M760i xDrive (2016-2022)

Can you afford a 2016-2022 BMW 7 Series M760i xDrive in 2025?

The BMW M760i xDrive represents the pinnacle of 7 Series luxury, powered by a formidable 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 producing 601 horsepower. This flagship sedan combines old-world prestige with modern performance, achieving 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds—remarkable for a vehicle weighing over 5,000 pounds. Reviewers praise its effortless power delivery and supreme refinement, though some criticize its numb steering and excessive weight. The V12 badge carries cachet among BMW purists, making it instantly recognizable as the ultimate 7 Series variant. Famous for being BMW's last V12-powered sedan, it's now a collector's curiosity in an era of electrification. Best suited for affluent enthusiasts who value exclusivity and smooth, effortless performance over razor-sharp dynamics. It excels as a highway cruiser and prestige statement, though depreciation makes used examples surprisingly accessible.

The M760i's twin-turbo V12 requires premium fuel and expensive synthetic oil changes. The complex all-wheel-drive system and air suspension are costly to repair. Carbon ceramic brakes, when optioned, cost $10,000+ to replace. Reliability concerns include turbos, electronics, and cooling systems. Insurance rates are extremely high due to the $160,000+ MSRP and performance capabilities.
