This is an amazing car. Considered the Lexus and Infiniti top models, but they did not stack up against the 750. Stereo is phenomenal; drive and comfort - WOW!! IDrive is completely intuitive, controls are easy, and interior finish is immaculate. The best I have ever driven!
I love the BMW 750Li

Easy to drive but a little large at times for driveway maneuvers.The seats and interior are very comfortable.The seat massage is something I thought was over the top but on a long drive it is pretty nice. The car puts a smile on your face by just driving it. Expert engineering has made this car unreal. If you step on the gas it goes like a scalded dog. The tectronic shifter makes for some fun times once you get used to it. It made a trip on the Blue-ridge parkway a true pleasure. If I had t to do over I would have bought this car years ago.Of course I work for an oil company so I will suffer the gas pump experiences!
Exceptional Car

I bought my car over the weekend and drove two hundred miles from the dealership to my home. Ride quality, technology, build quality and all the features are mind blowing. I have looked at Benz S550 and Lexus LS460 before pulling the trigger on 750LI. In my opinion this car is the best in this class as far as options, interior look, feel, drive and build quality is concerned. I don't know what is the fuss about IDrive? I was able to figure out everything about the IDrive in my two hour drive. It's very good system if you are ready to embrace the latest and greatest in technology 750LI has to offer. IF you are in the market for luxury car in this class then look no more.
Disappointed

I have had numerous BMW products which I have enjoyed. However, I have never had one that would not accept gasoline in the tank or where the mileage range reads different each time after fueling and gas gage reads something different every 10 to 20 miles. I have no idea most of the time if I have gas or not. I have driven every loner I think BMW has to offer for weeks at a time. My car is in repair so much BMW doesn't call me for a service review. In addition, my cruise is set at 70MPH and my computer reads avg speed is 85 MPH???? So much for my purchase of the "luxury" car when I am driving a loner most of the time.
Buyers beware

I would suggest you take your car to a mechanic and have them pay close attention to any leaks they see in your car. I purchased my car in 2017 and fortunately I purchased a warranty through Ally auto. I drove the car from VT to Virginia Beach and when I got it home I noticed something burning and it smelled like oil. I called my local BMW dealer and set up to get it checked out and sure as the sky is blue I had several leaks that needed to be fixed and for sake of detail it took $3500.00 to fix. Less than 10 months later another oil leak coming from a similar location. I set up the appointment with the same dealership and that was an additional $4500 plus my side mirror(s) motor to wind them back in place after opening would not open. Long story short $800 a piece to replace the mirror motor so another $1,600 to fix. Total repair was a little over $6100. I almost fell to my knees! The best part of this story was that I purchased that warranty and all repairs were covered 100%, well I did have to pay for the second repair $200 deductible. That warranty was the best investment I could have purchased because those charges were almost 1/2 of what I paid for the car. My concern with this car was it only had 59,940 miles and a 2008. It blew my mind to have repairs costing this much for a car that is built to last.
