My 2001 740IL had vibrating seats :) Rare option.........look into it

Best sedan ever..... BTW - the GPS works fine. I've used it to travel from Iowa to NC and it works great. They haven't added many major highways in the US since 2000...

I had a 2001 740i in silver with the sport package. It never saw rain or snow, I sold it in 2012 with 36,000KM on the odometer. I fell in love with it the moment I saw it in the movie The Game with Michael Douglas. Selling it, needless to say, has been one of the greatest regrets of my life. This body (E38) is truly the last stunning 7 series by BMW (I never bought another) I also had a 1985 (E28) 735i and a 84 730i in 5 speed manual (another stunning 7 series). I had to sell them all when I had to move overseas. But of all, I miss the 2001 740i the most.

Briefly owned a 740i shorty, at the time I was more into E39s so I opted to sell it and get another 540i. Still have 2 E39s that I daily, but I miss the 740i so badly.

I have a 1999 BMW 740i M Sport and I love it. Mine is Titanium Silver Metallic with black interior. My dad owned a 1997 740i years ago that was beige on beige. Obviously that one was pre-facelift and predated the sport package but was atill a nice car to drive. The sport pack really does wonders for the car though making it a lot more athletic.

Always liked these ever since I saw it in that James Bond movie remote controlled :)

This car is as beautiful as I would expect from the Griot family. What an awesome car

I own one: 740i Sport, also a 2000. Magnificent, thank you.. you’re absolutely right. 👌🏻I’ve owned BMWs for decades: this is the best one. (Orient blue and black, special order.)

I purchased a 02 750 in the rear of a used cars lot in TX, it had been sitting 7 yrs,as a non runner,Silver/Black leather super clean,after a fuel pump,water pump,rad,Liquid Molly oil treatment,I just had to save it,Thus car has been sitting most of its life,I can’t ever picture me selling it!!Iv owned several 3- series,but nothing like this 750,crome package interior,cell phone,I looks good sitting in my driveway just sitting Steal !!V-12 Baby,Gangster life!!not many 750s made it to America 🇨🇱

As an original owner of a 2001 740i M Sport ( doing a rear suspension refresh among other things)... and having seen Doug Demoro's 740I M Sport video, I know and enjoy the value of this outstanding touring sedan!..

I own a 1999 740i that’s still in immaculate condition and I don’t think I will ever sell it. I’ll sell one of my kids before I get rid of my shorty 7.😅

The 740i E38 was available in Europe with a 6 speed manual trans in the pre-facelift model 1994-1998.

Inquiring minds want to know: were the Griot kids allowed to eat snacks on the ride to and from school??

2001 740il titansilber 107052 m runs great i will keep it no matter the cost.

LOL. I have the same exact mode. A 99 Short Sport in Cosmos Schwartz Metallic. The first year of the sport. Bought it in 2020 and have loved it every sense. I've owned 7 bmw's and the E38 is by far the best one.

So glad you’re taking care of my baby and showing her off! Thanks guys.

Even the 728i is a great car

Beautiful machine nothing wrong I have one

I have owned an e38 728i sport here in the UK for the last 20 years and cannot sell it also. I have also bought a short wheel base 750i facelift, one of only 113 made in RHD but it needs some work to get it running. These cars seem to get under your skin…😊

I had the same exact model years ago and sadly sold it due to circumstances at the moment. One of my biggest regrets!!

One of my biggest regrets ever to this day was selling my 2001 bmw 750il V12 back in 2012 😭

What a car!!! I adore this car!

I regret selling my 740il. Of all the vehicles ive owned, there are only 2 that i regret.

😁👏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.🙏🏽👏❤🥂💐😁

did your Dad own a 735i E23. They are really cool. But this E38 is a beauty too.

I have a 1998 triple black 740i (shorty forty) & I love it 😍

I like this car very cool

My dad took me to and from school in his 98 7er as well before he sold it : WBAGF82050DK80979 Then i bought bought my own 98 7er as well about 8 years after he sold his: WBAGF82070DK83415 (Mum had a red 740i as well) (idk her vin) But now I regret selling mine cause ive never seen it again and here in New Zealand they usually just end up in a junkyard.. Its cool my family wasnt the only ones who loved this car as well

Suuuch a beauty

Love my 01 740i Sport (shorty) blk with tan interior.

Great video. Could y’all find an AUDI S8 from 1998-1999?

I❤E38

I love E38 sooo much I now own two of them. lol Great vid I'm not selling mine either.

My 99 740 looks very similar. Mines Cosmos Black with black guts. M-Pars from the factory, xenons, nav, dsp & heated + Massaging seats! Mine being a none sport, it does have the chrome exterior package. Being a black car, the chrome really works, I'm my opinion. It's a car I'll never sell. These are alot rarer in the UK.

❤

I ❤ the 7er E38 I ❤ the 5er E39 I ❤️ the 3er E46 The best Ultimate sedans of all time in history of Cars

The crown vic is like 15" longer

I have the exact same car 2001

I can't believe someone screwed the leather knee bolster on the driver's side 3:51. Yeah, I caught that and I hope you guys have fixed it by now

I have me one! Shorty 40!!!! Midnight Blue! (E38) 2001 the last production year!!

I have one now i just purchased in March of 23. Kicking my ass timing chain guides went. Nobody wants to do the job here in Atlanta. Anyway I'll eventually find someone but i need that steering wheel in my life 🥰 How can I find it

Found a blk 2001 w/200,000 asking $3k After this vid I think I’m gonna entertain it

Benimde var e38 725 . Satamıyorum 😢 Farklı araba kullanmak istiyorum ama bunu satmak istemediğimden olmuyor.

I regret selling my 99 740i m sport

i own a 1999 728i wont sell it nothing i can replace it with ,

These guys are amateurs lol. the rim center cap roundels are not lined up with the ///M logos and the valve stems.

With all respect your intro music is too loud compared to your voices

OLD BMW's ARE SO COOL but they are cheap and nobody wants to buy them lol

My 740iL Individual - Silverstone - is far more special and better looking than this basic "shorty sporty" 😂😂. hands down.
