So I go to the BMW Euler in landsthul Germany and I get the whole rundown of the New 7 series. Sat down in it... Touched it... I like some of the Luxurious features (or lazyman) like the auto trunk open and close. I disliked some of them as well. It feels really nice inside though. It is definitely made for the passenger. I did not get to ride in it yet but I have an appointment for a fault on my car tomorrow so I will let you know how the ride feels. I did like the cluster though... Completely digital minus a couple of silver semi-circles. It is a HUGE vehicle though.... Parking would be a beast!!!

I would also say so.

In old European cities both the 7-series and X5/6 are too large cars in practice.

Even the E60 is already on the limits.

I hope that the new F10 wont be any larger than the current E60.
My BMW history: '68 1800 4d (NK), '78 E12 518, '81 E12 520, '87 E30 316, '88 LCI E36 320iA, '90 K1 (MC), '95 E36 316i Compact, '97 LCI E36 320i, '99 E46 320Ci, '01 E46 325Ci, '01 LCI E39 525iA, '04 E60 525iA, '05 E60 525iA, '08 LCI E60 520dA and now a:

'10 (US '11) F10 520dA. Jet Black with Veneto Beige Interior, Black Trims and Black Floor Mats.
Extras: 8-speed Sport Automatic, Sport Steering Wheel, Xenons, HiFi Professional (16 Loudspeakers and 600 W Amp),
PDC, Extended AC Functions in Front, Fold Down Rear Seats and DEFA Heating System for the Engine and Cabin.
Summer Wheels: 20" Cross-Spoke 312 Wheels (Silver) with Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 245/35 Front and 285/30 Rear non-RF Tires.
Winter Wheels: 18” V-Spoke 328 Wheels with Michelin X-Ice non-RF Tires 245/45 Front and Rear.

Ordered in April 2010, Car out of the Factory in June and the Delivery was the 16th of July.

So here is the pic... I wanted to get more but I was in a rush, didn't get to drive it and it was cold... I took this when I picked up the 5er after they replaced the shifter/greased up the steering wheel (was making a deep hydraulic type noise).
