I don't disagree with you, they're great cars. Hows the i vs Li?

They're actually quite different. The LI cars both ride like a complete dream, silky smooth ride. I do have the 19" wheels on the LI's which I should have gotten for the "i" also. I really like the way the 20" wheels look, but I hate how they ride. The LI's also look more substantial, you can easily spot the difference when viewing from the side.

My 750i drives much like my 550i did only it's a much nicer car.
The rear leg room in the 750i is also much less than that of the LI's.

If I were to have only one 7 series, I would want an LI with the 19" wheels. They both have this unique natural frequency when on the road and I really like it.

Wow three 7-series in the same color. Definitely eccentric but its all about what makes you happy. I love the poplar wood w saddle interior. Great excuse for a three car garage.

Well you've convinced me. I've added an F02 740li to compliment my e66 750li. Best cars around.

What exactly did you achieve by that post of yours.The man loves his cars[like all of us] and wanted to share his happiness with the forum.Its plain and simple.I hope you know OSX personally because your remarks seem quite unnecessary and immature/rude coming from just another forum member.A remark like that will only bring back unpleasant responses from others/OP which does not bode good for this forum.Most of the F02 owners are mature adults and they neither need to lie or explain their acts to everyone here.At the end of the day Its his money and can spend whichever way he feels is justifiable.I am not being angry here but I hope you get the gist.

I agree with you. I deleted the post rather quickly and didnt even expect anyone to read it. But yep, my apologies to OSX. Uncalled for post.

Great looking rides, you sir are one crazy man haha

Have you thought about any mods to your cars? Maybe black grilles, lowering, wheels, etc? Three modded 7ers together would look wicked

Don't try to make sense of it, there is no sense to be made of it, just appreciate it
i actually can understand this because i'm in my mid 30s and i narrowed down to pretty much what works for me in term of clothing and toys. (can't afford more than 1 bmw yet but i plan to have more than 1)

when i like something really good, such as polo sweater or nike free run shoes, i have more than one with different color combo.

this concept will probably applies in the future purchase of cars too. i really like the 5 series right now and multiple color of ext/int will def works.

osxcode, thanks for the amazing pictures!

Peronally I like the one with the Ivory interiour the most, judging by the pictures.

As I've told you before, after you explaned the feeling the car(s) give you, I actually understand you buying 3 the same cars!

You probably have to explain this a lot though...
