2008 750Li

I've been meaning to get the pics of the new 750Li up for a while...in any event, here they are! It's been interesting compared to the A8L that it replaced, but overall, I'd say that I like it better. Without further ado, here are the pics!

Thanks! You'd be SHOCKED how well the car performs. It has very sharp turn in, great feel/responsiveness, and mind-boggling grip for the size of the car. I find myself shocked at how fast I can eat up very tight backroads with the car. Not to mention the fact that the car is pretty quick in a straight line, and feels like a vault at extremely felonious speeds. It's definitely great transportation Because it's a lease...I can't justify spending mod money on it. If it had an electronic suspension, however, I would put a lowering module on it

Matt Matt Matt, nice powerful car.
But I like he A8L too. The A8 is timeless.
Our Federal Chancellor is driving a 750iL.
Did you buy this car or leasing. What is better in US if you are
self-dependent.

Ahh, yep, cant do too much modding in that case lol. Still a great car, and it is awesome that it performs that well to be so big, gotta love bimmers! Any underhood shots, or interiors?

Neel, thanks again for all your help. If I had been in the area, I would've called you...alas, I was nowhere near. Anu came down and delivered the car to the house.

Chris...I'm DYING at that gif!

Thanks for all the compliments, everybody! Dom...it's all about personal preference. In my opinion, for a car that's used as a daily driver, when you don't want to keep it more than 2-3 years, it makes more sense to lease. Especially with the 750Li, where the lease is lower than the depreciation. Makes way more sense.

That's beautiful.

I always think "Transporter" when I see a 7.

There's a mystery that exists in the aura of these cars. Whenever you see one in motion, you can never be absolutely sure of the vehicles intent. It could simply be on a trip out to the summerhouse, or it could have enough blow in the trunk to give Phoenix a white Christmas.

Love it.

Thanks guys! Seth...needless to say, this one will be used exclusively for journeys of the former persuasion. Ironic how Phoenix actually got snow this year .

That is an amazing and beautiful car but at $122,600 it is BMW's most expensive vehicle by leaps and bounds. So, I'm a little confused. I can't think of why anyone would choose it over an M5 or M6. Actually you could buy an M5 AND M3 for the price. Is it vastly superior in luxury and ride quality to any other BMW? Sorry, im a little ignorant when it comes to the 7 series. What is its niche purpose? Basically a BMW Limo??
