I had a non-governed 1997 BMW 725i when I lived in Germany. Only a V6 but one of the most fun cars ever.
ОтветитьMercedes W140 s-class: 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
ОтветитьIt does not have a v12
ОтветитьBMW❤❤❤
Ответитьhm
Ответитьe38 740i v8 4.5l absolute dream
ОтветитьThe long wheel version looks wayyyyy better
ОтветитьI remember my 2 years with a 96 E38 long wheelbase, nothing I had driven up til then had made me feel connected to the road like that car. You cannot really put it into words either... you have to Drive one to fully understand.
That "Impala Brown" paint color is so cool.. like the shade of a freshly minted penny.
😁👏Wow! I agree with everything just said about this lovely creation by BMW.
.....My first one was the 1995 E38 model. It was beautiful, very athletic, strong, and very quick and fast. Never had any problems with it.
.......In 2001, BMW released the new body style - The 2002 model BMW 7-series, but it didn't drive quite like the E38 models. It was also ugly for my now higher taste for a BMW. So I happily traded my 1995 BMW E38 model for one of the last three 2001 BMW E38 740i M-Sports Package, with a $10,000:00 discount. I have never regretted every dime, time, and energy behind the wheels of this superb BMW car.
......This car single-handedly caused the competing Mercedes S-Class to suffer very badly in sales during that period.
.....The 2001 BMW 740i M-Sports became the king of all top mass production V8s for over a decade and to a large extent, still a top notch luxury sports car today.
.....The BMW E38 styling and sportiness became the benchmark that most high-end car makers still continue to copy or replicate even in 2024.
......At gas stations, gyms, service shops, kids schools, etc, this car is respectfully complimented by all and sundry. They usually ask me - how much would you want to let this car go?
.....Thanks to BMW for all the joy, peace, and prestige that this car has brought to humanity.🙏🏽👏❤🥂💐😁
This car is gangster.
ОтветитьNever really explained why it is your favorite, mostly just talking about ashtrays and foot rests..
ОтветитьTheres also 728, 735 is other countries so not quite base with the 740
ОтветитьI nearly bought one of these back in the day. The thing is I am English. So much as I liked it, I also like the Jaguar XJ84.0 which is what I eventually bought. This is one of Dougs ealier video's when he did pick on strange things like how dated the (at the time in period) tech was. He also complains about English not being indicated by a U. As an English person who speaks English, I find E to denote English to be what I expected. The BMS at this time were very good. Two years ago I bought an E39 5 series with low miles. It is lovely to drive.
ОтветитьThe 2007 looks better
Ответитьmercedes w220 had front and rear parking sensors in 1998.
ОтветитьIt's the best car that time 👍
ОтветитьSO GOOD I HAVE TWO.
ОтветитьGive me the car for a week and 20k. I’ll make it look next level
ОтветитьThis is the most humble "THIIIS" I have ever heard on this channel
ОтветитьAs someone who owned the e39 540i m sport 6spd, I'm jealous. There is a beautiful one for sale near me and I'm itching for it...
ОтветитьBack from when BMW was a desirable brand not an embarrassement
ОтветитьNot as cool as the L7
ОтветитьCan't believe I missed this 😫
ОтветитьE was for Español in the language settings 🧍🏽♂️
ОтветитьI’ll always prefer the older bimmers. Even my E70 x5. I’ve driven two brand new BMWs recently (a 2 series coupe and a brand new X5), and the older vehicle just handles so much better. The new ones are so numb
ОтветитьBack when you didnt need a subscription fee for tge features thag your car came with
ОтветитьOne of the first cars I drove! 740iL all white, I will have one someday!
ОтветитьNow it wasn’t the best luxury sedan … the s600 would destroy this car . It’s not even comparable to a 2000 ls400 . I had one brand new and if this was the greatest bmw then that explains why bmw sucks
ОтветитьI watched this review first 2 years ago and I didn't pay much attention at the time, less than an year ago I bought a E38 740i with the V8 engine and as an owner I can now state that this was the absolute dumbest opening and closing of the boot I've ever seen :D
1. You can just click the boot button with your thumb when the car is unlocked, you don't need to put the key in. You can also press the 3rd button on the car remote to open it.
2. To close it, you just put it down and just press it gently from the top and the soft close engages immediately
Whats the need to have a v12 engine just to produce 300 and sth hosepower?
ОтветитьI bet this towels haven't been wet since 2006😅
Ответить2000’s BMW and Mercedes are just beautiful just wow
ОтветитьI just won the auction for the 740iL on Cars and Bids! So excited to have it delivered.
ОтветитьDid these owners even fit 4 sets of golf bags?
ОтветитьTry the sport mode
ОтветитьMy Belgium 1994 E38 740i already has distance control sensors ❤
ОтветитьI love this Year of the 7 Series
Ответить"With technology this car gave you everything you needed but it wasn't an excessive overkill of Technology" which is what you see with today's modern cars. In other words. "BLING!" The truth is, cars have still not seen a noticeable increase with MPG since the 1990's. Fuel Injection. 1990's. Anti-lock brakes. 1990's. Air bags. 1990's. OBD II diagnostics. 1990's. Useless flat screens that are an eyesore right on top of the dash (no option to fold them away either) that make you take your eyes off of the road to use to turn on the air conditioner. 2020's. Brilliant! But MPG still the same. (I don't consider going from 20 MPG to 21 MPG worth noting).
ОтветитьOlder videos are simply better and more enjoyable to watch. Not so repetetive.
ОтветитьI don't understand why he always can't show us the road while driving. At least split the screen 50/50 with half being your driving view and the other half talking
ОтветитьAnd it's a good looking car. Surprised that I even like the color. It's different. Maybe squeeze a few more HP out of that V12? Glad to see you mentioned the DSP regarding the stereo. For 2001 a digital signal processor was very cutting edge.
ОтветитьDoug thats one of my favourite cars but i like more the 740i i respect you doug. REMEMBER ME
ОтветитьCompletely agree! These were/are gorgeous sedans. And I too actually prefer the shorter wheelbase model, but all are lovely. Once in a blue moon I still see one of these on the road, and even now the sleek, simple design is SO much nicer than the bland, generic-ness of the modern BMWs.
ОтветитьI totally agree. I used to drive one to London from the Midlands in the UK every week and it was amazing
ОтветитьWhat the hell Doug?
You don't need the key to open the trunk from the outside, just press the key hole/button and the trunk pops open. No need to insert the key, unless its locked.
There is center console storage. A drawer slides out from the door you can clearly see under the armrest, facing towards the ash tray. (He sat in the car, didn't he think the lid must be there to cover something? Didn't he try opening it? Mind... blown.)
E38 is two better than E36 ;) ;)
