i personally own and drive a 2014 alpina b7 and love it, i love the fact that i can murder 5.0 mustangs and vettes. I was fortunate enough to have driven both the m760 and the new B7 i like the sharpness and speed of the alpina B7..
I would choose the B7 over the 760i(L). It is more of a performance machine AND it is a lot more exclusive without being ostentatious...only car aficionados know about the B7.
7 series is just to fucking show off your financial situation. And you ain't got V12 in that B7 to show off... Enjoy the peasant carriage B7, if you got the money for either of them my man. I don't.
Lol I'm actually watching this because I'm deciding between 2023 M760E and 2017 V12 M760LI. It was great that you mentioned it, every car guy should own a V12 at least once in their lifetime.
I'll have the 760. Because as you said, every car guy & gal must have a V12 at least once in their lives. And there's something surreal about commanding 12 Cylinders. I'd have the M760Li xDrive V12 Excellence Individual (damn it BMW, you've been hanging out with Samsung way too much). It'll be Estoril Blue Metallic (The SVR version, not BMW's) with a Caramel interior, Honey Walnut wood, blue stitches & belts, Chrome shadowline and a black Alcantara headliner. With the M suspension & rear bumper .... Because Individual lol. As always, excellent work!
Really glad I have seen that video. First "real" comparison between the 2 beasts. Facing that dilemma right now and I think I will go for the B7 (again). Petrol head says "V12" but all other senses scream B7 as their tuning is just incredible.
I enjoyed this review. I was faced with the same dilemma: B7 or V12? I chose with my heart (maybe not with my brain) and got the V12. The B7 is a sharper car at the limit, but I don't drive at 9/10th's all the time! I enjoy the effortless power that the V12 offers at 1500rpm. On the rare occasion that I want to stretch its legs and make the V12 sing - it obliges and begs for more! The B7 is a fantastic car, but as mentioned in the review: every petrol head should own a V12 at least once in their life, so why not make it a twin turbo V12. The M760 is just a bit more special than the B7 and the V12 suits the way these types of car are driven. I don't regret my choice - the V12 is what it is all about!
Big sedans ain't my thang... but that color is wunderbar. I saw a WRX vinyled or painted in a dark matte-metallic bronze and that color has haunted my dreams. If I was a person that actually washed my cars, rather than just watched AMMONYC, I might consider having a Lotus painted in that color with bronze wheels.
It's like what they use to say about the difference between a Rolls and a Bentley. Rolls Is the car to be driven in. Bentley is the car to drive. I would choose the 760i because no matter what you do, a car that big will never be a good sports car. If I wanted a real sports sedan I'd go with either a 5 series or a 6 series grand coupe. I can't really make a decision on these two. I like them both. I like the color of the 760 but I like the wheel and tire package on the B7. I think the fit in the wheel wells better. A 760 in that color with wheels the same size as the B7 might make me lean that way.
I'm buying and leaning towards the v12 I've had 2 before, the 750il and the 850 csi. I've had several BMW 6's also. I want an 8 but they have problems because of turbo placement
I'm going with the M760i. Wonder if I can grab one of these in a couple of years with less than 20k miles for a good discount. And yes, I love that color.
IM GONNA GO WITH THE B7. I HAVE A 2012 BLACK ON BLACK B7 AND LOVE IT. ABOUT TO TRADE IT IN FOR A NEW ONE. YOU CAN GET THE FROZEN COLORS IN THE B7 AS WELL. DISCLAIMER I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A M760 BUT I PREFER HOW THE B7 LOOKS. LOOKING TO GET A FROZEN BRILLIANT WHITE WITH THE FIONA RED INTERIOR
I personally think the M760i looks better. The wheels are just so cool looking and I personally just can't get excited about the Alpina's design traits. This is just my opinion but I also love the interior design options with the M760i & above all else: it's a V12.
A quick question, What do you do with the dog?? When your outside the car, he's there. When your inside the car, he's not there!!! Do you just leave him on the side of the road or do you leave him in the trunk? Love your videos!! Keep up the good work!!
Huh! I closed my eyes and listened to the manual position of that BMW and kinda heard the sound of a muted Ferrari? But then opened my peepers and saw a limo! Oh well...
Choosing between S65 and M760 is more or less impossible. It would have to be both or none. If I absolutely had to choose, it would be the 760, simply because it let's me control more of the driving. process and decision making. S65 is more of a nanny than the M760. I would much rarher prefer to be allowed to wreck my 12 cylinder if I so chose to do and don't want to hear any complaints from the car. Not an engine cut at max RPM or warnings or anything. It is my car. If I want to wreck it's engine I would choose the car that let me fulfill my dream of engine wrecking. Haha, that would be cool! Bought an M760i and just wrecked the engine outside the store and just chilled out and said "Yeah, I don't care. Just fix it for me with another engine, thank you". Also I don't like the autonomus thing very much so it would have to be the M760 for me. Individual style.
Alpina B7 is More Unique. BMW even told Alpina dont put all there bells and whistles inside the B7 so they dumb it down FACTS. BMW knows there Mseries division can not compete. BMW Use Alpina and Mercedes Use Brabus.
Yes MotoManTv, if you're a corrupt politician and you need to get away from protesters coming after your corrupt ass then yes, this is the car for you.
I don't get the comparison between the B7 and the 760Li. It's like comparing a Brabus vs an AMG. Alpina is a tuner (granted the only do BMW's). M is the performance branch of BMW themselves. Just like Brabus is an independent tuner and AMG is a branch within Mercedes.
You shouldn't put your words in Kumo's mouth! Kumo clearly clearly is the intelligent being doing this review! I mean frozen brown? More like frozen brown crap! The B7 is the driver's car! The idea of being driven around by another person? Get this "limo" version.
The s class cannot beat this in comparison in performance I went on the mercades site to check out the s65 it's not faster to 60 the b7 is faster then the s63 and s65 and the m760li
and if u want the 760il to be faster than the b7 it is only a question of how much money you will spend on tweaking and tuning ;) Because 800-900hp arnt that far away when u got a twin turbo
I'll sacrifice reasonable speed for price any day. I've seen Genesis that look way better than this with way more features for far less price and less maintenance costs and time with a better warranty. But the 2017 BMW Alpina B7 has a sexy interior color though ---> motormantv review watch?v=U7NCEBmdlI8

