Even though it was a large car for its day and offered supreme levels of luxury, the BMW E38 7 series stayed true to its roots of “The Ultimate Driving Machine.” You could instantly recognize that this car was derived from sport sedans of yore, with it’s double kidney grille and four headlamp profile. In markets outside the US, this was to be the last 7 series available with a manual gearbox. In addition, BMW offered a Sport Package on the E38, as we see here with what is possibly one of the lowest mileage examples left in existence.

One beef I have with this ad is the picture quality. A 7 series of this quality really needs better, less grainy photography to show off how unmolested it is. The asking price for this car is uncharted territory for the E38. It would certainly be hard to find another with mileage like this, but I would rather seek one out that had a little bit more use, so I wouldn’t feel guilty about that first scratch.

I wonder if the spare tire well has blue overspray on it from the factory?
