disappointed BMW owner
I have been driving Lexus 470 & 570 for the last 20 years. since Lexus waits so long to bring out a new model, I looked at Mercedes and BMW. Decided on BMW X7 50i, V8. Am putting the vehicle in the shop for electrical problems for rhe second time. 3600 miles and six months old. My last LX570 was never in the shop in 4 years except for maintenance and brake service.

BMW X7 Best Vehicle I've ever had!
This SUV looks great has tremendous room inside the vehicle and drives great with very good gas mileage. The X7 looks so good in black with the big grill and huge 21 inch tires and mags. The SUV drives great with the standard 6 cylinder 4.0 engine. Very fast and 19 + miles to the gallon average highway and city. The extra leather seating is luxuris and feels great and after 2 years has held up well. The X7 looks great and drives even better it may be the smoothest ride I've ever had. The concerns or dislikes are no 3rd seat row ducks, crazy but unless you buy the 5th zone air they don't provide ducks for those rear passengers very bad miss. The paint job looks good but really needs upgrading on the base vehicle too many dings from stones on the road which I have no control over. An option for a better paint job would make sense but for $77,000 a great job on a BMW should be expected. I wish I new about the ducts I would have bought the 5th zone for $800. Overall the X7 is a great SUV and really is fast and has great room in the back even when the 3rd row is up and you have a 7 passenger or maybe a 6. The driver assistance professional is well worth the $1700 price and there too many nice options to mention and customize the X7. Great SUV I highly recommend it.

Run flats blow
If you get a flat tire the only option is to have the car towed to a dealership to have the tire changed. It can not be changed on the side of the road. You have to hope the dealership closest to you has the tire in stock. If not you have to wait 4 days like I did to have your tire changed.

Possessed Rear Seats
The back seats tried to close on my infant twins TWICE, and I had to forcefully stop the seat from closing. I tried pressing the button to make it stop closing, but it resisted. So I used all of my energy to stop the seat, which had a car seat attached to it with a baby inside, from continuing to close. This alone makes me wish we never got this car. It is brand new with no miles, I've driven it maybe 15 times, and will never drive it again with my children in the car.
