Not a huge fan of the wheels, but holy sexy batman. That generation is by far the best looking 7 series imo.

it came with the wheels. Not my favorite, but brand new pirelles on them. Figured she'll bounce it off enough curbs.... she can ride like that. You should see the room in the back seat.
She is a nanny so she has to shuffle a bunch of kids around every day. It was taking a toll on the Wagonner, so as a beater, can't beat it

That's baller man.. nice ride. The current 7 series looks like crap when compared with timeless classics such as these.

The car definitely needs a good polishing and run down.. I don't see any sparkle in the paint. And remove that dorky looking Bimmer plate from up front.

The answer is obvious man:
Looks and style - E38 7-series
Lower cost of maintenance - 1/1.5 gen (UCF10/20) LS400

Actually, I'd prefer an E39 5-series as a DD since the 7 and LS are a bit too large IMO..

Yea front plate goes next with a headlamp upgrade. I'm thinking about the rear trunk lip spoiler and maybe....maybe the top rear window shade not sure. Dont want to over do it. Smoked the lights, did an induction service, major service, and performance software upgrade. Will probably do the Cold Air Intake and exhaust soon. Want to drop it about an 1 inch too. Air bag kit? It is supose to be the wifes car so I can't do too much.
I am an Alumapro dealer and they just came out with an awesome box the BP series so I'll add that.

I love the 7s, but they eat way too much gasolina.

That's awesome! +1 to all the "that's the best 7 series body style" comments.
