Has anyone mentioned the quattroporte??
I'm not a big fan of the new body but it should definitely be considered in the S vs 7 debate, even if it's not part of the BMW vs MB rivalry...

Maserati Quattroporte is superb though I have to admit........and if there is one thing that is good about the Fiat-Chrysler merger, it's that the infotainment system has improved by leaps and bounds over the previous-gen (which back then was ridiculously inferior for a car of such stature)

If you look at videos made of the interior, you can see the ambient lighting flicker. This is a common trademark of LEDs, as the camera picks up LED flickering, but humans cant see it. You would see the same effect on the head and tailights. These are definitely LEDs.

The missing tooth look between the front kidney grills is uber bizarre.As much as I like the rest of the car, the missing tooth would stop me from buying the 7er.

I need to see it as I just can't seem to like it, the weight has put me right off and lack of good diesel power, this car will NOT be any quicker or more economical IMO.
The MPG- 0-62 times are way off in most cases apart for the "M" cars. Big square Barge comes to mind. Technology is fine but how much can we use/need "on the move"?.

Compared to the Audi A8 and MB S Class, this design is just messy; but this is nothing new because BMW is always a step behind with the design of the 7 series.

Without that M-Sport package, it looks ordinary. Kia K900 maybe?

The more I see of this car, the more I love it. It's not revolutionary, sure, but for those of us who truly love the 7, we don't want a revolution. It seems like the only thing that would make the critics here happy is if BMW hired the entire Mercedes team and produced an S. If you want an S, go buy one.
I love this car, and I suspect this will be the best selling 7 ever. |

BMW M Chief Frank Van Meel : We are not interested in making an M7
http://www.worldcarfans.com/11507089...m2-coming-soon So if that's the case, then the next best thing would indeed be the upcoming 760Li M-Sport. P.S. I didn't include Alpina because Alpina is not real BMW branded performance..... |
