New 740i in our driveway

Got an insane deal on a 740i M Sport, so we took it. The black sapphire/black nappa/gray poplar sled now resides in our driveway next to our 2015 X5. It's been a good year!

Not the best pics, but here are some shots from the interior.








The instrument cluster in comfort mode


...and in sport mode.


The center console. All the bezels are machined aluminum.


The surround view allows you to move around the car virtually to see the surroundings. It's a bit odd looking in my garage.


The cavernous back seat. The picture doesn't do it justice. There's about a foot between your knees and the front seat.

VERY nice car -- and thanks for the excellent photos. You got an exceptional deal! My 750i will be delivered within the next week or so. Can't wait for it to arrive!

I also like the travel mugs / cups you're using in the front cupholders. What brand are those? They look cool.

I don't know where you might buy them here. Mine were acquired from the 724th Squadron of the RDAF. But the brand is called "Lifeventure."

Your dealer will probably laugh, but shoot for the moon.
