In an offer that screams ‘mafia boss on a budget,’ a 2007 BMW 750 Li (E66) has hit the market in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, for a jaw-dropping price of INR 7.10 lakh. This chariot of choice for aspiring dons comes with a single hand history, ensuring all its functionalities are intact, along with a 3rd party insurance and a HR-NOC available for the new godfather in town.
The car, registered under DL3, boasts a 4,799 cc, V8, N62B48 petrol engine. With 362 horsepower under its hood and a torque of 490 Nm, this old-school powerhouse can sprint from 0-100 kmph in a mere 5.9 seconds, topping out at a speed of 250 kmph. Perfect for those quick getaways or just cruising down the streets of Indore like a boss.
This model was one of the pioneers to utilize the revolutionary BMW N62 V8 engine, the world’s first to feature a continuously variable-length intake manifold and BMW’s first V8 to use variable valve lift (Valvetronic). The cherry on top? It comes with a traditional throttle butterfly system as a backup, ensuring your ride never skips a beat.
However, every kingpin’s ride has its quirks. As Instagram user _.amey._28 points out, “It has got suspension issues; the air suspension has gone for a toss.” But don’t let that dampen your spirits. As another user, sxikanth, wisely comments, “Pass. Considering it how difficult to maintenance for one of the non-reliable cars ever produced by BMW.” It seems even in the world of luxury cars, you can’t have it all.
The BMW E65/E66, produced from 2001 to 2008, marked a significant era in luxury cars. Often referred to collectively as the E65, this series replaced the E38 7 Series and was available in various engine configurations. The E65 was a trailblazer, being the first to introduce the iDrive infotainment system, and its exterior design under Chris Bangle was a significant departure from traditional BMW styling.
Other notable features included active anti-roll bars, a six-speed automatic transmission, an electronic Smart Key, and even night vision. About 343,073 E66 7 Series were sold worldwide, making it a rare gem for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
So, for those in Indore looking to add a touch of ‘The Godfather’ to their garage, this BMW 750 Li might just be the offer you can’t refuse. Suspense, speed, and a sprinkle of maintenance drama – it’s all waiting for you. Grab your chance to own a piece of automotive history, air suspension issues and all!
