@@lexburen5932 there are solutions to that, like the Jaguar XK's pop-up bonnet to keep a low profile but also protect pedestrians from hitting the engine in the event of a crash.

My uncle owns a successful restaurant, he bought an E38 when it was new and used to drove me and brother around every-time we visit his restaurant. And yes, he still has it till this day and turn it into a weekend car haha. Its the only reason why I’m into BMWs today haha
Du bist nicht aus aachen oder? Der Besitzer eines griechischen Restaurants hier fährt einen Mega geilen E 38 schon seit dem ich Kind war. Bin jetzt 35. grüsse
I owned one. For many years then all the plastics started to disintegrate including wiring. You’ll need new wheel wells and wiring harness minimum. Dump it before it’s too late.
This is one of the best ever built, I had the pleasure of driving one is quite remarkable car. The Karl Lagerfeld and James Bond was a very nice touch especially when you showed how they have done in the movie.
When it was launched way back in 1994 alot of motoring journalists at that time critized bmw for it looking to similar to e32. But after all this time it's design has really stood the test of time. Amazing car. Still have so much fond memories and respect for my former E38 728i. Till this day I cherish the time with it
Had a black 735il in 2010. It was always my dream car because I saw it as a kid in that bond movie. Unfortunately the transmission broke and there were a lot of other problems too. I had to sell it but I’m still in love with this 7 series
I have always owned BMW coupes till now but when I see these 7 series, they still look incredible till now. Their design game was really next level at the time 👌👌
What a collection! The Lagerfeld is so, so special. Side note, Bond didn't use a Nokia, he had a proprietary (and sadly fictional) Ericsson model JB988.
Being part of the classic museum, its obvious that these cars are well looked after and their materials treated frequently hence the plastics are all fine.
Seriously, if BMW made cars (and videos) like this now, standard will be fine, I'd buy one. I love BMWs of this era. Brilliant video. Brilliant cars. The ultimate driving machines.
I love the humour you both have especially in the back of the BMW 7 series just listening to your humour made me subscribe to your channel, very good script and funny keep it up.
At the beginning I thought - next boring channel about cars, but I like 750Li so started watching. At the end I think - wow, that was a greate episode ;)
All very beautiful. I don't think I could ever let go of my 740il. That maroon is a gorgeous color. That two two is sweet. I wouldn't mind that paint job.
I had one of this shape, back in the day. A 730i, it was seriously underpowered ! Currently I have a 2022 740d, which actually makes more power than the 750iL in the video. It goes like hell ! Superb Car.
I had a e38 730d individual, such a chill car to drive. I am a guy that like fast cars and always had fast cars, this was one of the forst slower cars I had but I didnt care one bit, it was fast enough and you drove it with no worry on your mind when you are in it. Than I am not even started about the timeless design and how good the quality was.
Legendary piece of German engineering! V12 and rear wheel drive, with nothing but the best of Bavarian luxury, this is a dream car for sure! It's also the car that 2Pac was shot on. Rest in peace for the legend, but like this E38, legends never die.
What even is this channel!! It's blowing my mind. I own a classic 90's BMW that turns heads everywhere I go. Some say it ugly, other say its a masterpiece! But everywhere I go it turns heads with its shoe like appearance and bright red color! :-)
I have a Mora violet e38 750i. Wonderful car but is currently in the garage getting new hydraulic shock absorber put in. They are very hard to come by nowadays
My dad had this as a 740i with the 4.4 liter naturally aspirated V8 and 286bhp it was the same refurbished 7 series like this first 750iL it was the ultimate car we had… I loved it 😍😍😍
I am a big BMW fan, had a 5 -series for 13 years and it never failed me. But this video is ominous. We are looking at BMW as museum pieces, like it will be within 5 years. They better had working like crazy on their BEVs, otherwise they will have nothing left but a museum of ICE cars of yore.
The glorious E38! Thank you for sharing these.
are you going to retrofit rockets to your next e38?
Coooooming up
So cool!
I expected to see you here to be honest
Project Dubai FTW!!
BMWs back then were so perfectly designed. I wish they would take inspiration from that period for their new cars.
its not that they cant design like thy did. but modern regulations prohibits classic design. everything has to be safe wich compromises the design

e39 was designed by a japanese dude
They actually did with the G70, only uglier smh
@@lexburen5932 also countries like China and their taste influence a lot
Oh my. This was a special presentation. A normal 750iL, the Lagerfeld 750iL, *AND* the 007 750iL?! Amazing.
2:59
Ah, that famous German humour we've all heard so much about
🤔😳
i cried from laughing over your comment ofcourse
this is one of the most timeless cars ever built from bmw… please give the designers a big fat „schmatzer“♥️
I totally agree as I get the thumbs up from everybody who see's my year 2000 E38 in Biarritz Blue Metallic.
My uncle owns a successful restaurant, he bought an E38 when it was new and used to drove me and brother around every-time we visit his restaurant. And yes, he still has it till this day and turn it into a weekend car haha. Its the only reason why I’m into BMWs today haha

