What about the 750i compared to the 740. I see I get all the extras on the 750, like NAV and Xenon, but "never" on the 740. Is the V12 expensive to maintain? Any known major issues either on the 4.4L 740 or the V12?
this is not true, you can get all the options like nav and xenon on the 740, and only some of the pre 4.4L engines had the nikasil problem, go to E38.org or to www.bimmerboard.com for accurate information, DTMpower is not good for 7 series cars.
