On another related note, isn’t it fun trying to wash the windshield? I’m 6’1” and I have trouble reaching the top center of the windshield, especially if I am trying to not allow my clothing to touch the fender. The car is just SO tall & broad.

BUT, at the end of the day, when I sink into the huge, Marino Leather seat, relax to the rich sound of the B&W Diamond audio and feel that astonishingly, smooth, silent thrust as the car floats down the highway, the idiosyncrasies of the exterior design disappear and I just enjoy the ride.

Oh, and I almost forgot: I have not needed to return to the dealer for ANYTHING that wasn’t working properly, unlike my experience with another, German, luxury brand I could mention.
Yes, this. I am not thrilled with the exterior look but it’s grown on me. I purposely got it in black for this reason.

If you had told me I would ever consider a 7 series like 6 months ago…I’d thought you were crazy and that it was just an ugly car. Then the Cybertruck came out and I thought…..maybe this isn’t so bad LOL.