I love how chill Kumo is.
Bravehearted on camera maybe. He is a right diva all other times I hear.

Luckily, I do...and the B7 is the better car - by far...even though you think it to be a "peasant carriage". Typical comment from a jealous fool.
I hope this engine will be an option for coming 8 series. BMW, you have to do that.
Lol I'm actually watching this because I'm deciding between 2023 M760E and 2017 V12 M760LI. It was great that you mentioned it, every car guy should own a V12 at least once in their lifetime.
Forget the B7 !!! Give me the V12 baby!!! It's the best of all worlds!!!
I'll have the 760. Because as you said, every car guy & gal must have a V12 at least once in their lives. And there's something surreal about commanding 12 Cylinders.

As always, excellent work!
The V12 logo near the gear level is a great piece of design.
Really glad I have seen that video. First "real" comparison between the 2 beasts. Facing that dilemma right now and I think I will go for the B7 (again). Petrol head says "V12" but all other senses scream B7 as their tuning is just incredible.
Plus it's gorgeous!! Fit and finish is Superior!!

Can't wait for the S 63 review
(especially with the cashmere white color option)
I'm buying and leaning towards the v12 I've had 2 before, the 750il and the 850 csi. I've had several BMW 6's also. I want an 8 but they have problems because of turbo placement
I only like this car because it has a v12. Loooooooove v12s❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🦑❤️🦑
Getting kumo for a review....is a nice touch
I'm going with the M760i. Wonder if I can grab one of these in a couple of years with less than 20k miles for a good discount. And yes, I love that color.
IM GONNA GO WITH THE B7. I HAVE A 2012 BLACK ON BLACK B7 AND LOVE IT. ABOUT TO TRADE IT IN FOR A NEW ONE. YOU CAN GET THE FROZEN COLORS IN THE B7 AS WELL. DISCLAIMER I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A M760 BUT I PREFER HOW THE B7 LOOKS. LOOKING TO GET A FROZEN BRILLIANT WHITE WITH THE FIONA RED INTERIOR
But mr motoman, how can the rr ghost be based on this 7 chassis when this car came out 6 years later?
I'l take the B7
Is that the BMW map displayed at the same time as CarPlay on split screen ?
Just beautiful.
MotomanTV, any word on the 2018 Maxima? any minor changes that you know about? Thanks.
I personally think the M760i looks better. The wheels are just so cool looking and I personally just can't get excited about the Alpina's design traits. This is just my opinion but I also love the interior design options with the M760i & above all else: it's a V12.
I like he put the mat down for the dog because the road is probably hot. Lol
B7 I agree with Rusty - exclusive
Isn't the RR Ghost based on the older 7 series?
A quick question, What do you do with the dog?? When your outside the car, he's there. When your inside the car, he's not there!!! Do you just leave him on the side of the road or do you leave him in the trunk? Love your videos!! Keep up the good work!!
Shahab Besharatlou I'm pretty sure he's there with the camera crew
liked the video first ...will watch later
Huh! I closed my eyes and listened to the manual position of that BMW and kinda heard the sound of a muted Ferrari? But then opened my peepers and saw a limo! Oh well...
There is no place for turbo’s in the V because of the narrow V (60°)
I'm glad Kumo finally has something to get him off the tarmac ;)

