or Chrome trim on windows...?

[@MBimmer]

Yeah the new 40d hybrid might be the ticket.

[@DW94576]

Why does this sound so much better than that M5!

[@TheMystro1971]

It’s a awesome luxury/muscle vehicle. I would take this over any top tier luxury car. Why get a luxury car when you can have this kind of performance in such a better luxury package with 10x the road presence?? It’s a “masters of the universe” SUV.

[@williamclark2730]

Very good review I believe what everyone is saying, all good stuff, so I won't repeat it. I'm a fan who use to do the same thing, question? How low does it go for loading, for handicap passengers , is the 6gt better or no for handicap use.

[@Sebastian_Daniels]

The X7 is basically an X5 that has been made EVEN BETTER THAN the X5, and it's also a more practical 7 Series with the same luxury, style and quality - my opinion.

[@TheJoeMB]

That spec on that X7 looks very very good. Not beautiful but has presence and it's imposing.

[@31crazyice]

RSQ8 should and is compared to X6MComp. Other than that, great review, cheers. Congrats on the 100k subs

[@kitlai768]

I think this is best 6/7 seat SUV on the mkt, it looks good, it handles v well and yet with all 3 rows of seats up you’re still left with decent cargo space unlike a Disco 5. The front imo looks better than the X5. The rear looks good, you commented on how upright the rear end is but I think it looks right. I personally prefer this to them SUV coupes like say an X6 or a Q8, I think they’re pointless, if you want an SUV to look like a regular hatch so much then it’s probably best to just buy a hatchback. Good video btw 👍
