Used 2015 BMW 7 Series Consumer Reviews
The Executive over the M Sport
Love the looks, feel and responsiveness so far although only 3 weeks into ownership. The Pirelli's are for enhancing the sport driving, not my cup of tea as a mature (> 55) exec. The trade-off of harmonic road contact noise at 0 - 40mph and braking action is not worth it when you prefer Comfort+ over Sport mode. I'll be replacing with Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season for a quieter, softer ride once I run the Pirelli's down. I'll also look to enjoy 35-45K mi over the 10 - 15K for the performance tires. The price was great per Edmunds and TruCar estimates, with both Executive and MSport Packages included. BMW of Lancaster great to work with, no hassle, good advice and services. I will never pay $85K for a new one, but $40K for only 33.8K miles and a beautifully maintained, one-owner executive lease? Absolutely!

7 Series (2012-2015 models) is the way to go!
I wrote this in response to the review that complained of a few issues and heaped praise onto Mercedes. I bought a brand new Mercedes in 2016 and I literally had to bring a brand new car back for service over 25 times in just the first few months. They wouldn't lemon the car so I traded it after 5 months and took the hit on depreciation and got into the 7 series! Night and day folks! 7 series rides better, steering feels great (firmer), and no issues! Do you wanna know why the service center at Mercedes is so posh? It's because you're always there! And they want to give you free ice cream so you'll forget about the piece of crap you bought! I'll never make that mistake again!

Velvet Rocket is turned into a beast!
She is always ready to go! Always look forward to driving this wonderful machine. It makes you look forward to it. The power the power the power did I say the power.... 450 HP twin turbo 4.5 sec to 60MPH! It outruns most sports cars all the while surrounded in luxury. That's all but the very fastest models. Its doubles as a stealth ship sedan most of the time while waiting for its victims then the velvet rocket turns in the BEAST. Makes you never want to get on a plane again as you'd miss the opportunity to fly there and back. Example: Dallas, Tx to Baton Rouge LA 484 miles in 5 hours flat 100MPH average. Several times 137 many times 120-125, 100 seemed slow.! Privilege to own this car. Update, no issues just a solid car. I drove a newer model and don't like it as much? That's never happened before. So it's 5 years old and no reason to get rid of it!

Beats my Lexus hands down!
After driving the Lexus LS cars for 15 years and starting to feel geriatric, this wonderful machine gave me new life! I bought it used with 52K miles and now approaching 80K mile mark with no problems - just oil change and new tires have been only expenses. 400 hp plus superb handling makes even going to the grocery store a thrill. The power and brakes are fantastic and seats quite comfortable. Quiet and refined if you wish, or leave everyone one in the dust with this car. Beautiful lines and prefer 2012 style over newer 7 series models. I finally "get it" about the ultimate driving machine...

Every 6 months
I brought this car a in 2016 and it has been the shop every 6 months for one thing or another. Now the latest is that every time it rains the car won't start, you have to wait until it dries out and then it will start, I took it to the dealership and was told they couldn't find anything wrong yet it keeps doing it. Based on my experience I won't recommend this car.
