Hello Friends...he

Just to let guys know, that here in Europe, we indeed have 6Cyl E38's, the 728i, available, in the standard E38 Size (not the'iL') version, also a 728iSport, with the all the toyz, also we have a 735i, 735iSport, 740i, 740iL, 740iSport, 750i, 750iL and 750iSport.....

The other question was, the power.....well, its 1 second slower than the 740i int 0-60 category, and I had it sitting happily at 140mph.....Not bad for a 2.8 6Cylinder......babe magnet!


I'm visiting from the e32 site and have a question I hope you can answer. During a visit to the Middle East, while admiring a new 7 series, I noticed that the badge said "728iL". I didn't know that BMW put anything other than V8's and V12's in the e38 cars? Are there indeed 6 cylinder engines in 7 series in international markets? What other engines does BMW currently use in 7 series cars outside the US? This car has to be underpowered for its size!
