Bold color for a 7 series. Kinda like it but kinda not like it.

Yes, bold. Red was my second choice for last full-sized (sporty) sedan (I opted for classic black); and thought of getting my G70 in red (instead of the Tanzanite Blue II).... but now I'm kind of glad I didn't. This just doesn't fully showcase the elegance that's built into our car's architecture.

Definitely looks sportier and younger but also a hunk of a Barbie car. Never seen a car model so color dependent as this version of the 7. Looks completely different in different colors.

The car is so ugly that it’s almost impossible to mess up the next generation 7 series.

The photos hardly show what this car actually looks like. Anyway, this paint seems like a conscious attempt of turning someone’s main disadvantage (looks) into some sort of manifest

And on top of that it’s electric…

Too many flaws with this one

The BMWCCA auction this year has a Ruby Star Neo M3. Don’t like it at all in either vehicle.

Since when did colors like this become popular on a 7? Its not a color for the 7 at all.

A color like this would go well on a m3/m4, like the previous post to this one (ruby star neo project G80 m3). Now that looks nice! Especially with the white wheels.

1000000% agree, I like the luxurious interior but still, it’s missing something that the older 7s had. I feel like it’s missing that sporty engaging feeling that you would get from the older 7s. It’s hard to describe but these new 7s just don’t have that spark like they once did.

All around it’s a very luxurious car and bmw did very well in that aspect (over succeeded if you ask me) but forgot about its roots it’s BMW DNA, that engagement (again hard to describe).

Oh I still think the color is… not great. The wheels on that E38 don’t make it any better. But it is more tolerable IMHO.

Very bold color. May not support the car’s mission as an executive transportation choice … yet why not. The future belongs the bold ones.
