So long time Bimmer owner, first time land yacht owner! I'm taking delivery Saturday so pretty excited.
2017 w 26k miles..... frickin' loaded MSport! Coming from a F10 550i, modded so I agonized over going to a X7 40i and finally landed on G12 750i xdrive! I have a young family, so I thought 3rd row was a must, but doing the math... instead of 1 - $90k car, we decided to get 2 cars for that total! So I picked up this beaut for like $55k and we are gonna probably upgrade our LR3 to a LR4 3rd row (I know, I have the only LR3 that is not 3rd row). I look forward to my rear seats getting destroyed by my daughter but oh well. Should be quiet travels in this climate though since we aren't flying.

Sweet! Congrats on the ride! Did you get extended warranty?
I have two kids myself, 2.5 and 1 year old. These set covers save my seat. I have ivory leather. https://www.buybuybaby.com/store/pro...n-grey/5213334

No kidding... mine was in an old Caravan and a Ford Ranger Extended cab (fold down jump seats).....I probably should do the same but alas... this next generation is bound to have different means.

I have similar covers now... but seems like your kids haven't hit the "kick the back of the seat phase" or "grind in gold fish crackers" phase or "oops I spilled my milk" phase!

Been debating on buying the BMW seat covers which cover both the seat and the back of the seat. No food allowed and only spill proof cups but they are kids so shit does happen. Luckily seat covers have been awesome. I do have 5 yr leather coverage in case something does happen. Have used to serval times already on the front seats and it's paid itself off. I'll never do ivory white again lol. https://www.getbmwparts.com/oem-part...se-82122448367

Congrats on your new ride. Don't forget to track down the lad that purchased it new and thank him for paying $105-$115K just a couple of years ago! )
Question for forum - has it been determined if there any other luxury sedans (except perhaps Maybach) that has larger/more roomy rear seats than 7 series? My neighbor has a Bentley Continental Flying Spur and it isn't even close. |

The depreciated price was what attracted me in the first place.... What. A. Car! I got her a day early! Drove the hour or so home in traffic and what a joy!
I'm not in the typical Atlanta monthly payment crowd, but this value is incredible! I'll get the warranties and such... I have had a N63 for 6 years now... with this newer version, I would only assume it's got slightly less issues as well as all the electronic goodies that are additional failure points. All in all... it's not any worse than most modern high tech cars. The idrive menu alone on this thing needs a software engineering degree to operate it lol!
