, September 2005, p. 136. “… this new 750i is better in every way than the car it replaces. That in and of itself should be enough to keep the BMW faithful happy, the competition worried, and us anxious for another comparo.”
September 2005, p. 122. “… this remains one of the best large sedans in which to hurry, as our 64.4-mph slalom attests…”
, July, 2005, p. 54-55. (Cover story: “The World’s Best Cars?” – 12-cylinder cars). “BMW 760i – Built to fly at warp speed.” “With perfect steering, superb suspension geometry, and impeccable damping in touch with your fingertips, white knuckles are never part of the deal.”
, May 2005, p. 58 (First Drive – 2006 7 Series) “… when it comes to driving pleasure in a sedan weighing more than two tons, the 7 Series is tops.”
“”… the 7 Series seems to have it all … power, luxury, handling, prestige and styling that nicely balances risk and cohesiveness.”
p. 94 (Living Large – comparison of 745Li with four other sedans – 745i ranked number one) “… the BMW proved the pick of the group, especially down any twisty road. I found its steering well nigh perfect in communicating road surface and grip. Its Active Roll Stabilization, brought off with real-time automatically adjustable anti-roll bars, gave the BMW the best combination of cornering poise and straight-line ride. Its engine was smooth and potent.”
“The BMW displayed the best handling and braking, in several cases by significant margins.”
p. 98 “…our overall winner is the BMW 745Li. In fact, the BMW garnered enough of a price-independent lead to retain top points even with factoring in price… ‘The BMW 745Li is the sports car of luxury sedans.’”

“The 750i’s utter calm under stress will send you deeper into a turn than you might otherwise go.”
“On city streets, the 750 is sure-footed and uneventful. Bumps are expelled and sent away like bothersome students, and the peace is disturbed only by sweet, welcome engine sounds. Freeway performance is impeccable.”

p. 104 “… the 7-series is extraordinarily rewarding to drive hard, belying its size with remarkable chassis composure and superb powertrain performance at all speeds, with a beautifully crafted, sybaritic cabin… I can’t imagine wanting much more in the way of a large sedan in terms of performance, luxury and prestige.”
