BMW 7 series 2012

There are a number of things that Germans are well known for. Being very strict on details, being on time, being very serious and making the best luxury cars. With such power houses coming from one country such as Audi and Mercedes Benz the competition is tough and this has a positive for us the customer. They constantly push the each other and the limits giving us the best possible cars. The 7 series is one of the more expensive cars you can buy on a BMW lot with the price tags coming into six figures depending on the engine and specifications you want on your new car. For this blog I decided to pick the middle of the range the 750i x Drive which starts at around $88,000. It has a 4.4 V8 with twin turbo powering the all-wheel drive system instead of the usual rear drive BMW are known for. It produces just over 400horses from the twin-turbo charged V8, which will do 20 highway miles to the gallon. So not the most economic car in the world but if you can afford to buy this type of a car, you can usually afford to stop at the gas station too. This should be a great car for travelling in great comfort as these cars are know for being as comfortable as the couch in front of the television, but this car is lacking in this department. The comfort of the 7 series is not as comfortable as its predecessors and competition. The driving position is not very good and actually the chairs really don’t feel too comfortable either, even when messing with the central command it’s hard to get comfortable. The central command center has been slightly updated to make it more user friendly and can pretty much control anything in the car; seats, windows, suspension, windscreen wipers, lights, radio, SAT navigation, temperature and he list goes on. Now BMW got rid of the run flat tires they had been using for many years you will no longer have to set the suspension up like a cruise ship rocking back and forth on the softer settings.
