Vehicle Detail

This true M Sport 740i offers an impressive combination of beautiful design, luxurious interior appointments, generous space, and excellent performance. The $3,100 M Sport Package really makes this car stand out. I have owned non-sport 7 Series, and they don’t measure up to this car’s sporty handling, power, and agility.This car is the last year of what is arguably the best designed 7 Series. The car has a classic look, yet it appears modern. The 4.4 litter V8 engine is smooth and quiet on the highway, but explodes when pressed in a linear and predictable surge of 324 lb. ft. of torque and 282 true German horsepower. The sweet growl from the tailpipe is exhilarating, yet the car returns 24 mpg on highway driving. Despite its full size, the car handles very nimbly, with an unbelievably tight turning radius of 38.1 ft. The suspension soaks up bumps and delivers sharp handling on demand. The interior is luxurious and roomy, with no expense spared in appointing this $72,000+ when-new-car. This car is made like a vault, and has one of the highest safety ratings. Comfort and Convenience: Excellent leather interior and real wood trim make the car feel and look luxuriousPower sport front seats – heated with power headrests and cushion extensionsUpgraded wide-screen navigation system with turn-by-turn instructionsGreat sound system – 12-speaker, 6-disc CD changer, and cassette playerLeather wrapped, sport, power tilt and telescoping steering wheel with audio and cruise controlsOne-touch panoramic moonroof Auto rain-sensing wipers Power folding exterior mirrors - passenger side adjusts automatically when parkingExtra clean large trunk with remote release and automatic closingKeyless entry system - remotely opens windows and moonroofIce-cold automatic dual climate controlCruise controlMultiple memory driver seat and steering column settingsPower rear sunshade Performance and Safety: $3,100 M Sport Package includes a blacked-out exterior "shadowline" trim, Vavona redwood interior trim, 18-way adjustable sport seats, a stiffer M inspired suspension, Steptronic Transmission with higher stall-speed torque converter, and a higher 3.15 final drive ratio (versus 2.92). 19” tires on OEM wheels from 2007 760il Sport Back tires are 275/40/19 Pirelli Rosso with 60%+ tread leftFront tires are 245/45/19 Pirelli Rosso with 90%+ tread left Steptronic transmission: Switch to true manual mode to awaken car’s sport personality.
