7 series BMW's before 2009 have been beat with the ugly stick and I would stay away from that car. I love V12's but only with forced induction. The old MB V12's before 2003 were highly complex, very expensive to maintain and had nothing to show in terms of performance. Same with the BMW engines.

Ah yes, the "Rolls Royce" V12. I have driven one at a BMW dealer and overall very good except the engine kind of shivered at red lights. Is that normal???? I am telling you I would really want a V8 750LI from 2006-2008 (same with 760) with all options. They are in a very good price range but the problem is they do not have any options. For example one with Night Vision is extremely hard to find or rear seating package.
