1997 BMW 7 Series 740i review from North America
"This car will last forever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
This car is beautifull to look at and is still today one of the nicest cars ont he road. It handles like a dream and when you hit the gas the engine maske a lovely noise. The interior cabin is incredibly comfortable and roomy even though it isn't the long wheelbase model. The seats are comfortable and the car is loaded with standard features such as rear sunshade, heated steering wheel, wood shift knob, xenon lights and more. Also I purchased every factory option available inculding partronic,12 speaker sound, heated rear seats, phone and wood steering wheel so that makes the car even more enjoyable.
