After watching the video I would like to officially change my opinion.

After watching the video, lm greatly dissapointed whit seats of the car. l was stunned in a moments how similar they are whit Audi A8 seats- that's just wrong.

BMW 7 had the best looking comfort seats, they were "Darth Wader" sirius, now they look like a stupid copy of Audi, so plain and cheap ...

Scott.... Are you involved with these press pictures? I want to believe that you are more involved with the pictures for brochures and the BMW website. Those tend to be the more dynamic and visually appealing pictures.

With that being said.... Why does BMW always release crappy press photos? The press photos tend to have the most unflattering colors and interior combinations. Example the interior in the video looks 100000xs better than the press photos.

I fear that the car will look very boring when the 8-Series is unveiled. Kind of how the X5 became less attractive when the more sexier X6 debuted.

^ hmm, but we must remember the 7er is in a very conservative category ...and next to its rivals it isn't so bland.
