I thought so, but did a quick search on "i7", and it came up with nothing, so created a new thread.
Well, if moderators can delete this thread, or combine posts with main thread.

That red Maybach-like 7 Series looks nice!

I did notice BM sharing ICEV platforms to get EV's onto the market quickly, so there was no BMW codename for a dedicated EV platform like Benz' EVA platform.
So the iX shares the ICEV OKL RWD-based platform with the X5 too?

 

omg if someone gave me one of those i'd give it away.

it's a compassionate thing, it will be over quickly.

that's why you drive an s-class.

built in search doesn't do well with just 2 characters.

merged. thanks.

what's "OKL"?

 

No offense to CL, but the Search-functions in this forum are not the world's best.

 

S Class is actually pretty conservative when it comes to bling. No cut glass or fake diamond seat control buttons, but I've also mentioned that the ostentatiousness of the S Class does bother me. I like really high quality stuff, but flashy stuff doesn't appeal to me.

 

OK MM. I have to say, I’m not seeing the resemblance. That Torino is 2 doors

 

Yeah, I see no resemblance, other than them both being cars. None of the lines or shape are even remotely the same.

 

Yes, I know one cannot directly compare 2 and 4 doors (coupe and sedan)....although there were also plenty of 4-door Torino sedans. That wasn't the point. I was (mostly) comparing the grilles on the Torino and i7. If you still don't see any resemblance, then, well...........I respect your views.

 

Ah. The grilles, I can now see what you mean.

 

i'm with ya there. i like the LC in that way too, high quality, but not showy. drop dead sexy shape though.

but yes, an s-class is VERY conservative compared to something like a bentley. and i definitely don't like the kiriko glass deal on that 23K LS package.

 

These days the S-class is the subtle one......

 

The only subtle flagship sedan currently sold is the Quattroporte, and I don't think it even counts since it's ten years old.

 

port holes and jail bars grille are not subtle.

 

Yeah the LC is just my tastes for aesthetic! The LS always was too.

Pretty funny isn't it?

I wouldn't call that subtle, its just from another era today.

I would say the A8/S8 is subtle. I also think the W223 S Class is subtle

 

Must be... nice to be able to say so. A family I know has two of these but their other car costs more than the two combined. Lol

 

Interesting...Buick dropping portholes, and Maserati and Infiniti adopting them.
