The BMW 7-Series is now available with the M-Sport package in Malaysia though numbers are very, very limited. There are only two units in Malaysia for now – both are 740Li models with the 3.0 litre twin-turbocharged inline-6 mated to an automatic transmission.
The M-Sports package features a different bumper with more chrome at the front, glossy black window trim, and a bumper featuring a faux diffuser design at the rear.
The premium for the M-Sports package is about RM30,000, which is probably pocket change for the CEO who wants his chauffeured ride to look a little meaner. The BMW 740Li M-Sport retails for RM848,800, up from the regular 740Li’s RM818,800 price tag.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Wow.Almost 1 million. Can buy 17 Myvi or 10 Inspira. I don’t think is worth it in Malaysia unless you’re earning easy money.
Yes, you’re right.
My neighbour build a house for RM50.000
Don’t know why some people need to build a house for RM500.000 or RM750.000. Can buy 10 or 15 houses for that money… ;)
ya.. u r right.. different car suit different people.. this car is still worth it unless it is so common like Myvi then its worthless for RM900K
Haha..Wait for a couple of years more, then u’ll see many of these 7 series ‘grey import’ flooding m’sian roads… Much cheaper than new!
then u should get 50 2nd hand kancil instead of myvi or inspira and tell d whole world that u own 50 cars..==””
just wondering…the car already 1Mil……their house ???
Dang… no V8 sound!
paul….no update on audi a8 debut here?
the white 740d is also available with Msport pckage?
all 7 can be equipped with t M-Sport but we are getting the 740Li only.
this is a very beautiful and spacious car!
Unlucky me! BMW Malysia said I’m no.3
Ha9!
Paul, i dunno whether 7 is CBU/CKD …..
Any hint?
This car costs RM200k more than an equivalent Audi A8L 3.0TFSI yet offer virtually the same performance? Why?
Because ”its a BMW” mar, as simple as that.
8 gear mah.. my kancil auto ony got 3 je… walau weh…
With the outdated brand perceptions we have in Malaysia, I kinda understand that. But we’re not talking about a RM20k difference, not even a RM100k difference. It’s RM200k! You gotta be a totally insane BMW lover to still buy a 740Li with this kind of discrepancy.
BMW – Burn My Wallet….
BMW- Banyak Masuk Workshop
BMW – Best Man Wins
Because they can.
fren…there are plenty of die hard BMW fans in Malaysia who wud opt for this beemer over merz despite d hefty price tag.
audi is for the trendy entrepreneurs / yuppies but old bald headed big tummy towkays normally go for d top 2 conventional choices.
2nd that!
Merc:
*S-Class – Towkay Uncle aged 45++, Late Success in Life, Minister (Family type person)
*E-Class – Manager 35++ almost successful or can be Towkay Uncle as well
*C-Class – Successful young lads, 30++ Executive or been provoke by wife to buy for her own use :D
BMW:
7er – Towkay Uncle aged 45++, Late Success in Life, Minister, Young at heart, Love night life (driver drive the car and hide,takut kantoi)..hehe
5er – Manager 35++ almost successful or can be Towkay Uncle as well (love attention) or maybe MLM person who reach gold platinum level! (sigh)
3er – Successful young lads, 27++ Executive..love show off,love night life, got money to mods to //M style etc..and most of all owned by MLM people who like to show cash and thumbs up in their facebook profile..LOL
AUDI:
A8 – Towkay Uncle aged 45++, Late Success in Life, Minister, Young at heart..or can be young CEO as well in regard to position himself among other old CEO..got taste
A6 – Manager 35++ almost successful, not a towkay..but maybe part of shareholder or high rank partner who got money..family oriented person..but sometimes love to speed and playaround speed..
A4 – Young lads who got money by succeful in his business, young manager 30++, love nightlife, wants to be different, particular in details..
dats what my research so far..
Young lads for BMW3, Merc-C or Audi-A4? what kind young lads can afford that in Malaysia? we not living in Euro. RM200K car you basically need to pay Rm3K per month. Our real-life salary is not what the Government portrait what it is like!
i drive lexus, u done any research? pls share.
bring in the Hyundai Equus and this problematic bmw can tapao!
The BMW 730Li costs RM 648,800 …. closer to the Audi A8L 3.0 at RM 658,800 although not as powerful.
Definitely will get this over S class if I have the mooooo
MAFIA CAR to chase ah beng car HAHAHA period
Looks very good for a top end luxury car. Next should be the Msport kit on the new 5 series.
With this kinda price tag, sometimes i wonder why this brand could be stranded at the emergency lane…. i encounter not once, but several time. I honestly want to know why…
its not a toyota hahhaha.. but honestly, all cars have problems with reliability, and quality problems to a certain extent. there is no such thing as a perfect car.
my whole family including myself own german cars, and not once have any of us been stranded on the roadside, but it doesnt mean the cars are 100% bullet proof.. but good maintenance and at least some understanding of how your car operates or likes to be operated helps a lot.
