BMW should've ditched the "L" internationally and named both short and long wheelbase models 740i/750i. Less confusing than "i" meaning long wheelbase stateside, but short internationally. Going from 750i/750Li to 750i stateside makes the model seem lesser here.
Further complicating matters, there's the i3 and i8 as well; nothing to do with fuel injection, but a play on iPod/iPhone/iPad.

Yes, but I also see the other side. If there is an "L", then the next question is where is the short wheel base.
The average buyer knows nothing about the rest of the world.