Ahhh der Lagerfeld L7 und der Bond 7er. Schön zu sehen, dass die beiden Autos noch existieren und es immernoch gut haben.
It’s been 20 years and the E38 is still the best looking design 7 series with the E32 . It will never change
I have a 740iL I am restoring, literally in pieces in my garage. A labor of love and not that difficult to wrench on.
E38 best 7-Series ever.
I owned one. For many years then all the plastics started to disintegrate including wiring. You’ll need new wheel wells and wiring harness minimum. Dump it before it’s too late.
Love the your humor, guys, is it safe to say that it is quite German? The Cleanex joke was as funny as it was unexpected!
This is the third comment in a week that I can't like.
Cuz it already has 69.
It's always exciting seeing E38's in such perfect condition, specially ones as unique as these.
This is one of the best ever built, I had the pleasure of driving one is quite remarkable car. The Karl Lagerfeld and James Bond was a very nice touch especially when you showed how they have done in the movie.
Why can’t Bmw design a 7 series as beautiful as the e38.
What a car.

Because good designers left BMW
As a BMW enthusiast and owner, this channel is so rewarding. Keep them coming 👍
The E38 750il is best BMW of all time. This video should have been 1 hr long
Seeing these old classic cars makes me wish BMW would do restomod cars. Fit modern things or engines but make them look old
Still the best 7 ever made. so glad i have one in my driveway.
Had a black 735il in 2010. It was always my dream car because I saw it as a kid in that bond movie. Unfortunately the transmission broke and there were a lot of other problems too. I had to sell it but I’m still in love with this 7 series
Most gangster car ever designed. I love it, thinking about buying one eventually. This body is timeless.. what a great piece of automotive history.
Bought one already?
Do you guys have a L7 too? Would be great to see more about one of them!
I have always owned BMW coupes till now but when I see these 7 series, they still look incredible till now. Their design game was really next level at the time 👌👌
So much better looking than the generations that followed. A true classic !
Ah, the beautiful E38! I believe, it was one of the most beautifully designed car of all time. Hope BMW brings back similar design again.
Well done guys.
The BMW 750iL is indeed the big boss!
Next you should do a video about the E32 750IL and the E38 L7.
What a collection! The Lagerfeld is so, so special.
Side note, Bond didn't use a Nokia, he had a proprietary (and sadly fictional) Ericsson model JB988.
Hahah funny guys! Well done!
I would love to spend some times in BMW vault to play with some of those timeless toys.. definitely cool !
It was Tomorrow Never Dies that made me love the E38! The luxury of a limo but the handling of a beast!
*Ultimate and most beautiful 7 Series of all times!😍😎👍*
The e38 is the type of car that never ages
Thank you so much BMW Classic!!! It's always a pleasure 😊
Great Episode ! Interesting, Fascinating, Amazing, Great humor andlast but not least, well presented. Thanks Christoph and Inside BMW Group Classic
Super video, danke für den Einblick… und das Ende ist große Klasse😆
I have yet to own an E38... Man, they are beautiful cars. Thanks for the video!
Love the rapport between you two, more than the cars. But I seriously wanted that Lagerfeld one back in the day.
When your 750iL has a TV in a back, a fax machine, a bar and a telephone, that's REAL FUCKING LUXURY.
Style 32 wheels are still amazing and seriously one of the best if not the best original BMW wheels
Being part of the classic museum, its obvious that these cars are well looked after and their materials treated frequently hence the plastics are all fine.
Seriously, if BMW made cars (and videos) like this now, standard will be fine, I'd buy one. I love BMWs of this era. Brilliant video. Brilliant cars. The ultimate driving machines.
Wow! You never see movie cars where everything actually "works", especially the stunt cars that can actually be driven like that!
What an amazing car, still in my top 3 and will probably never drop out.
I love the humour you both have especially in the back of the BMW 7 series just listening to your humour made me subscribe to your channel, very good script and funny keep it up.
One of the most beautiful sedan car ever made ! My favorite, to be honest :)
Wow that 2 tone 7 series is too nice, I can’t believe all the special options it has.
O jaaaa 🤩 Fury marzeń. Brak słów aby określić piękno tych aut. 👍👍👍
The E38 is peak. It's understated and classy.
This is absolutely insane! true genius BMW engineers and their passion! Long Live BMW
This generation is the best generation of the 7-Series BMW ever made, and thank you for such a rare masterpiece .
The e38 has always been my favorite 7 series model. Thanks for this video.
Wow, definitely one if the most enjoyable video's I have ever watched!
Finally a video from BMW classic that I have been waiting for. Thanks for the upload.
This car has a special place in my heart since I saw the Transporter when I was a teenager
The E38 - Best 7-series ever. Love it.
Great video, keep them coming but maybe up the length? 2 minutes and 12 seconds per car is not a lot.
At the beginning I thought - next boring channel about cars, but I like 750Li so started watching. At the end I think - wow, that was a greate episode ;)

