7 Series [Official] BMW 7 Series (G11/12)


The BMW 7 Series is a full-size luxury sedan manufactured and marketed by the German automaker BMW since 1977. It is the successor to the BMW E3 "New Six" sedan. The 7 Series is BMW's flagship car and is only available in a sedan bodystyle (including long wheelbase and limousine models). It traditionally introduces technologies and exterior design themes before other models in BMW's lineup.
I am over the whole "murdered out" look ever since my mid to late 20's. But, dammit, I kinda, sorta like it on this. Something about the stance. It's something I'd never spec and if I saw it on the road in person, I'd deride it for trying too hard and think its owner is the paragon of being a tool.

I'm still in my late 20's so I'll use that excuse :P
 
It's the automotive equivalent of double triple quadruple denim...

Or maybe it's a pre-hipster slightly Emo goth thing? I wanna paint my room black because black is like my heart and no-one understand me.... (wow, that concept takes me back to my college days :LOL::blackalien: )




and the fact it's an Alpina...

...in the words of Mr Clint Eastwood... "Can you imagine defacing a work of art like this with a color like that? Guy ought to have his ass removed" *
*The Rookie, 1990




Anyway.. no offence to anyone, we all have our own tastes and I think I'm just grumpy because it's too fecking hot!

On an Alpina, black is definitely not the color I'd go with.


Also, just because I love the Goth Kids on South Park

For the sake of balance...

I'm not a fan of the Alpina B7 Exclusive edition for Canada...

Can't really figure out what's "Canadian" about black on black on black. At least with their traditional blue or green one can surmise they are respectively referring to blue waters in their lakes or the evergreens along the treeline that inhabit the mountains.
 
BMW M750Li xDrive In Rose Quartz Has That Special Look
The striking shade is a factory finish through BMW Individual, and it's for sale.

Abu Dhabi Motors is a haven for exquisite BMWs that we just don’t really see anywhere else. Case in point is this new 750Li xDrive, wearing a curious exterior finish BMW calls Rose Quartz. It reminds us of a special Porsche 911 GTS we saw almost a year ago finished in a similar pink/lavender shade called Frozen Berry Metallic, but the big Bimmer’s paint job seems to have a bit more electricity within it. We like electricity.
This car comes through BMW Individual, the automaker’s in-house personalization group that can do everything from mixing up special exterior colors like this, to combining special interior materials and even inscribing your name on the dash. It certainly catches the eye, and yes, sitting behind the wheel one would certainly be viewing the world through rose-colored glasses. Actually, we don’t see any reference to the cool color on the outside reflected in the interior, but cut us a break. As professional scribes we’re obligated to use the rose-colored glasses pun anytime something remotely close to this color pop up in our newsfeed.
A snazzy exterior color isn’t the only thing that helps this 7 Series stand out from the pack. It has an M Sport package to give it some extra bite, and there’s also a 3D Design Front Spoiler that manages to be properly subtle while still adding some excitement to the Bimmer’s nose. Even more subtle is the M Performance spoiler on the edge of the trunk that could well be the smallest add-on wing we’ve ever seen.
Altogether, it makes for a fantastic combination as far as we’re concerned. It’s not easy to pull off a color like this without making the car look like something a door-to-door cosmetics salesman would drive. This 760Li manages to be classy and aggressive at the same time, and with that crisp color you’ll never miss it in a car park. Dare we say the future for the eventual owner of this ride is coming up roses? Yup, we absolutely do.

IMHO, the most attractive BMW OEM rims currently on offer. They'd look great on the new 8 as well. A 22" version would be cool as well.
 
Why do so many 7-series models(including the M760s) have the exact same interior combo ? It looks incredibly bland.
 
Abu Dhabi BMW always have the 760Li in the craziest colours.

This is a good birthday gift for a wife who likes to be chauffeured.
