Macrons Dealer?

I like everything except the grill. The owner should have 3D printed a smooth one.

That car looks absolutely horrible. Looks like the owner took some spray cans and painted the grill and bumper/intakes. The 7 already is a ugly car and this takes the ugliess to another level.

I can't get over the split headlights and the massive nostrils. Regular BMW style headlights and a more moderate grille would do wonders for it.

The front is too tall. Its height is about the same as the hull of the Titanic.

The FL doesn't seem to need many changes after all; this is the first 7-Series to outperform the untouchable S-Class in many years.

For example, in the US in 2024, the 7-Series outsold the S-Class and Audi A8 combined.

USA 2024
BMW 7-Series (10,714 units)
Mercedes-Benz S-Class (8,809 units)
Lexus LS (2,163 units)
Audi A8 (1,628 units)

In Europe, in the first half of 2025, there's also a clear advantage in favor of the 7-Series over the S-Class.
This is a milestone for BMW in this segment and shows that buyers really like it, and that's all that matters in the end.

Sales are slow and the UK dropped it, but Lexus insists the LS sedan isn't going anywhere globally.

Agreed - although I will also point out the 7-series total includes the electric variants. Even with the EQS added in the 7-series is king, but it's worth noting. It really does drive wonderfully. My grandmother has had an i7 for quite some time now and enjoys it. That cashmere interior has seen better days though. That poor car.

Can you please hide this from @leylandi? It's heart attack inducing for my homeboy.

BMW somehow tends transform the 7er with the facelift from time to time. Most noticeable of course are the E65 and G11.
The current one only really needs a new front. The headlights are fine with me, but the rest is a disaster. The grille is almost as ugly as the new 5er's and the rest of the front looks like they just stopped designing it half way through....

Can't personally fault the rest. Its sheer size and presence is perfect and makes the S class look like an E class.

To me this 7er looks like an entire segment above the S-Class. The interior looks and quality appears to be a full step ahead of the MB too.

The W223 exterior still looks amazing (one of the few models in MB’s line up looking this good), but BMW has moved the game up with the G70.

I'm curious about the G70 LCI, as the G70 has the best silhouette of all the today's BMW sedans. The LCI of iX with M-sport and 23" inch wheels made it from ugly to actually be a really good looking car.

I wouldn’t say a really good looking car since it’s still hideous for most people but the LCI definitely made it more attractive. I always liked the iX, it looked so futuristic in real life.

As an i5 owner, we are extremely offended by these statements !!!
Joking aside, we love our i5, and my mom definitely loves the design of it. I think the frozen paint helps the body lines to pop more as well.
As for the i7, I believe the front end only looks nice with the chrome grille and crystal lights, but with blacked out face it looks awful.

Haha sorry about that. Personal preferences and all...Glad to read you guys enjoy it!

Yeah and without the M pack for a way more cohesive finished look.

Mercedes fanboys won't be thrilled with this news. They thought the 7 Series was hideous and the S-Class was a great-looking car. However, the 7 Series is the choice for those who want to look different in every way. BMW hit the nail on the head with the G70. I expect sales to increase even further with the facelift.

Biggest issue for me is that there’s no sunroof in Europe.
