New Addition
Not really...but this past weekend my dealer offered us an extended test drive (4-days) on this beautiful 7er. My wife and I had a great time driving around the Cheasapeake Bay. It looks right at home, doesn't it

I've driven a 7 and feel like I'm driving a great big boat. Just not my type of car. But it certainly is one of the best of its kind. I just wish those kidney grills were a bit smaller.

If I grow up, the 7 is on my list of possibilities. But I'd prefer to relax in the back, plus I don't have my captain's license

I returned the 7er last night...
I was somewhat surprised by the beast and sort of miss it. Sure it's the size of a small barge, but the overall package was nicely executed. However, the M-Sport package w/20"s and optional Active Roll Stabilization (ARS) would be a must for me!

Nice enough vehicle, but definitely not something I'd invest $140kCAD in....then of course, there's the depreciation......
