I remember seeing 7-series protection cars on ebay several years back (before the new body style)
does bmw still make the protection series cars -- and does anyone know what they cost in US Dollars?
thanks!

Here is the link Charley!
There are seven protection classes: B1-B7. B7 is the highest, what even resists an AK47 and explosions. Those B7 cars are the ones politicians use. A fully loaded B7 7series is about 500,000 USD.

I remember reading about a Range rover that was fully protected, and can resist two simultaneous grenade explosions underneath it!

Too bad you have to "qualify" to get one of the B7 cars ![Wink](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/wink.gif)
Would have been very helpful if I ever chose to become a drug lord(?).
