It's one of those cars that's highly dependent on having the right options. 10 years down the line most of them have aged terribly. For all the criticism the E65 received, I felt it was one of the most attractive 7-series designs ever after the LCI. That pretty much corrected all complaints. Heck, it certainly has more presence than the vanilla F01 and G11.

The rest of Bangle's designs were pretty nice and still look great today.
