It’s amazing. Good Pictures to follow soon.

Black sapphire metallic and black inside.

The ride is amazing. Power is amazing. Quietness is amazing. Comfort is superb. Tech is out-of-this-world amazing.

The menus are a bit overwhelming - but I will learn them soon enough.

Digital key plus is awesome. Voice assistant is finally worth using vs. using it in the older, recent bmw models.

Theater screen set up with Att was easy. The rear exec loung is comfy and unique.

The sound system plus the 4d seat bass boosters are too cool.

Auto opening and closing doors only took 10 minutes to get used to and now they’re awesome.

I don’t like the extra huge size of the bmw roundel on the trunk - it’s obnoxiously big imho.

More later as well as pics.

Awesome. More pictures please!

How was your experience finding the right car for you? Our dealer is saying they can’t order one until the summer.

I placed a pre-order in April 2022, and still haven’t received my vehicle. There is a back log of custom ordered units. But if you are patient and look nationwide there is an inventory for i7 at MSRP/slightly below MSRP because the price of all EVs (new and used) are in a free fall. There was a great WSJ talking about this recently. As luxurious as the i7 is, the EV tech is already a dinosaur compared to its peers (800V architecture in Porsche, Audi). IMHO, the 760xi will have a higher re-sale value in two years compared to i7 because as the WSJ article says battery tech is increasing at an exponential rate and supply costs are falling due to economies of scale for these batteries.

To the OP, happy to see you received your i7, definitely one of the first to get a custom ordered vehicle. Definitely jealous - mine is in production at the moment. Enjoy your vehicle in good health.

I ordered mine back in June or July I think. It took forever - but it was worth the wait!!

Congrats! Not and I7 question, but a Sewell one, lol! Ordered an ‘24 X6 from Grapevine location that should get here in April or May. I noticed that you don’t have the chrome Sewell badging on the back. Did you ask them beforehand not to put it on there? I typically debadge or replaced with black badging, and would be great if it’s not on there to begin with. 1st time purchasing through Sewell, so don’t know what point they add their badging.

AlteBMW · 03-05-2023, 09:22 AM

Enjoy it!

I always say not to put it on - and if they do, it’s easy and fast for them to remove it. Who’s your sales guy - Bryan?

Great! Will be sure to let them know. Working with Rob. Recommended by a friend that worked with him on his recent M4 and a few past purchases.

I wish. No. You can’t see squat with screen down. Bmw did not think this one through!!!! Lol

02M3ForMe · 03-06-2023, 01:32 PM

Congratulations!

Based on my time with one, I'd be surprised if this car isn't a smash hit for BMW. No idea why someone would buy a Model S instead of this.

JamRWS6 · 03-06-2023, 02:27 PM

BMW of Grapevine - my last several have come from here. Congrats on the i7 - have not seen one yet but the new 7s are very impressive!

SliChillax · 03-06-2023, 02:28 PM

I recommend getting a blacked out BMW roundel and making the blue circle around it also black so it'll be masked with the car and not look as big.

Model S is way cheaper? Even the Plaid let alone the Long Range version.
