1995 BMW 7 Series

Pros: Supreme driving experience in a high quality automobile.

Cons: High ownership costs, not that roomy for such a large car.

The Bottom Line: A wonderful driving experience in a serious high quality car. As a used car, they represent a true bargain. Its fun living on the crumbs of the rich!

Review: Used high-end BMWs are a fantastic bargain. There are lots of very clean, low mileage examples around and being sold for the price of a Volkswagon! Why so cheap? The people who buy 740s don't buy used cars - there is no market for them. But for those in...

Pros: Great power, Very comfortable seating, Fantastic handling, Overall great ride!

Cons: Upkeep is expensive.

The Bottom Line: This is a great option for a used car, but do your homework and have the car checked out to see what has been fixed and what could be coming.

Review: I recently got the itch to buy a nice luxury car, but didn't have $40K to spend. I started researching BMW's and found numerous owner web site to help answer my questions and narrow down the list. I finally test drove a 1994 5 series and while the drive ...

Pros: Power, Interior

Cons: Cost of repairs

Review: I have been able to drive and ride in my mom's 1995 740iL frequently. This is a wonderful car. The interior is absolutely huge. I can sit in the back seat and put my arms and my legs out, and not even come close to touching the seat in front of me....

Pros: Total Luxury

Cons: Eats gas and big

Review: I have owned a 3, a5,and now a proud owner of a 740il. I'm one of those people who buy cars 2 yrs old. This way you get what you want without the big depreciation curve.
Well if you want luxury the 740 is the car. The ride is smooth like butter. It...

Pros: Can find a great price, looks much newer, all it's supposed to be.

Cons: Cost of maintenance, repairs.

The Bottom Line: Buying a used luxury car is a bargain, it's still fun, and the BMW 7 series is worth serious consideration.

Review: I decided I would never buy a new car again and watch ten of thousands disappear in depreciation. Took a chance on buying this newer body style '95 740i for the price of $15k. There are a lot of them on the market now, and the body style is somewhat...

Pros: powerful engine, luxurious interior, beautifully designed body

Cons: lots of mechanical and electronic problems, some 1995 models have a defective engine block!

The Bottom Line: Superb luxurious car that drives very nicely but has many problems. If you can find one that has a new block, i highly recommend this car!

Review: I am the second owner of this car and since I've owned it (5 months), I've had mixed emotions about the car. While the car drives superbly, there is a very high cost of maintaining the car and in general, there are too many gizmos which can go wrong in...
