It's not easy to know how well different cars have been maintained, or diy modified. The 3.5 looked the most disappointing, neither the speed nor mpg. I have the 2.8 and it's interesting to see the others off the mark.. still seems a good choice tbf.
@ jana Typical, agressive comment of s.o. not owning an E38. I stay with my 750iL @ Meteor 540i is another car. And pretending the V8 is smoothier than the V12 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@andoE34 oh, so do you own an e38 and if so, is a 1997 740i with fsh and 210k kms, all services done at bmw and owned by one old man from new, a good purchase not from europe btw but the price is 129k rand and thats about 6000 euros also wdym by that this 740 is faster than the m62 model?
@@meepmeep2588 I don't have the E38 anymore, but I know that the m60 740i auto makes 7.4s to 100km/h and the m62 7s stock, and in this video is about 7s, could be chipped.
The first one seems to be the most fun to drive
Indeed, got a 728, even if it's only 193hp it's not bad at all considering the overall weight. Also, the sound of the I6 is... 🥰 pure bliss...

Valve timing is most likely adjusted bad on 30 and 35 from this video
U missed most popular engine 4.4 V8 M62!!
N62 haf less power but with more reliability
@@xXxkolinklthat couldn't be more false. I've had three 740s, a 4.0, 4.4 and 4.8. The 4.0 was so brittle
why was it brittle?
The Garage Is Mine WTF ? Excellent Brother
Это не машина а истребитель. 7 серия лучше из лучших.
v12 m73b54 its 5.4l not 5.3
V12 my love
All are magnificent engines. Do however the rather hoarse V8s fit under such luxury bonnets ? IMHO the silkier 6 and 12 are the best choices.
mad because you dont own one?
Triangle means traction control partially disabled , also you would like as minimum weight as possible when doing these tests
@@jana.3649 mad because dumbasses buying them for cheap and treating them like junk
The 540i is by far the smoothest. Know what you're talking about first

740i is tuned, stock rev limit is at 6200rpm.
No its an m60 one thats why, its rev limit is like 6500 or 6600
@@meepmeep2588 You're right, it's 6500 but still this 740i is faster than the m62 variant.