Der Raketenwerfer hat mich gekillt. obwohl ich nach den Abschminkttüchern dachte, mehr geht nicht :D :D :D
Absolutely incredible, “sheer driving pleasure”
I love shit like this. I had a 540i e39 and it had the old car phone. I got it working and used it all the time. Felt so fucking cool lol
THE Best looking 7 Series Ever. Understatement and Elegance. ❤
i miss mine so much, i cant get over the loss
Just got my hands on a mint E38 740iL recently and it is one of the best BMW's I have owned. Truly a top 10 BMW model.
This video is a fascinating insight into German humour. Cool car too.
Wonderful video.
I really like the 2 Grey BMW.
🇩🇪🍀🏆🍀🏆🍀🏆🍀🇩🇪
Best BMW ever
It is possible to buy one of this cars?
your videos keep getting better. this one could have been longer too!

Tolle Autos!Der Lagerfeld Wagen ist sehr schön!Bitte ein Video vom BMW Turbo von 1972!!!Danke und Gruss von einem BMW Mitarbeiter aus Melbourne.
amazing cars and well presented
ماشاءالله مازال الموديل هذا موجود أرغب بشراء وكم المطلوب السعر بالدولار
I own an older one.. a E23 1985 735i and i love it!
should have more details in the title, the Lagerfield and Bond cars are pure gold
Legendary piece of German engineering! V12 and rear wheel drive, with nothing but the best of Bavarian luxury, this is a dream car for sure! It's also the car that 2Pac was shot on. Rest in peace for the legend, but like this E38, legends never die.
That bmw museum on my bucket list now! Wonder what other gems they have there? 😎
I have this car! Lovely to see some recognition of a classic!
I owned 01’ 750iL and it was gorgeous. A fine memory.
Where has this channel been all my life?!!! Awesome!
What even is this channel!! It's blowing my mind. I own a classic 90's BMW that turns heads everywhere I go. Some say it ugly, other say its a masterpiece! But everywhere I go it turns heads with its shoe like appearance and bright red color! :-)
Hello, Will the video of the 7 series with the S62 engine be released ?
Red-White BMW is marvelous!
The 750iL and the 850csi are the best BMW's
I have a Mora violet e38 750i. Wonderful car but is currently in the garage getting new hydraulic shock absorber put in. They are very hard to come by nowadays
Still love the e32 750il- The sound when the engine starts up is awesome...
My dad had this as a 740i with the 4.4 liter naturally aspirated V8 and 286bhp it was the same refurbished 7 series like this first 750iL it was the ultimate car we had… I loved it 😍😍😍
I really love the second car, you talked about
Why have I only just found this page? So glad I have now 🙌
Why can’t I find any for sale with all the options that the second one had?
"it's hard to impress us", but you made it. What a quality car maniac content!
please do the z8, that’s pretty much my ultimate dream car🥰🥰🥰
I love your videos. Please just make them longer and more in-depth
Did anyone else notice the dent next to the 750il logo😁
This design aged like a fine wine.
Today's designs will age like beer.
thank you for doing this BMW classic, make more, wish I had a V12 BMW 750
E23! E23! E23! Do a video on the original 7er.
Early 728 vs late turbo 745i, maybe a SA 745i for good measure.
2:59 German humor 💪🙏
Beautiful car. One of my favourite 7 series. ❤️
Best episode so far guys!
Timeless design 🙌🏼❤️🔥
