Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Hard to pick which are my favorite features but I do truly love the voice activation features and the BlueTooth technology phone.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
The one feature I had on my 2001 BMW 740IL that I miss is the power retractable mirrors. It was nice when parking in tight spaces to fold them in and allow more room between vehicles. I'd also enhance the voice activation features to allow more direct access to functions.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
After 2-1/2 months of ownership I find the 2006 BMW 750Li a dream to drive. I don't understand what all the fuss is about the I-Drive. It's very easy to learn and once you do it's very convenient to use. I also think the interior room, especially for back seat passengers, blows away the competition.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
12 cylinder engine
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
add more sensors to front end to avoid damage from high parking curbs. I have broken front spoiler twice.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
The car is a most responsive machine. It is comfortable yet able to handle the road very well at any speed. Cornering feels as if the tires have glue on them. In all a fun car to drive.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Performance and handling. Once I've gotten use to the styling, I actually like it better than the previous models.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Same as everyone else -- get rid of the tiny shifter and put in a stick like the 740's. The I command is improved and once you learn how these cars function, isn't all that bad. It will take a lot of time to learn, though.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
The 750 is a very much improved vehicle as compared to the 2002 745Li I owned. The performance and handling is superior and the car just feels better built. I was surprised at the difference in the two models. Feels more like the old 740iL.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Bluetooth, Keyless, strong engine. Must order with luxury seat package, you will love its massage action, Logic 7.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Keyless does not turn off Radio/NAV when engine turns off. IDrive.. complicated. Voice command is not friendly, I changed to hand control. Air of Rear A/C not blow directly to people. Side & rear window sunshade with separate controls.Transmission control is weird & small. Cheap walnut trim in 750I.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
Just less than 700 miles but I like this car, both a luxury & sport vehicle. It's worth your money. But, iDrive BMW still have a lot of functions you never need. Dealer must warn customer for Auto Park feature before leaving dealer lot.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Comfort Access, Satellite Radio, Seat Air-Conditioners and Seat Massage. Soft Close Doors w/Trunk is very helpful for my wife
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Engine makes some rumbling noises. Mirrors need to be automatic w/retractible button as my 01 did. More capabability w/Bluetooth would be nice. Great automobile overall
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
I bought this car with a huge decision on whether a Maserati Q, Lexus LS 430, Mercedes S Class or an Audi A8L. I am certainly glad I bought the BMW. The drive is second to none the toys are amazing and I learn something new everyday. This is my second 7 Series BMW. I loved my first and love this one even that much more. Satellite Radio is a must w/Premium Sound.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
The bluetooth phone system, the sound system is great, and the comfort and luxury of the car is great too. the exterior look of the car is totally unique and really pretty.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
Navigation takes too long to input, gotta go to a touch screen. I have a lexus, and I had an Acura TL its so much nicer and user friendly to touch the screen. Comfort access should be a standard feature not an option.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
This is my 2nd review of the car after having it 5 months now, its been in the shop to completely replace the ingnition system, because the car stalled in the middle of me driving twice. Very dangerous. I love the car, way too much technology, something is bound to go wrong sooner or later with everything in the car being electronic or computerized. BMW needs to get back to basics and just make a nice car without all the tech. Read my last review, and most of it still holds true.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 BMW 7-Series?
My favorite part about this car is how responsive it is to my driving. The Steptronic manual gear shifting is awesome. I'm really having fun with this car.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 BMW 7-Series?
The gear shift is too closely located to the window wiper controls on the steering wheel. Sometimes I mistake one for the other.
2006 BMW 7-Series Review:
I picked up my 750i 2 weeks ago. The handling and performance is beyond belief. I considered the Mercedes CLS-500 but the CLS cannot hold a candle to the 7-series BMW. The interior is roomy and comfortable. My kids love it. I love the new styling especially the back of the car. The iDrive is straight-forward to control. (I don't know what all the fuss is about with regard to the iDrive.) I ordered my black 750i with natural brown leather which looks and feels great. I had the premium sound, luxury seating, and satellite radio options. My only regret is that I wished that I went with the 19-inch wheels. This car blows away anything comparable on the market.
