- For the first time in the 6-year history of our show, we are proud to present a BMW! And not just any BMW - the all-new BMW 7 Series (a/k/a 7er G12). In this very in depth PREVIEW, MotoMan goes on a deep dive of the advanced tech features of the new BMW 740i and Bimmer 750i that set it apart through technology -in design, driver interaction with the car and one of the most innovative bits - the unique method and materials used in its construction. More than our usual PREVEW in advance of coming full episodes, there was just way too much in the new 7 series from Bavarian Motor Works to demonstrate in one full FIRST DRIVE REVIEW . . .

That is called an overview. Beautifully shot and well presented. You never stopped talking for those 12 some minutes and whatever you spoke added to the understanding of the car. Kudos to a job done fantastically!
wow at first I was like same old same old
but then I saw this beauty
and now I'm speechless
it's so innovative, full of tech
gotta say I love the sclass too
Audi is too little feels boring
who here agrees that this car has a perfect balance of pure quality and sport???!
I can never get tired of watching this man. he's so likeable, smart and funny.
Great to see a BMW featured here, looking forward to more of those.
The new 7-series seems a stunning piece of design and technology.
Finally, a BMW by MotoMan!
this show keeps getting better and better every time
I love the key system its very high tech I love that it parks its self inside the garage without you being in it
If I'm driving, the M Sport. If I'm being driven, the Individual. Speaking of which, I like the little "7" logo the put on the rear seat headrest.
I have a BMW 2013 535i Individual. It was amazing to put together your "Individual" and see it for the first time! The 2016 7 series looks amazing! I encourage the choice of the Individual Composition. It will not disappoint.
Best reviewer ever! Keep up the excellent work.
Outstanding video. Professionally done. Very informative. Please keep up the great work! Thank you!
10 to 15 years from now. We will see most if not all of this Tech in regular Kia cars. My 750li from 2007 had all the tech that my 2018 Kia has now .
BMW is not only "not new" to HUD, they made it popular and have always had the best in the business
can you please compare to S class too..just want to know your views on both. thanks
+lexusfan100 In these first two episodes, we focus squarely on this new 7 Series . . . The coming FIRST DRIVE REVIEW we actually drive the car on the track at Monticello Motor Club. We'll look to get the car in LA for public roads and comparisons . . .
+MotoManTV i love the way you do reviews man. it's nice to see someone who really appreciates the micro details in the design, i love to look at cars in such way. keep at it, great job!
To each their own, it's about preference. Mercedes is geared towards luxury & to be seen, BMW is more subtle & geared towards performance, yet both can be pretty costly. Personally, i like the Beamer.
Love your reviews. You have a touch of class in how you present things. Keep it up!
love that review I bet that no one can review better than him superb keep it up motoman
Birds will still shit on it like it's a 1990 Ford Fiesta.
Lmao thank you made me smile
+tjpld That's like seeing a hot and sexy lady and saying, "she still has to poop." I like that analogy.
true dat
best, and most interesting reviews on the internet, keep up the great work:D
It wouldn't matter which one I had..that thing is a beast!
I love these tech reviews. keep it up
I've gotta admit that key is sweet! Although, I hate to think what a new one costs if it gets lost!
I know you didn't ask, but S Klasse all day. Also I'm very excited you're covering this car because it's my mom's dream car
impressed by your knowledge, thanks.
Luxury Technology Comfort Understatement. This is the car a rich person would drive himself.
That key owns, that alone slaps the competition in the face.
Let me be one of the first commenters to welcome BMW to the MotoManTV show! Welcome, you gonna love it here . . . :)
Well, I'm speechless M! I don't know what to say... Been anxiously looking forward to an episode with a BMW for years & what car better to day view BMW on the show than this Masterpiece !
Who would've thought we'd have Carbon Fiber structural components in a mass production car so soon? CF is still expensive to manufacture & still by all means an exotic material... BMW is on the right track with the Carbon Core philosophy.
Exterior Design wise,
I think this is one of the most beautiful modern BMWs ever made... I'm not saying its perfect, there's few things I'd change, but otherwise everything is tip top ... I give it a solid 92/100 in my book.
