740i xDrive is a great car, transmission very smooth, Engine is power but quite, roomy, great features...and much more. I am in love of my car and have no complaint at all (beside the maintenance cost). It is my 3rd BMW, I have 328i, X5 35i, and now is the G12 740i.

Not the ultimate driving machine

Since 1996 this is my third seven series. This one is a cheap one, corner shortcut features, and I hate to say that I hate it. Let's start with the stupidest item first, that is the trunk key that in all cars, it closes the trunk, in this car it is designed to lock the doors, therefore, useless. The doors of all high end cars open when the driver opens the driver's side door, but in this car you also have to push to unlock button to open the other doors. Seats are cheap and no support. Dash is simple flat like old American cars. Cockpit isn't designed like a BMW signature, and cant's see the small digits of temp, hour, and other information. The radio is the worst I have ever seen. The service says it's because it's a satellite radio and it sucks in all seven series. Don't know if that is true, or they just don't want to do anything about it. The performance isn't like prior models, and the body looks like a whale simple and a long box. I was debating between this and a Maserati , and chose this because of promotional monthly lease and included service. You get what you pay for!

New 2016 BMW 740i

Had it for little more than 2 weeks so far and I love it. Previously had 5 series and for sure this one has more power with high level of comfort. The car is priced well with some discount offered by dealer. However, there are some options priced high and if you are using it, it does not matter but since I am not using those options such as lane keeper and lane change warning, I do not think this is worth of having. Best choice might be to go with basic since even basic model comes with a plenty options with high technologies.
