I predict F02-mania in Middle East ... This will be a huge hit there:

This is in the BMW Welt. We have private viewing rooms where we showcase some unseen models. Ideally for dealers and distributors.

Incidentally if things turned out differently you could have seen an undisguised 7er earlier, The Cashmere Silver car in the official photographs was hidden in a secret room in which a film crew member left the door open , And some customers collecting their car entered the viewing room and decided to photograph the car. Luckily an assistant saw them do so and alerted security who alerted the Police and the Police made them delete the images from their camera.

The good thing about the BMW Welt is that is an ideal studio, so expect every forthcoming BMW model to be photographed within or outside the BMW Welt or even the BMW Museum.

IRL the car is very formidable. Sovereign, graceful, classy, elegant yet sporty, dynamic & utterly modern.

Tranquil balance. Jing-jangish. A bit of everything. Teasing & pleasing.

I've never seen a BMW with such a personality before. It has got grace & charisma. It just makes you to bow down. I have never experienced that by BMW. More to do with MB - I have such experiences with MB 770K (W150) & MB SE (W126).
Wow amazing words for a modern car..
To evoke same feelings as the 770K..

If you where a car journalist..they might have quouted you in a commercial..

Uh oh....just as I posted in the F01 vs W221 thread that the new 7 looks like a careful and bland makeover of the current car, a new live shot surfaces... There might be hope.

How the hey can you make someone delete images from their camera of an unreleased car when there was no warning or notification that there were to be no photography taken in that area, or a confidentiality agreement???

Re: Official: The New BMW 7 Series - 07-07-2008, 10:53 PM

ok, i'm warming up and like it a lot, but still want to know from those who know - - will there be a m kit with the sport package?

Scott, Eni?

The lower front fascia is the weak link and could easily be solved (as we've seen with chops) with an more agressive front spoiler.

Thanks
