Question about the oil changes, if the car has 28k on it, the oil been changed twice seems some BMW owners suggest changing the oil sooner rather then waiting for the car to tell them, what do you plan to do

 

Good question! I have had a few cars that 5k or even 7k was reccommended. I have always gone @ 3,500 miles between changes. All fluids and servie was performed just prior to me buying it. I will be speaking with my BMW servie guy about this.

 

big bad 7 series.

i like.

congrats.

 

btw, how is the ride?

speed?

pimp factor?

gas?

etc?

hahah

1-10 scale?

 

Congrats on the "quarter to 8."

 

Txstyle, you are BBQ'n the competition. The 7 looks hot Nice combo white/chrome. Reminds me of D2's 7.

 

Even with a body that's been around since what 2002? I am getting major attention from a range of age groups. Car is surprisingly quick, particularly say 60 on up. Gas appears to be what I expected and according to my readout @ 17.5 mpg.
I would go so far to say that in White the 7 has more presence than any other color except maybe Black. I am VERY impressed with the quietness and all the toys! Still figuring stuff out. I desperately need XM radio though.
And the LOGIC 7 Audio is jamming!

 

Lookin at some options on wheels....

# 1

# 2 http://superbuytires.com/E+Forged/EF+75/

# 3

Thoughts...?

 

#1 are the Laguna Seca's, got em on my Colorado 20X8.5, love em, nice wheels.

 

Second set (pictured) but I think you mean option #3, correct?

In any case I like the third option but I can see any of them looking nice on your ride.

 

Whatup Gene.

I havn't installed them yet (guess he shipped out quite a few last week!) or the HID fogs. One of my co-workers who has a Black 745iL installed his last night and he's having minor technical glitches: The eyes are "flickering" upon initial power up and the auto-level indicator (green light on the ****) is also blinking?
He is in contact with them now on a solution. However, I anticipate that the bimmer is so sensetive to any additional or reduced power load, that it's unhappy. This is why I preffer to not install untested electrical items on cars imparticular. BUT... it does look nice.

By the way... you should post up here: http://bimmerfest.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=126

 

#2 - too open
#3 - too hard to clean
so #1 gets my vote

 

Great minds truly think alike.

Although........ I absolutely am infatuated with these:



I need some insight on cleaning a combo brushed/chrome wheel? Seems not so simple.....

 

I will always love the Hartge Classics on the 7

 

#1's for sure. So i was thinking about getting a 750. We just picked up a 04 Range Rover and am thinking about garaging the gs400. I've always liked the big 7 series. Would you recommend it? How is it off the line? Do you know what 0-60 and/or 1/4 is? I still have this lead foot of mine which i dont think is going any time soon so I have to keep it happy.
