Ok, Here it is, my 2014 750i arrived today! Collect all 3

So it's official, 750i, my 3rd 7, is now on the ground and in my garage. The interior is just stunning, more so than I though it would be.

Only one problem, it's having the same "Limited Parking Brake functionality" that my 2nd 2014 is having. It's a new part # that seems to have an issue. I hope BMW gets to the bottom of that because it is more than a coincidence.

That said, This is going to be a wonderful car! It does drive so different from my other two 750LI's though, much sportier.

Ill post more pics when I have a chance

Nah, I usually drive one for a week or so then my guy comes and cleans it and I move on to the next one. Sometimes I drive all of them and he cleans all of them. Just depends on mood really.

Is that saddle interior? If so how do you like them.My personal preference was ivory but with a kid,it doesn't seem practical.The photos of saddle seem to have a pinkish hue.

I hate the saddle in pictures, you really have to see it in person. It photographs like a light colored brown/tan but it has alot of color. It looks very nice in person, very rich and luxurious, especially with the light poplar trim. I really like it. I also have the 750LI with the Ivory leather, its very different and I like it as much as I like the saddle color, but, it in fact shows everything! It would make no sense if you have kids, unless you wipe it down every time something shows up.

Very interesting psychologically to have 3. I know you love the car- but what's your reason to have 3 of the same car? Just to change interiors?

Just curious, as you understand this is highly unusual. But interesting!

Yes, I wanted each interior just the way I ordered them. Why not? I buy everything in threes. It keeps me in balance.

Amazing! I never heard of someone buying the same car 3 times, hehe. But hey, if you like it, why not
I'd probably go for an M6 GC, an M550d wagon and an M3 convertible, just a different ride for every opportunity

I contimplated having different models, but when I had several different BMW's I always found myself in certain rides more than the others. Before I had the 7, I had a 335 Convertible, X5 and 550 GT, I always found myself in the GT.

The 7 is def. more my style, When I am in one of my 7's, I don't care what the outside world is doing -- Im just relaxed and in my own atmosphere, enjoying Goldfrapp or something and not worrying about how fast I get to the destination because I enjoy the car so much. The 7 makes me feel good, sort of like an automotive Jacuzzi. It's actually made me a much better driver too.

I think of the 7 as my personal luxury yacht, just rolling down the road, looking nice without being imposing and having a composed, refined and stately allure about it.

That's why I bought 3 - different interiors for every mood (all my favorites) but the same ambiance every time, nothing weird to learn or different functionality to master.

Waw, that makes so much sense actually
If the cars make you feel like that, it is totally woth it, I think!
In the end, it's all about the feeling you have, as with so many other things in life!
Anyway, congrats on your beatuiful cars and enjoy them to the fullest on many safe miles!

Congrats and you are unique that you like 3 exact same cars.

It would bore me to death to have 3 almost same exact cars. I would rather have 3 different cars probably from different manufacturers. I like variety and some where in my lineup there would be a pure sports car.
