I sure can build a pricey one.

Also, the 2016 3 series/M3 is live outside of the beta site.

The exterior color palett is on life support. The interior choices are amazing!

Slow news day? It has been online for quite a while with all the typical and frustrating BMW build configurator glitches. Seriously, I don't know why BMW can't have a simple build configurator like other companies! Try building an X5 on there for example. Changes your colors, lines, etc. without any warnings.

I think Canada's new config system is now easier to work with albeit their painfully slow transition to this new platform...
however the 7 is not yet available on their site.

I tried the one on the Canada site. While better, it is SO SLOW! Sigh. Does not seem to have any glitches. The US site gives the impression that BMW themselves are confused what options are offered with what lines, etc.

i saw this car on the nj turnpike on sunday... not too sure what to think of it.. the new "angel eyes" are no longer eyes ... that alone is hard to swallow. Its a smaller looking car imo too. i have pics but dont have them hosted online.

had the camo on the bottom portion of the car and over the decals

I like everything about the car except the connected headlights thing. They should really get rid of that altogether. Just looks weird especially on a car this big.

It's tough to justify ordering a new 7 over a Tesla Model S...
