7 Series [Official] New BMW 7-Series / i7 (G70/G71)

Its such a shame there wont be an Alpina B7 version of the new model. I still think the previous G11 version looked fantastic

Definitely, the best version, the most successful, came from outside.

G11 truly is a modern day E38. What a beautiful thing.

Even the Alpina treatment won't be able to save this current gen abomination.

Quite the opposite, the real shame would be an ugly Alpina B7.

I just happened to catch one at the restaurant on my lunch break and one or two buzzing around. I don`t hate it as much as I used to.
It is a big tall car no doubt. The thought occurred to me, you look at some of the nasty generic American cars next to it and how they all have grown in height and these are ice vehicles. The 7er doesn't look so bad after all.

I am still not a fan but I have learned how to embrace it and its differences.

I , too, feel like that's where I am at with the 7er. As long as it's not specced with the M-sport pack, I think it's solid-looking car; not pretty but not nearly as off-putting as I once considered it. Definitely still polarizing. Seeing it in person where you get a much better of the details in all its 3D glory, the headlight set-up makes more sense.

Look what passed me in the fast lane today.

The back of the new 740i looks good but the front is too high and the grill too large to make it look elegant.

I don't think elegant was part of the design brief for the G70.

I saw one of these at the dealer last week. It was a 191K. NO WAY is BMW worth that kinda coin.

It seems that reality is what speaks through the dealers and buyers, there must be a lot of demand, almost a year after its presentation it is maintaining and increasing the price.

Unless you have sales figures for the USA for the i7 M70 then you’re talking out your neck. Again.

So in other words, no you don't have anything.

[dalab]

What do you base on establishing that the car is not worth that? your intuition?
Something is wrong because as you say, they are selling it at that value.

Word salad means you don’t know what you’re talking about and have nothing. Just keep posting garble.

You know something that others don't, as always, if the car is worth that at this point it shouldn't be because there is no demand, but since that doesn't enter in your head, you don't accept it
It's unpleasant to exchange two words with you, better continue on your way.

Which means you don’t understand the simple concept of a car being overpriced because it has a roundel on it. Total shocker.
