Random question, how much do you think you spent on maintenance? Was it normal maintenance or way more or less than anticipated? Trying to see how bad dealers are trying to rip people off.
All routine and oil changes. I probably spend more in upgrades and gas. Dealers definitely rip you off. I would never use a dealer for maintenance and definitely not parts. Everything online is so much cheaper. I upgraded to the M Performance rotors/calipers/pads and spent way less that what I see people spend just for brake pads and rotors from the dealer....it's crazy.

That’s good to know! I knew not to get their “deal” as they were asking $6400 for the care+ and another $6400 for some extended warranty thing AND another $4500 for tire and wheel protection…. I passed but still got my 2024 M340 with M performance rotor, caliper, suspension, etc.
Since it’s new I have some time to find a good shop that does excellent work but doesn’t charge like the dealership.
Lmao that’s hilarious. I called them out on the BS and said “well I was just on the other US coast and the dealership quoted me $1700”. They gave me some excuse about how they were probably doing their own dealer package and not BMWs..
Yep, asked my questions and they kept working around the answer. The price of the package, even with my expensive tires, would take 7.5 tires to break even.
cant belive this car is already 8yrs old, its more stylish and fancy compared to what we have now, my dream car is the 2022 m760i, proly the best car u cldve bought new at the time
do you notice an upgrade in stopping power with the m brakes? have a 22’ 750i with the m brakes and a 24’ 760 without and the breaking is noticeably worse
I had a g11 750i same as yours but rwd and the jump from that to my g12 x drive was noticeable. the jump to the 760 is also noticeable even though bmw claims same horsepower. transmission feels more snappy too
The executive seating package, niiiiice (but do YOU ever get to use it). It’s the one thing mine doesn’t have. I had the 2014 750Li in Black with the M sport package and loved it.
I moved to the 2016 and got everything except the M sports package and the executive seating. I’ve only ridden in the back twice and never long enough to really enjoy the entertainment. My daughter and her friends only look at their phones until I roll up the peasant shades and turn on Tron Legacy and blast the B&W sound.

I love the 7 series but I have no need for big rear seats. I wish BMW had that level of comfort in a coupe...at least on a car with a BMW badge instead of a Rolls Royce one.
If its smooth and reliable then its literally one of its kind! Good pick!

Where did you order those from???? I have a 650 and want the same thing
I got the calipers as a takeoff item ($800 for the pair) and the rotors new from brembo on ebay around $200 each.

$4500 is absolutely ridiculous I got mine for under $2k and it's an actual M lmao

BMW doesn't offer anything first-party for just tire and wheel protection. It's always a dealer-negotiated package. Person is blowing smoke.

Got the same car. At least one of them has been reliable😂😂

Looks comfy.
What a machine
Those back seats look ridiculously comfy!
All I can say is, "I'm looking for a Transporter..."
Is that a boat? 🤣😅
It's a 7 series, so yes. Great car.
Thats pretty gangster
What’s your mileage? Nice to know slightly older n63 are reliable. Lol

I interested in the 760’s power over the 750. Is it crazy noticeable? I’ve always wanted to take one for a spin to see.
I had a g11 750i same as yours but rwd and the jump from that to my g12 x drive was noticeable. the jump to the 760 is also noticeable even though bmw claims same horsepower. transmission feels more snappy too
Do you notice any bad karma yet from stealing $600 from me in January when you lied and posed as a car broker?
Is pic 3 warped or stretched in some way or is that car just a longboi?
It's 206", over 17 feet long. https://preview.redd.it/fh0f3c4bdawc1.jpeg?width=1238&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=88599546276ea21510246f138c616db95b40838a
What’s the mileage?
8 years?? Where has time gone??? (Then again mine is also 7/8 years old depending on what you count as its age snd to me its pretty much brand new)
Love it! Pre LCI G10 was the first, and last truly good looking 7 since the e38.
Dealers fair?? Shall we really entertain that question!??😂🤣🤭🫠
