Styling is definitely very subjective. If the grilles were blacked out, it would be better. They just look a bit too much like a pair of giant beaver teeth to me.
A few years ago I felt like you, Eddie. However, now I have to give BMW some credit for spicing up their lineup. Previous (a few years ago) models all looked the same. Surprisingly Mercedes and Audi are still on that boring trend of small, medium, large.
Eddie spent the entire video trying to convince everyone that the i7 is ugly 😂. I think it’s just you and a bunch of teenagers, bud. It looks fine to me, almost like a Rolls Royce.
The front end looks menacing af. I especially love it with the chrome trim. The blacked out specs just look like a black hole with the rest of the bumper design. This gen is a budget rolls royce
Switched from s560 to I7 M60. Considered s580, but after comparing both in person decision was easy for me. Tech and ride is better in i7. If you like more conservative look and floatier ride then s580 is for you. Thought auto doors and gesture controls were gimmicky, but now use both 100% of time.
The new ghost has this wild planar suspension system which is next level. Felt unbelievably isolated and smooth. This was good, but rolls is still better.
Personally I feel like i7 drives more similar to the Spectre than the Ghost. The Ghost isn’t a driver’s car at all. The Spectre is more dialed in but it’s still more isolated than the i7 which can be surprisingly dynamic feeling in Sport mode.
Out of the last 20 videos: 17 have been gas/(1 hybrid), 1 has been some Temu nonsense, and 2 have been electric, including this one. That's 85% gas-oriented. Stop squawking.
No digital rear mirror #what? No range anxiety that's why I got rid of my EV. Unlike most EV owners I like to travel and that just isn't a reality in the real world.
It's not ugly. The layperson non car nerd normie has already spoken. This whole BMWs are now ugly is just a weird thing being perpetuated by certain car nerds and other people as part of a larger "everything new is ugly. Wouldn't it be nice to go back to so and so decade?" agenda that's floating around on the internet. And you know it's true because even when car designers design cars that overtly call back to a previous decade, car nerds still say "It's ugly" simply because it's a new thing.
I think that the biggest deal breaker of this car is how hideous it looks... I can't believe the majority have seemingly forgotten or have grown on to like the look of the disgusting piggy snort snout grill. Every part of the car looks really nice, and the interior is incredible, but I just can't get over how it looks. I wish they took a step back and went back to their old design language that I think 99.9% of people preferred
I actually think the i7 looks the part. It’s a bold design, which isn’t everyone’s thing, but it’s definitely not ugly like some say.
Eddie used to drive an Audi A8. Of course the 7 Series is ugly to him, he’s conservative.
@ yeah, I heard. Makes sense because Audi products are pretty understated. The attention the i7 received may have been unwanted for him.
@@jr1885 lol valid. I wouldn't say my Z06 spec is very conservative tho. You aren't wrong that the A8 does look quite like a giant A4.

With the smaller wheels this i7 M70 rides just as smooth as the all new generation series 2 Rolls Royce ! i7th Heaven...
This is my dream car right here!!! I love the design in my opinion and that technology, luxury, and ambient lighting is just so amazing
fully agree on the tech, luxury and interior lighting is properly epic
Every i7 video.
Reviewer: “Look it’s cloth on the seats.”
Me: sigh…it’s actually Cashmere which is wool.
To be fair. He corrected himself later in the video.

Swear. This beast looks incredible imo. Inside and out. It has so much presence on the road
This channel is starting to become one of my favs
appreciate it! Glad you are enjoying the videos
Yo Eddie this is by far one of the best reviews I’ve watched. Very informative and very well executed.
Good you enjoyed it!
I really like this car , look great 👍

She’s gorgeous.
Genius for BMW to have their electric cars look like their ICE cars.
People have choice. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

The i7 M70 with shadow line in dark colours looks awesome. I am a car person. The beaver joke is older than maple syrup. 😊
This generation of 7 Series is doing the most. See more of them in Sandton than the S-Class.
Great review - BMW luxury line depreciation screams preowned purchase! But a beautiful car.
The new 7 looks ok but the depreciation on this vehicle will be epic
The car is really nice but that fade is even better bro!
thanks!!
Tray tables?
Road name for turbulence is rattle!
Sat in one of these in Italy, the cloth seats are really nice, but I don’t think this car will age well
How did this compare to the ghost you reviewed? Is the ride quality comparable or is rolls still leagues ahead

i wish more vehicles had that theater screen like could you imagine that in an escalade
that would be pretty epic
Only with the flip down tv
When you compare it to another car you should put up a quick picture. Just an idea to improve the quality of your content!
How do people afford this?
It’s almost the same price as lucid Sapphire!
That thing is ILL
What’s with all the electric cars?
What do you mean?
@ more gas reviews please electric is boring. They all sound the same and go fast in a straight line
Out of the last 20 videos: 17 have been gas/(1 hybrid), 1 has been some Temu nonsense, and 2 have been electric, including this one.
That's 85% gas-oriented. Stop squawking.
@ how many electric in a row now?
@ just need a break from them that’s all. I’m entitled to my opinion, thank you. You mad cause Harris lost?
They’ll sell about 5.
$196K? WOW!!!!
Yeah this one is LOADED
No one pays sticker for the i7, even the greediest BMW dealer in this world will discount the car by a few grand right off the bat.
Last 2 gen of 7’s have been aggressively fugly
No digital rear mirror #what? No range anxiety that's why I got rid of my EV. Unlike most EV owners I like to travel and that just isn't a reality in the real world.
A very plain looking $200k

It’s a beautiful machine inside and out. This guy opinions are worthless!! So quit it

Everyone involved in the exterior design of this monstrosity should be fired.
car goes well with your wife. doesn't fit you tho
