I really love the BMW 7-series, for its luxurious cabin and its surprising agility. It will remind you of speed limits, but wouldn’t dare suggest you obey them. And when you reach your destination, it will park for you or just act as spotter if you prefer to do it yourself. It will even stomp on the brakes if you don’t see an obstacle and get too close. The iDrive system controls infotainment with gesture control; there’s wireless charging for smartphones. The 320-hp 3.0-liter turbo inline-six is adequate. The new BMW 7-series is not just a car. It’s a concierge, a four-wheeled passepartout. A high-end stereo system, which in this case is a Bowers & Wilkins with 1400 watts and 16 speakers that include Kevlar midranges and “diamond tweeters with Nautilus technology. BMW chief designer Karim Habib says modern luxury means “offering the customer what they want before they know they want it.”