What do you think of the design now you finally saw it in person?
Interior Design wise,
I was hoping for it to start a new era in BMW's interior design language & breakaway from their current mold ... Sorta like the Bangle7 E65, it was a complete departure from the E38. The G11 interior design is an evolution of the F01 interior ...
I'm not saying I don't like it or I'm disappointed, on the contrary... I think my expectations were a bit different though. Anyway, I like the interior & in the post W222-era they did everything by the book, what looks like xx is actually xx & feels like it.
I LOVE the SkyLounge (the best execution of a headliner since Rolls' StarLight) ... Alongside the ambient lighting & Doorframe-mounted LEDs ... With the right lighting setup, it will be frickin incredible during the night .... Just wow!
Okay configuration time!
I'll have an RWD 750Li Individual Manufaktur (sits above the "regular" Individual) & it will be spec'd as follow:
- Porsche's Platinum Silver (or BMW's Moonstone Metallic) for an exterior color with the new Individual wheels.
- Merino Leather in Platinum or Champion with a black Alcantara headliner & The Yachtline veneer from the 760Li Yachtline concept. (The Black Braided Leather trim is tempting though) ... The veneers are carryover from F01, I wish they would've introduced more stuff ... Other from the usual Walnut, Poplar, Piano & Silver Aluminum.
- SkyLounge & the highest B&W speakers option
- The M-Sport's upgraded suspension.
- The Rear Fridge ... Because, why not?
Two options I won't have are:
- ExecutiveLounge, I don't need executive rear seats, I'll drive my self thank you very much.
- The Rear Screens, No Netflix For You (Insert Soup Nazi photo here)
As for the why? Because I'm broken like that lol . . . ;)
As always, another excellent episode M!
I love the individual he is the gentlman on the road amazing video i enjoy it👍😊🌻
I've always loved the M-Sport Series but never liked that it was only available as a manual. That does not seem to be the case now. Where I live and traffic is every heavy and most times bumper to bumper, a manual transmissioned vehicle is trying on the nerves. So the M-Sport (Individual model) would be my first choice followed by 750 AWD and then the 740 AWD. With Individual model, I definitely would load it up with all kinds of beautiful features. Go hard or go home.
The straight pipes guys made a great point. A samsung tablet in back but still no android auto?
Awesome review, flawless!
Me and my GF did the Hoffmeister Kink this morning. It was great....
The S class looks better but the technology on this things is incredible. This is an iPhone while the s-class is a flip phone.
lol
I say
s class iPhone
7 series Samsung Galaxy
+Jeremiah Anthony then what's a8? btw S Class and iphone was spot on! i agree with that and 7 series with samsung galaxy is perfect for each other lol
1990Thunderbolt A8? I dont know, volkswagen phone for the price of an iphone?
thoravian dude the iphone is the mercedes.
I like both so I may probably buy both. But does it still comes with the V12 engine
great review fantastic presentation
Nice video... I prefer individual or the normal BMW 7, and btw this is one of my very favourite cars...
excellent review
Regarding your question, I would take the BMW Individual version. Mainly because I couldn't live without that stunning exterior color, almandine brown metallic. Besides that…well, full merino leather interior of course, and basically all other options as well. Because if you buy such a car, why miss out on anything it can offer?
Good job on the presentation of the new 7series. I was shocked and pissed that the US government hasn't allowed for the garage parking and laser lightening in this car. These are just a few of the features which I want. I currently drive a 2014 5 series diesel which I love, and now it looks as if, I'll have to wait to get the features I desire in a new 7 series. RETVET
LOVE IT ! KEEP IT UP
I would get the individual model the color combination and the kinda dull chrome touches make it a special car like when they introduced the Steinway and son 7 series in 2010 and 11
dude, the current 3 series also connects the lights to the kidney grill as well.
Great video.
I guess I'd choose the individual model. For driving dynamics I'd keep a smaller car.
Which options?
Fully loaded, plus I'd commission an aftermarket builder to plant an MB 3 pointed star on it, just to keep onlookers baffled ;)
Did they put a golf club on every new car this year?
