An very appealing youngtimer with appreciation potential

The BMW plant in Dingolfing produced almost 330,000 examples of the third generation of the 7-series E38 up to 2001. The no-frills design was considered a trendsetter in the automotive luxury class and is still pleasing to look at today. A considerable range of prestigious six-cylinder, slightly modified eight-cylinder and twelve-cylinder engines from the previous E32 model were available for the powertrain. The impressive numbers also made the E38 series a commercial success for BMW. In the public eye, the 7 Series set itself apart as a Hollywood star in the several feature films, such as the James Bond flick “Die Hard.” But in addition to this film career, the E38 also became an impressive trendsetter in the global automotive industry from a technical standpoint. It was the first production model to be ordered with a fully integrated GPS navigation system under the name “Carin” from Philips and an on-board telephone. Electronic damper control with a particularly gentle suspension mode provided even greater ride comfort. The extensive equipment variants and accessory features made of fine materials support the image of a luxury class legend.
