1988 BMW 7 Series 750iL review from North America
"You wanted the best, you got the best!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oxygen sensor replaced.
Driveline support bearing replaced.
All fluids replaced.
Minor tune-up.
General comments?
The car is very fast, handles like a sports car.
The car is very nice inside lots of room, seats are comfortable and the controls are easy to use.
The stock radio has been replaced with a new Kenwood, I left the stock speakers in and they sound great.
My plans are to upgrade the exhaust for a little better flow.
This car is not cheap to own, if you are looking for an inexpensive ride this is not the car for you.
I decided to buy a 750il because I love BMW's and the engine in this beast makes my heart pound V12 baby!
I do all my own work on the car. I studied this car for a whole year before I purchased one. I think BMW makes the best cars in the world.
The 750il is the only car I know of that you could race on Sunday, and take your son's basketball team to school on Monday. You get it all sports car, luxury car and mini van.
Overall the best damn car period!
