Rear lights are a mix of the current lights (striped) and the CS like design on the outer edge. Looks american. The side curve is going all the way through the lights.

Tycoon showed very clearly the door handles...which anyway, even if they were absent and replaced by a kind of button, would not be a decisive thing, would it?

Honestly, I'm asking for the technical goodies of the 7er since long time, but no real answer, only "DOS vs Windows" or "the S-Class will only have his image left", "the S-Class will look like a 19th Century car"...

Okay, it will have ConnectedDrive and 4 wheel-steering, an improved Infrared camera, lane-keep assyst and sign recognization. It of course will have the auto-brake and emergency-brakes of the S-Class... Improved suspensions naturally...

Hardly a revolution. Maybe they keep a big surprise left untill the last day?

You don't get it. It's the sum of it's parts that will make this car.
And please stop about the S class for once here. I know the MB fanboys are scared as hell, but talk about the S in the S class thread.

There we go: that's what's covering up the side mirrors. The blinker will be much the same as the Z4 now; inside the CS style side emblem.

That cool IAS 4wheel active steering, improved Night Vision, traffic sign and pedestrian recognition, 10.2 inch screen and HUD sound pretty Windows vs DOS against the current S. I'm sure when the facelifted S will be out it will have a lot of these as standard too and other cool stuff too. But right now the 7 will be the newest addition to this busy segment, so it's normal to have the upper hand.

Keep the details coming, smeekmans. Thanks for everything shared until now, the info is amazing.

It's not wise to spread such info publicly.
Pekka is much wiser in this respect.

I have already experienced BMW pressure once. So, I would take my advice very seriously.

But ... He is free to take chances as well. Good for BMW fans, getting the F01 info.

lol, come on. He is allowed to say whatever he wants about that car. If BMW is stupid enough to show the car off, this is what happens.
