I bought my 7 about 5-6 years ago, and I bought the 98 E38 on purpose for two reasons. One for the 98 was the last year before the M62 went VANOS, so it has the larger MAF, throttle body and intake runners (that we can bolt onto our M62TU's btw). Within a month of ownership, I had the motor pulled and rebuilt for forced induction...not cheap.

My other reason for choosing an E38 bodystyle is that a lot of people, including myself, aren't fans on the Bangle designs. I actually take a liking to more boxy, hard edged cars as opposed to rounded off edges...the X5 being an exception. Once I see cars become mainstream, dime a dozen cars used in rap videos, rental cars, etc. (300c, 745Li, Range Rover) then i'm out. It's just personal preference.

God, you can't even quote right!

Smart enough? An iL and an Li are both long wheels bases To be completely honest, your Li wouldn't even touch my car...I know that for a FACT my friend.
