(Soon to be) new owner of a g12

Good morning people of the forums,

I come from 4er forums!

I’ve been searching for a new vehicle for about the past year and a half, my f32 has been wonderful to me and I’m very sad to replace it. The only reason I’m looking to is cause it’s been 6 years and I’m looking into something new.

For quite some time, I debated between the f32 440 and the f06 650. Every 6 series I’ve driven I just can’t justify the price for what is now 2 generations and 10 years old. I absolutely adore them but something’s holding me back. F32’s still drive phenomenally but I consistently feel if I’m spending 30g’s then I might as well go for a 650 for the extra options, and the cycle continues.

Well, if you’ve seen my history, you know that I have an e38 in my stable. A 2000 750il with the v12. It is a dream car of mine and I’ve always wanted one, and I love the 7 platform as a whole (barring the new one)

When I worked at a BMW dealership, these were some of my favorite cars to drive. Such range and dynamics with the 6,8 and 12 cylinders and the fit and finish is just a step up. It’s a beautifully designed car and I’m partial to the pre-lci g12. With all that context in mind, the reason I’m posting today is because this weekend I’m going to be looking at a 2017 BMW 750 that I’m sure is the right one for me.

As a potentially new owner, n63’s are not new to me but I’ve never owned one. I’m very familiar with turbo lines and the pcv’s that these seem to chew through but outside of that, what are some general issues and maintenance that I should expect to be doing in the near future? The car has had 2 owners, and sits at 57k miles.

I’ll start a new thread if and when I buy and receive the car since I’ll be having it shipped to me, but thank you all in the mean time for your advice!
