I always liked the other 7 Series, and at first I didn't like it with this facelift, although it's beginning to grow on me, and I don't mind it so much anymore.

It's still ugly, but not as ugly without the droopy eyed headlights. It needs some more improvment. All of the BMWs need design improvement now. It's amazing how BMWs went from some of the sleekest and most beautiful luxury cars to being one of the ugliest.

Little off topic here. But does the new 7 series have a good stock sound system. I hear alot about the other features, but i dont really hear anything about the sound. Does anybody know if it has a good sound system?

BMW's 7-series is widely criticized as having an ugly design. Some people like it, but most don't.

it has great settings for the base etc. sound is great, i dont remember how many speakers there are but trust me - play banging music on it as i did and you'll hear that it is a great sound system.

(ps lexus has a better one though)

The sound system in the 7er's sucks. Logic and HK :(

The Mark Levinson in the LS430 is miles above ANY other 'premium' system from any car manufacturer at the time.

Hell, even my 10 year old LS400's Nakamichi blew any premium system (except the Mark Levinson's) out of the water.

Sad... But then again, only a fool buys a car just because of a 'sound system'. :)

It's growing on me but I'd still prefer the current 7 series over the 2006 version.

It's just so much nicer.. the tail lights are kick ass. They've made it too vw jetta/toyota-like with the new one. :(

I love BMWs (and I own one), but their stock sound systems suck some major balls given the amount of money you're spending. I haven't heard the stereo in the new 7, but while I imagine it is adequate I wouldn't expect it to blow you away.

What kind of BMW do you have? My daily is a MY2004 X5 4.4i.

I got the DSP 'premium' sound. It's a piece of crap. The highs are tinny and they whine at high volume, and the bass just comes out of two really crappy 6" subs in the cargo area. Not enough thought went into making the sound seem even half-assed. Looking forward to putting in possibly two 10's sometime, but I don't want to lose the already precious cargo space I have now.
