But here is my question: I usually buy (finance )my vehicles and keep them up and use them a long time. This worked out clearly very well for my lexus. We also bought our E-tron, and keep using it after the term (with some battery issues thankfully covered by warranty)
Is this a good strategy for BMW? Since we already have an electric, I want a gas engine.
If so, which one do you suggest 740i or 760i. I am not crazy about the horsepower and 0-to-60 numbers, I am more of a comfort seeker. Which one of these engines are more reliable and dependable? Also other than ust the power perspective, are thera other crucial aspects to make one engine more desirable to the other..
Thank you so much in advance..I am excited and eager to get in to this car!

I chose the inline 6 over the V8, much smoother and plenty of power for a comfort oriented daily and mine is fully loaded outside of TV in rear which I did not want. I love it. Ride quality is good without autobahn.
