To my eyes, the S-Class is starting to look like an enlarged, expensive E-Class (or C-Class for that matter!). Sometimes I just don't understand these types of reviews.

None of these are "bespoke saloons." The chowderhead who wrote that doesn't know what bespoke means. The closest you can get is BMW Individual. Otherwise, you're ordering from a standard set of options. Nothing bespoke about these.

My 7er rocks. Zero complaints. Ok, maybe one or two. But still...

Exactly. I've only had my new (G12) 750i for a few days, and am already SOOO in love with this car, it's crazy. It's like they solved EVERY problem I had with my last F02 7 Series -- seriously, ALL of the quibbles I had have been nipped and tucked. It's a spectacular car from my perspective (and I can be very picky haha!)

I own XJL and 740i, XJL looks nicer, but 7's quality is much better.
