One of my favorite carsSource: Edmunds
...I have the Sport edition 740iL. The car is phenomenal. |

First Car, Great CarSource: Cars.com...She then gave the car to my brother who drove it for about 2 years before my mom got a new car. Her old car went to my brother and the Blue 1991 Volvo 740 Wagon went to me my junior year of high school. 60,000 miles, 3 sets of hubcaps, and a college degree later, ole blue is still kickin'. Sure I get made fun of, But hey, I get decent mileage, I can pack just about anything into it and it has a sweet hand crank sunroof! Plus the only major repairs have been replacing the fuel pump and getting a new radiator. I'll probably be selling my in the near future as I need a small truck to assist in... |

Interior Design Needs Major ImprovementSource: Edmunds...It is fast, comfortable, sleek and a pleasure to drive. However, the interior design has been a huge disappointment. The little space that was already in the earlier 7's is gone. The only item you can place at the dash now is a pen let alone the only place my phone can sit is the cup holder. For a business man, this inconvenience makes day-to-day travel to meetings a hassle. So much to the effect where I have even considered that when my lease ends switching to another make who has planned the interior with more practicality... |

Driving MachineSource: Edmunds...I have over 120000 miles on this car and will have it til I die. No major problems. Fuel economy lacks, but other than that this car is built to last... |

Neglected as can be but was a great carSource: Edmunds
...This was my fourth Volvo an my first outside the 200 series, I bought it for only 900 and very neglected so I expected a lot of issues, especially at 364,000 miles. |

Best Car I've OwnedSource: Cars.com
..."I purchased this car used in 2004 and have driven it for the last 5 years. |

200K and still goingSource: Edmunds
...I just hit 200k a few days ago! The leather seats had a few stitches come loose, had a few plastic moldings crack in the interior but other than normal wear and tear, the car is outstanding. |

2009 7-series impressionSource: Edmunds...The current car is masculine and sleek, on the outside and quite comfortable in the inside. I like the heads up display and the lane change indicator. The car is powerful and responsive in the BMW tradition. I noticed that the dash was covered with a light color leather and it reflected onto the windshield. This is dangerous. I also noticed a wind noise at the driver's window. This is something my current 750iL does not have. I was not impressed with a $1000 guzzler tax and a drop in gas mileage. This was poor planning... |

Simply AmazingSource: Edmunds
...This is the first BMW I've ever bought. Before I had all Japanese sports cars that were very nice. |

Second 750iL proves same as first oneSource: Edmunds...My 1st, a '99 bought @ 51Kmi & totaled @ 105Kmi, not a horrible crash by any stretch, major damage under the car was the problem. Current vehicle bought @ 41Kmi now @ 53Kmi. Nothing but batteries so far but the oil service light just came on so I am prepared for at least a grand for the soon to be scheduled service by BMW (Break My Wallet). Will probably do the plugs (12). If you can't afford a few grand/yr. in service, this is not the car for you. Sway links & thrust rod bushings will be covered. Extended warranty for 48Kmi/48 mos. cost $4,100 & if you own these cars, you had best get a top... |

Why should I also consider these?
The BMW 7-Series has long duked it out with the Mercedes S-Class for Germany's top honors.
The current S-Class is less visually appealing than this new Bimmer, though the S-Class does come in AMG-gone-wild editions.
The Audi A8 is an aluminum-framed car with more conservative looks but a surprisingly nimble feel; it's offered in short- and long-wheelbase versions, as are the Jaguar XJ and Lexus LS.
The Lexus LS 460 also gets a long-wheelbase hybrid companion, the LS 600h.