I would get absolutely every option available.... It's called Fully Loaded... So of course I'm getting the Individual model... Why would I get every option? Well, if you're in the market to purchase a car of this caliber..... It dosent really matter how much it is... Right? And why get everything? Cause you can!! Nothing worst than thinking down the road "Oh man I should have gotten this feature too"....
+Erwin Delarmente I agree, I would want fully loaded also. I have to wait a year or so but I am driving this monster!!!
+Terrence Bolden she's a beauty for sure!
+Erwin Delarmente me too I would love to be fully loaded with options
Will we see more BMW's in the channel? how about the M235i? would love to see your opinion on that.
While we are talking about technical review here. How does BMW tackle the different thermal expansion coefficients of High Strength Steel, Aluminum and the Carbon Core? Say in Australia temperature ranges from -5 to 47 celsius, so the differences is 50 degree ish over a year. Clues?
The key is a nice feature, I could go in the meeting while my car park outside with direct sunlight and I don't have to worry about the cabin temp when my meeting is done 'cos I could turn on the ac 15 mins before my meeting finished lol
Great video! How much weight did BMW save? I am sure this weight saving tech will eventually trickle down to the smaller series.
+skrads The total weight savings from the last gen car was 290 pounds. Full FIRST DRIVE REVIEW on the track episode coming up today . . .
+MotoManTV thank you ! Your reviews are very professional, entertaining and detailed! I wish all car reviews were so well planned.
I'd buy the 740i Msport since its rwd and lighter, with the autobahn package, display key, carbon black exterior, cognac nappa leather and the 19" rims for a better ride and less unsprung weight. and id get the bower and wilkins sound system for when iim driving around town. Love the 7 series, I've owned a German spec 750i and it was wonderful to drive.
I love how Americans need to highlight, that the scoop is functional and not fake. :-D This not a Camaro guys, but a proper muscle, BMWs and Mercs aka THE CARS.
You watch your God damn mouth
Bmw and benz make great luxury cars
But when it comes to straight muscle and ass kicking SUV/trucks
American all the way.
America is the king of muscle
I don't want to see you post something like that ever again
Frank Assnot SUV and trucks OK, there is nothing like a one from the US. But when look at saloons, then look at all 65 AMG Mercs, BMW M6s, 760s, M5s, V12 and V10 diesel Audis, some Jags and the new Alfa QV will probably rock as well.
+Frank Assnot Americas cars are pure shite. The cars from Europe are so much better such as Bugatti veryon, Ferrari fxx k and the la Ferrari, the McLaren p1, koenigsegg and many more. I struggle to think of 2 good American cars. So yeah shut the fuck up and look at the European cars.
No they're all shit there co2 emmision are crazy through the roof aswell. All Americans do is add more horsepower and hope for the best.
Now you are just trolling. Get a life.
I really wish came in additional colors such as red and blue, at least for the M optioned versions.
You got my sub for mentioning star trek
Is there a Alpina B7 available in US for future?
Hey mr motoman. No offense or anything but i could have really used you and bmw a while ago when i was in the market for an e92 m3 haha. Im not sure if you remember or not but i asked a while ago why you haven't done any bmws and you said I'm not sure why but its an issue that should be resolved soon. I CANT BELIEVE I MISSED IT!!!!!! I didn't even think about the launch of the 7 series and it was right in front of my face
If I was buying the BMW 7 series I'd go with the basic model and some options on top. I don't think the people targeted by the individual package will be looking at BMWs in the first place.
this guy really is kool and knows his poop ... kudos ! actually signing up to his videos !
Can you buy the rear seat entertainment without the tablet and with an iDrive controller
intrigued to know how 7 stacks up to jag xj and S class. I've watched reviews of earlier generations and it seemed to lag.
you just answered my curiosity all this time...why no BMW?
+fauzi hassan All a function of timely access to cars.
i got mine on order in black with 20inch OZ
Carbon black metallic with the M-sport, dynamic handling, and the executive package... but for 6K more, I could get a fully loaded M5 with carbon ceramic brakes, which is what I would really do...
What I will be doing is the new 340i xDrive with the M package and premium enhanced package, primarily because BMW stills gives us manual transmissions in their saloons and as far as I know, nobody else does!
