My Ride: 2008 528i, Space Grey, Nav, PDC, Premium, Sports, Grey Leather, Xenon, Cornering...
So I go to the BMW Euler in landsthul Germany and I get the whole rundown of the New 7 series. Sat down in it... Touched it... I like some of the Luxurious features (or lazyman) like the auto trunk open and close. I disliked some of them as well. It feels really nice inside though. It is definitely made for the passenger. I did not get to ride in it yet but I have an appointment for a fault on my car tomorrow so I will let you know how the ride feels. I did like the cluster though... Completely digital minus a couple of silver semi-circles. It is a HUGE vehicle though.... Parking would be a beast!!!

In old European cities both the 7-series and X5/6 are too large cars in practice.
Even the E60 is already on the limits.
I hope that the new F10 wont be any larger than the current E60.

So here is the pic... I wanted to get more but I was in a rush, didn't get to drive it and it was cold... I took this when I picked up the 5er after they replaced the shifter/greased up the steering wheel (was making a deep hydraulic type noise).
