After getting a ****ty deal on my a8L (realized only months later experiencing the fast depreciation of the Audi) I decided to trade the A8L in this week for a BMW 750Li. I have no regrets (other than the deal) with the A8L, just frequenly put me to sleep (literally)...just ask lou how many times i nearly passed out on the highway.

I went with Lou to Perillo BMW, where I test drove the 750i (short wheelbase) and I can I have never experienced a tighter, better handling full size sedan than the 750. From a dead stop, it wants to leave rubber on the ground, (I think 0 - 60 in 5.5sec or so) and it pulls pretty damn good. The handling is LEVEL around exit ramps, and overall ride is smooth as silk. I wasn't too happy with the short base's rear leg room, so I opted for the Li. (8" longer)

The car arrives Oct 6th, with sport package, premium sound/HiDef speakers, luxury seating, comfort access(keyless go), convenience, cold weather, etc.. in BLack/Black. It comes with standard 19" wheels, but I'm seeking 21 to 22" sport style rims (NOT the MTV, Unique whips, chrome look) - more so like BBS'ish, Hartge, ACS, etc... Please post pics of 745's with custom rims.

I highly recommend Perillo BMW to all 6speeders nationwide seeking a BMW. When it comes down to getting the deal done, Joe Perillo is the man! They move cars, with increasing customer loyalty.. That was the best dealer experience I had purchasing a new car, period. --- www.perillobmw.com --

 

this is a nice set of wheels.

i respect the fact that factory has optional 21'' package for the car, and it looks good!

 

Arling, do you mean the 5 spoke one that looks like techart? I've only seen it on a 6 series....do you have any pics of that?

 

Ryan,
that's right. does look like TA wheel.

i don't have better pics except seeing few on the road. it looks so clean on the car that makes the car looks much nicer.

here is a option pic on the web & it's not in the catalog.

 

have fun w/ it, 2 of the 5 new 7 series in my family have been bought back from BMW

 

Call me for snow tires Ryan, you'll need them.

 

Shank congrats...

 

Ryan,

I have been saying this ever since I bought my 7. Now you know exactly what I am talking about. The 7 is a true driver's car! The car is phenomenol and the handling is astounding for a car of it's size. It takes all corners so flat that you feel like you want to go back and take the same corner again just to experience it again. At the same time it is completely comfortable even with the 19"s. The thing also pulls like a **** and revs effortlessly. Congrats on the car! Now all you have to do is have Reus come out and do the audio. I have heard that their 7 series system is freaking awesome and even better than the 996 SST system.

 

the 7 system is with premium sound and HiDef speakers (13 speakers) - its also connected to the i-Drive. What and how does reus do to enhance that?

 

I drove Joe's 7 last night for about an hour on the highway.......that car is FAST!! Glad you finally agree with me on BMW's handling/driving experience...... Here are some pics....
