any reason for saying that White?

I personally love the styling - i seen an orange M7 - and apart from Lambo, it was the only car Ive seen that suits orange - it looked fantastic - big deep front spoiler, not dissimilar to the CSL. 8)

Oh this is the same with the one that xists in the site that V12 posted. Anyway, I've never heard about n M7 and to be honest it had never crossed my mind that BMW was going to make it...Is it necessary? Does this kind of car need an M version? I think that 760 is enough..

I dont think its neccessary wither, but now that I see it, I want it to come out - it looks like BMW's should!
And I guess they have to keep up with the souped up versions of the A*, and S class.

yeah, i think the s class has an AMG version, but who cares. I don't think an M7 would be very logical. Who would buy it? It would cost somehting in the range of $150,000 or somehting. Doesn't the 760 have a price tag of $100,000+? I think the M5 is big enough. The 7 series was never made to go fast. It was built to be luxerious.

Mopar just for curiosity, how much does the M3(e46) cost in the US? In Hellas it costs 100k Euros.

It proabably will have a price tag of $150K+. But no matter what they have to have a performance 7 series - even if it only is to keep up with Merc.s and Audi.

I think the M3 is about $40,000. I think it might be a little less. The M5 is more around $75,000. So think of how much the M7 would be!