Also I don't like the autonomus thing very much so it would have to be the M760 for me. Individual style.
What is the better engine in terms of longevity and maintenance cost between the B7 and M760?
Lloyd Derricoatte II definitely the b7
Baker Thank you.
I love it BUT it doesn't come in British racing green so I'll pass and go get a Porche instead! Thanks for the review.
There’s a hell of a lot of colours available in the Individual selection. I’ve ordered mine in San Merino Blue for instance.
I pick the B7. Nothing quite like the Alpina Blue, bruv.
Ifedapo Adeniyi Alpina blue is one of the best blues out there on a car.
I want the B7 with a V12.
Alpina B7 is More Unique. BMW even told Alpina dont put all there bells and whistles inside the B7 so they dumb it down FACTS. BMW knows there Mseries division can not compete. BMW Use Alpina and Mercedes Use Brabus.

B7 .. because Albina
ياليتها عنابي لماع ......Shine Maroon would be greater :)
B7. Sharper is sharper.
Jonathan Frye ehhh can someone explain what the b7 is?
sensible version of rob spaghetti
Love the colour and the trim, but that front is so boring now.
God this is drop dead Gorgeous!
Definitely B7 m. if I want to get a 12 Cylinder car, I’ll get a Lamborghini
Now if only this car can give 30 mpg.....
V12 all the way. No replacement for cylinders.
if this weighs 5200 lbs, what will a LS F weigh if it's made? 6000 lbs?! 😂😂😂
You shouldn't put your words in Kumo's mouth! Kumo clearly clearly is the intelligent being doing this review! I mean frozen brown? More like frozen brown crap! The B7 is the driver's car! The idea of being driven around by another person? Get this "limo" version.
I want to set monetary policies around the world.
I still don't get it! The color? Meh...Now the frozen blue or green? Yes! I'd still rather have the B7 over this Limo!
HEY! THE (760) IS THE BETTER LOOKING CAR!
The s class cannot beat this in comparison in performance I went on the mercades site to check out the s65 it's not faster to 60 the b7 is faster then the s63 and s65 and the m760li
its not suppossed to be the quickest car, its just bmw checking out if a rolls royce engine in a 7-series will sell :)
and if u want the 760il to be faster than the b7 it is only a question of how much money you will spend on tweaking and tuning ;) Because 800-900hp arnt that far away when u got a twin turbo
610 not 601 hp
tell us more about your pet, i guess people are no longer interested in cars:)
Beautiful car....my chariot when I unleash the apocalypse on mankind
Dont like the matt colour at all, looks unfinished and unrefined
please do an audi r8
I'll sacrifice reasonable speed for price any day. I've seen Genesis that look way better than this with way more features for far less price and less maintenance costs and time with a better warranty.
But the 2017 BMW Alpina B7 has a sexy interior color though ---> motormantv review watch?v=U7NCEBmdlI8
This is for car people the Rolls is for tinsel town folk with ego's to massage. I'll take this any day....
Sounds a like a bad coffee machine
of course m760 because B7 is too sport and too german
I would pick the Genesis G90 before this, even the interior is nicer. Reliability we don't discuss
What kind of dog is that? S
Looked like a samoyed to me.
