Quoted: Even one. Just one. All I’m asking for is a single Beemer driver that isn’t a prolapsed rectum. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Ah, the ultimate driving machine. If only we could find some ultimate drivers.... Even one. Just one. All I’m asking for is a single Beemer driver that isn’t a prolapsed rectum. Never been behind a Bmer that I wasn't about to run over from behind going around turns, in my truck. |

Quoted: Depending on who you believe, we're watching the "China-fication" of design trends. The F-150 is sold primarily in the US, in huge numbers, and that truck is tailored to this North American (Often "fucking bigot white males") audience. Over the decades some designs were better than others, but it's one of the better looking vehicles on the road. Vehicles that get sold in China, sometimes get tailored to that market (again if you believe the "conspiracy people" in comments sections, and not the intentionally vague non-answer official statements given by the brands taking the heat Re: what appears to be intentionally ugly vehicle designs), and they look like ass. View Quote I’ve heard that too, but in my experience it isn’t true, at least not for the 18-30 crowd. I work with a lot of Chinese people and my university had a LOT of rich Chinese kids driving brand new luxury and exotic cars. The Chinese I’ve showed the M4 to either dislike it or are apathetic. No one liked it so far. But that’s just an anecdote and my sample maybe doesn’t represent the mainland Chinese market well. |

The 7 series has been a absolute pile of junk abortion for almost 20 years.....
Hey, let's pay 80-100k for a car that will cost us 8-15k once the 4yr/50k warranty is up. Coolant tube leaks, valve seals leak and it burns quarts (plural) in 500 miles. As painful as it is for me to say this..... buy a freaking Lexus...... |

Worst part about this new 7 is the flat bottom steering wheel. What set BMW apart from the competition up until now was that they were driver-oriented machines. When Audi and MB were using gimmicks like flat bottom steering wheels to sell cars, BMW stayed true and gave us a round interface to controlling the vehicle. Now, they too have given in to this utter bullshit. Would not buy because of the steering wheel alone.

Quoted: Can't we just go back to the epitome of 7 series perfection? http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--NPQwGArtfU/U9KvT93CTwI/AAAAAAAAL9k/Kf2OI88MLHs/s1600/2002+BMW+7+Series+E65.jpg View Quote That was the worst 7 series ever made. |

Man, that new 7 series is UGLY and I even like the huge grill stuff Audi is doing!
IMHO, BMW has been getting uglier and softer since 2004. The 4th gen was the last decent looking 3 series and they have all kinda followed the se.path is hideous. |

Quoted: Call me a boomer, but I've always wanted a 90's 740IL.... Bean grill, square body. Biggest engine. View Quote You want the 750iL. V12 engine. I almost bought one. Until a BMW service manager warned me it would be like Sharon Stone in the movie Casino. It would look beautiful, seduce you, bewitch you, but never do what you want, never run right, need constant attention, soak up all your money, break down often and wreck your life. |

That looks like my nephew used a ruler and tried to draw dildos crossing on the grill..

BMW is dead to me... between the ugly and the loss of manuals in almost all their vehicles as well as suspensions that Cadillac now surpasses when it goes sporty and even get ragged on by even the previously kinda boaty M-B line, they are only a lingering figment of '80s yuppiedom for the aspirational social climber, not the driving enthusiast.

Just the death throes of the ICE-based auto industry.
Murdered by Woke-assed management, assisted by the Winged-monkeys of Climate Communisim. TC P.S.—I thought I’d made a mistake buying my 911/996. Seeing the new tech-geek, luxo-cruiser 911’s, I’m happy. I saw an ‘83 911SC up on the lift at my mech the other day. It is so pure and simple. Politicians need to be tarred and feathered for what they’ve done to cars. Fuck CARB. Fuck CAFE. Fuck IIHS. All should rot in Hell. |

Despite what any of us car guys think, BMW is going to sell every single one they build. We just have to learn to swallow our puke when one goes past.

If you want a bigger BMW get an SUV or the 5 Series. The 7 has never been that great.
Or get a Mercedes |

Gross. Some aftermarket company is going to make a ton of money when they redesign these front bumpers and grills.

I can't stand this front grill war that BMW, Lexus, and Audi seem to be in lol.
One of these days an M760i xDrive will come down enough in price i'll drop the hammer on one. |

They ruined an iconic car…
On instagram when they rolled pics out literally 100% of the comments were negative…hopefully someone at BMW gets fired.. |

My commuter is a 430i. It's ready to be replaced.
I'm looking at Audis. Fuck that grille. |