Logical question… Pay more … better quality …better engineering and reliability
fully imported from Germany, it cannot stand Malaysian weather, that’s why..
u need to have driver for this…if not ppl say its not yours
normally driver sit behind, boss drive the car, scare kidnap mah..
M-sport and ‘regular’ .. that regular sure is 1000 times better than my ride, yet still consider ‘regular’ …
people who buy this cars doesnt know how to drive, they have driver
if u drive this car, people might think u r the driver! haha
Correct! Correct! Correct! Esp if you’re dark skin!
i thought only the 5series had the 8sp auto. I am sure that only the F01 V12 engines had the 8sp auto and the others still have the 6sp auto?
only 760 and d 740d xDrive gets the 8 speeder. from the brochure, it states like that. :D
Looks nice.bt i definatly go for da previous generation 7 series dat looks like no other car,
sports means more chrome on bumper?
lol
it looks rubbish to me, the ordinary bumper got better looks
Hope it doesn’t get the usual rubbish M-Sport suspension too.
That’s the only thing that make me hate the 320d. Just really hate the m sport suspension. The fatigue after driving the car is even worse than sitting a kancil
it’s this kind of silly country that has car dealers pluck a random number out of thin air to price their cars… come on … 848,800 ?
As ridiculous as the Nissan 370z being priced at RM370,000 …
Woah so Ngam meh ??
lanjiao.
might as well price it at 888,888 more ngam
848K now but on how about resale value couple of years down…
BMW dont hold their value as good as a Merc….
Then again why doesn’t it hold its value compared to Merc?
If one can afford RM848K who cares about 2nd hand value?
Again can someone give me a logical answer why BMW doesn’t hold value like a Merc.
a) Is it becos of its inherent reliability issue?
b) Is less prestigious than merc.?
c) Bank give less loan compared to merc?
d)
e)
why why why……
2nd hand value? they have their RM8 million bungalow holding value already…..and appreaciating.
go buy a kancil or viva if you want better 2nd hand value
Lexus LS600h beats this any day!!
Lexus is NOT BMW and never will be.
Believe that ! :)
Lexus can never be a BMW…..unreliable ha ha ha
Lexus will never be near or even can smell the border line of Continental and build quality like German Cars..it should be Lexus Ls600h got beaten everyday! :P
“Build quality like German Car” Where are have you been in the past 30 years….
It is a known fact quality = Lexus and
BMW = workshop ha ha sorry could help myself…
The best euro car is Merc….
The Audi A 8L is a better buy. It pumps out 290 bhp with a body weight of only 1880kg. It is quattro driven and at RM656k is a steal compared to the 740. There are several options, such as the rear entertainment package where all controls can be done from the centre console; a full LED headlights and also a B&O sound system, which is about the best in the world today. After all that , one would still be able to have some money to get a Golf TSI to use for the weekend supermarket run.
Agree! I will buy an A8 anytime if I was in the market shopping such ride!
And for the change, I would top up a little and get a VW EOS for weekend drives.
Hopefully there will be F10 550i M-Sport coming in to Malaysia!
Cant wait for that! Yippiee!
Paul, still sleeping ka? Hahha.. sorry for disturbing.
resale value?rich man don ever care or worry about it!
I could live in a luxury hilltop bungalow with that kind of money…@_@
luxury bungalow hiilltop cost rm848,000??? where u bought? still got stock available?
new 7 siries.. it’s a great car, wait for 2nd hand leer..or recon new.around 300k
Bmw ultimate driving machine..more than u can effort..cool 7 siries..i love it..
when some dato can buy 5million house in cash. What is this 848K for them? and what is resale value for them?
Mercedes / AUdi way better than BMW!!! BMW always give lots of trouble!! Junk car!!! Front grill totally look like pig nose… BMW —> PIG NOSE car…Tak halal
bcoz of this pignose la no wonder
there’s myv, blm, waja, persona go to ah beng mods….. :)
Still uncomfortable.
This amount of money can buy house oledi. Ya, I know is BMW. But. if u r RICH PPL, will say. “Wah, murah ooo.” For the low income, “Walau, can buy two house lot oledi”
So, better buy house. House got Value, CAR no value. hahahha
not attractive at all. toooooo expensive
its not for u and me..
US market. BMW 740Li Sedan, 3.0L, 315HP, 6 speed. USD72,000, approx RM220,000.
Why do we have to pay RM819,000?
That’s RM600K more than the US of A people who makes much more money than us.
LOL, bunch of you, should stop complaining and find ways to earn money.
It’s already proven that plenty of Malaysians can afford a couple of ferraris and homes worth 4-20mil, and they worked hard for it,
i suggest you start doing the same =)
HAHAHA,, 2 high end villa on the road!!
C’mon there are alots of young lads that can afford 3, C, and A4… Dont be such a pessimist la. Yes, our car might be expensive. But i still can see alot of those nice cars. Y must we live in euro to drive those cars?
