What did you do to your G70 today?

patrikr · 01-31-2023, 04:42 PM

mattsrs suggested I started a "What did you do to your G70 today" thread so we can post pictures and other things we like or have done to the car.

I picked up my 760 from my local Utah dealer Friday last week. Originally I went to the dealer to see if the X7 would be a good upgrade to my 2020 X5 M50i that I feel is a little small and when I was there I saw a 760 in the showroom and I knew I wanted one as soon as I saw the interior. I like the X7 LCI but the interior in the 7 series just a different class IMO.

I didn't want the car in the showroom but they said they had two more coming in and after seeing both I and negotiating a great deal I opted for the Frozen Grey one with Black/Atlas interior. The weather was pretty bad when I picked it up and because of how much snow we've gotten this year I went straight to Discount Tire to put on all-season tires (there's another thread about that as there are no options for the 7 series in the standard size). The car is currently getting full PPF installed as I've read how difficult frozen paints can difficult to fix in case you get rock chips or scratches.

Congratulations again on your beautiful car! Thanks for posting the photos

Midwest7 · 02-01-2023, 08:49 AM

Beautiful car, congrats!! And great thread idea. I hope to see this many pages long one day

Mr.blue · 02-01-2023, 10:57 AM

Congratulations, the car is beautiful! I hope to post something soon. The crappy weather we are having is preventing me from doing anything. It’s been raining or ice rain since the day after I purchased the car. Good idea for a thread.

Enjoy your new BMW and drive it in good health!

Beemer2018 · 02-01-2023, 09:05 PM

Congratulations 🥳 and enjoy!

I finally picked up my 760 this weekend and its been awesome so far! It is carbon black on tartufo and it has exec, m sport pro, drive assist pro, and park assist packs. My buddy has an ix and we did a "car date" today

. Here are some photos of the car

bimori · 02-05-2023, 03:45 PM

Enjoy your car. This is the best 7 ever. I’ve got 1400 miles already on mine. I smile every time I get in to drive it

patrikr · 02-05-2023, 05:29 PM

mattsrs, it’s finally here!! Congrats, she’s a beauty!! The more I look at these cars, the more I think dark colors suit this car the best.

Yea man. Its hell of a car! I drove A8 and S class before deciding on 760 and 760 is so perfect compared to those! Unbelievable how well it absorbs the bumps and also can be very sporty in sports mode

Thanks buddy! Excited to be in the club now! I also think dark colors look good on these especially the front bumper since it blends with the black designs of the M package

Do you have active drive pro with road preview option ? Exec package 2 omitted this due to chip shortage?

I assume you are referring to active driving assistant pro? Thats listed under Driving Assistant professional on my window sticker ( see below)

See my attached pic - its under Executive package - Active Comfort Drive with Road Preview, this option adjusts the suspension dampers in real-time based on stereoscopic cameras that scan the road ahead. Similar to E-ABC option available in S-class. Active Driving Assistant pro is the hands free ADAS program to my knowledge. I am very encouraged by your view-point that you feel your 760 has an awesome suspension in comparison to A8 and S-Class. Enjoy your vehicle my friend, I love the color combination!

Yea I don’t know how much more this car can be comfortable. All pavements/roads seem so perfect to me now in this car 😂

After three months of ownership, I've added two accessories to my 760.

Put the ceramic window tint on the roof and front windows. No real tint but even though I have the comfort laminated glass, you could still feel the sun through the sunroof. I live in LA. The ceramic coating- with the laminated glass- does take out almost all heat now.

Ring car cam- I've been meeting to get a car cam and was glad Ring came out with theirs as it can integrate with the Ring app for all the other Ring cameras I have around the house. It's pretty cool as it takes video in front and in the car and you can review past and real time footage through the app.