Going for individual. Send it to TAC in Texas(armory). Suite the individual series as a long range touring sedan for my parents. Let them buy their own fun little vehicle hahaha - they have to let me use it when I visit the states.
BMW fans rejoyce, finally we made it
I would go with the individual
I would get the Individual. At that price point, there should be no problem spending that extra to have a bespoke car, at a much cheaper price than a Royce. That being said, Porsche cars are pretty much BTO too although the individual options are much great in the 7 series.
OHH MY GODDESSS!!!!!
In answer to your question: I would go for the Individualized BMW.
Because, if I were to (be able to) pay that much money, I would want it *exactly* the way I want it.
And that would mean: Full Option (most likely). BTW: living in the EU grants access to the full potential of BMW technology: no need to wait until regulations catch up, especially on the new additional safety features.
You threw in at the end that the m-sport version has a better suspension than the non m-sport but I don’t believe that is accurate at all. As far as I’ve read, it gets you some “m”s with different wheels and black where the chrome ought to go.
Whats The deal with heat and cool at The same time?
When the review going to get aired
+Reese Maxx It was live just days after this . . . th-cam.com/video/bM1_FnGa8Vw/w-d-xo.html
I'll get the Individual cuz It looks more expensive and you can get the same adaptive suspension like the one on the M sport...at least in Europe.
No more v12 with the 760Li?
i wouldt have an black dark expresso machine as an option for the good grip
Great car
Why is the U.S. so slow on approving the new features?
amazing
Of course is 7-series individual, it's because it looks more classic and luxuriant.
Does that mean there is a SIM card in that key and the car also has one inside?
I want a low tech version. So a base model would work fine. And I would just baby the car.
Awesome car!!!!i love bmw
My first time here. Was that John Turturro?
Appreciate BMW for showing off the naked chassis details. The 7 series, MB's S Class, Audi A8 and othersin the segment are big vehicles; weighing less by the minute... Are there manufactures over doing the "tech" aspect somewhat. Its most of the high brow tech lost on Mrs. Winestein? Nice cars and if you must; Make my BMW 7 in Stone Grey metallic (LY7U Porsche) with black leather everywhere. PS., the Audi S8 is long in the tooth . . . .
I love BMW cars
Will this car come in a short and long wheelbase in the U.S.
Only long wheelbase for the US market.
Ok. Thanks for the response, it is well appreciated
I thought he was going to specify the differences between the 740 & 750 (other than engine)...if there are any....., But I guess its just a general description of the new 7 series.
Just bought a 2018 M760il pretty much based on your excellent reviews. Can you come over to the UK and host UK Top Gear please man :) We lost Clarkson and I think you would be a great host.
Stupid US regulations. All the cool features had been taken out of this car because of it
Exactly.
exactly that's why I want to move to another country I want to see lazar beam headlights but no because of these stupid ass government regulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder why the US gov does that huh ? Somehow I think it has something to do with $$$
@F30 lover yeah its on the higher level
What do you think of BMW reliability in the USA. My understanding is they intentionally replace parts that should be metal with plastic causing severe problems from 50k miles on. I'm looking at either a 2016 Honda Accord or a 2010 BMW 328i but I don't want a money pit either.
entertainment package
I would love to have the Bmw 750i but the 740i is looking more beautiful in the outside and inside plus the rims look better but tbh I would like to have any Bmw but I can afore it 😿
I would choose the individual model
Individual is a bit too bling for me, I'd get the MSport. But that's just me.
The key is great but your phone can do all that too..... Wouldn't be easier to use an app for it
That would make it easier to hack.
Bmw!!!
Is there a box to tick to delete all the gaudy chrome?
I think so.
hm well u made my comment irrelevant... I was posting how ppl call the chrome tacky n gaudy when it's on an American car but it's classy on german... guess u proved me wrong
yes, shadowline trim.
Good luck with the hi tech car key remote.
you should employ sound man its
The rumours say that there is a Bmw 9-series comming. It competes with it's own rolls royce family.
The 9 series is cancelled. Sorry. Was hoping for something impressive from BMW again.
