Is it just me.... (last generation BMW 7 Series is a timeless design)
...or is the last generation BMW 7 Series a timeless design??? I have a few neighbors that own a 740iL and every time they drive by, the car doesnt look like a car designed so long ago.
Classic!

My father has a '98 740iL (everything loaded except xenons and navigation), and like Stage and the others have said, this ultimate driving machine is one of the most sought-after, timeless designs in the auto market. It's the definition of a luxury flagship sedan with all the creatures and comforts one would expect from it. I had the luxury of driving it on several occasions, and every time I get behind the wheel, it's like I gotta take this wherever I go because it's just that damn good of a vehicle
Here's a pic of my father's 740iL. Even with everything stock, it still looks awesome for a 7-yr old vehicle

Yeah those are nice cars, I actually thought of getting one before I got the GS. The sad thing is, as frumpy as the new 7 looks, its just that "new" kinda makes the older model look aged.
