a BMW 750IL cause it came with a V12 and was pretty good looking for a 80's sedan
In July 1986,
BMW introduced the second generation of the
7 series, known internally as the
E32. Aimed at the high end of the luxury market, the car offered some of the latest innovations in automotive technology, and a new, top-of-the-line
V12 engine. Some luxury options featured on the E32 included integrated
telephone and
fax machines, a
wine cooler,
double glazing, electronic stability control, and a system that automatically increased spring pressure on the windshield wipers, to keep them firmly pressed on the glass at
Autobahn speeds. Incidentally, the E32 was the first car adhering to BMW's self-imposed speed limit of 250 km/h (155.37 mph). According to the official American brochure in 1987, the ungoverned 750iL could reach 300 km/h (186.4 mph) with a side note that the terminal speed was electronically restricted.
The car was also available in a stretched version (indicated by an 'L' after the model number), in which case an extra 11.4 centimetres (4.5 in) of leg room was available to the rear passengers by stretching the rear doors, and the body at this point. It was in all years 88-94 in the U.S.
The
BMW 750iL
Highline was the top-of-the-line model of the E32, with lots of added luxury for the rear passengers like full leather, dual
radio controls, dual climate control with coolbox mounted in the center console, electrically heated and adjustable
rear seats, walnut veneer folding tables, two crystal glasses neatly placed in the coolbox, legrests, and sun shade all around the rear/side windows. Complete with independent heating and ventillation, it also added a second
battery in the trunk and a second
alternator to provide power for all these luxuries. The 'Highline' option package cost more than €10,000, and was only available on the 750iL, bringing the total price to well over twice that of a 'basic' 730i ('basic' to be taken in context
