  • It’s big, it’s bold, it’s a boss: it’s the BMW 750 iL! Two tonnes of pure luxury, this V12 luxury machine is where the business really gets done.
    But obviously just one isn’t nearly enough - if you happen to be heading to New York Fashion Week, or to your first day at an unspecified spy agency, there’s options just for you!

      its not that they cant design like thy did. but modern regulations prohibits classic design. everything has to be safe wich compromises the design

      @@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. With an electric drivetrain, the engine will be so small and low, there's no point in making a blob shape when you could have a frooth that's sleek, low and easy to access, maybe even with a clamshell. A Tesla Model S has quite thin looking A- and C-pillars and a low bonnet line, while being one of the safest cars on the road. There will be some compromises, but in a heavy luxury car like this and with continuously improving material properties, they shouldn't be so noticeable. Build a 2 tonne EV using the production techniques of the i3, but with the new current-excited motors and better batteries, style it like a modern E38, and you might end up with an actual Tesla killer. Too bad it'll be too expensive so there's no business case for it... though the Porsche Taycan (arguably a modern 1967 4-door 911) is selling quite well, so that might change.

      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

    I had a 5.4 shadowline black 750IL back in about 2006 and it always used to get a lot of love. The saddest thing was having the instant fuel economy guage right infront of the driver's line of sight, which rarely went above 20mpg. On accelleration it was frequently below 5mpg.... I didn't have the fax machine but I did have a 'FAX' modem connection point in the rear. It was a wonderful car to drive and my only regret was not being able to sit in the back!
