In my opinion the 7 should have never been made ever, but I do like this one. Looks much better than the old one.

and whoever said that it had more hp in a magazine review is right. BMW underrates their hp quotes.

BMW underrates their hp quotes? That 7 series is not the best looking, but more luxury style.

My father just ordered a brand new M5.

Phat ass face lift. It's weird, because its easy to tell the trunk lights weren't there before. I mean, doesn't look bad at all, but going to have to get used to it with the eyes. Very nice, thanks for the info.

The new facelifted 7 series from BMW

BMW has facelifted the seven and is re-releasing it....What do you guys think?

http://www.bmwusa.com/BMW2003/Templa...T=Guest&bhcp=1

Front end has something vaguely "Lincoln"-ish about it. Almost like a bastard child front end of an X3 and a Lincoln

Rear looks better than the first but I'm not sure by how much

i think i like it better than the last model, the minor changes to alot for it, especially the front end, and the ass looks more sporty too. Is this going to be a new model designation?

No kidding. I bet that love is strongly reinforced every time you see the V12 before betting in the car and further reinforced when you hit the gas and feel the V12
