Quilted And Quiet
Black BMW 7 Series
Five metres of saloon with the good seats in the back, for less than half what the German competition asks.
Every generation of 7 Series has been the car BMW tries things on first.
The 7 Series is where BMW puts the ideas before anybody else gets them, and it is the most car per dollar in this part of the fleet: five metres, quilted leather, and a back seat built to be sat in rather than filled.

The argument for a 7 in Los Angeles is the back seat: a long saloon with the seats reclined and the glass thick is the most comfortable way to cross this city, and that arriving in one says something different from arriving in an SUV of the same money.
Inside is where the money went. Diamond quilting front and rear, ambient light run along the dash in a strip, and a screen that curves towards the driver so the passenger never has to look at it. It is a specification that would be optional on most cars and standard here.

The whole city, crossed in comfort.

The 7 Series with a driver
The business day is the booking this car is built for — the back seat as the office between meetings; the investor circuit, Century City to Downtown to a lunch in Beverly Hills without anybody watching a parking structure clock; and the arrival block at LAX, where the driver is at arrivals with your name and the same car takes you to the hotel and the first meeting. With a driver it is two lines on one quote: the driver from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum, and the 7 Series at the $230 it carries on this page. An evening block of four hours comes to $630, driver and car together; a business day of 8 hours is $1,030.
The driver waits between meetings — the waiting inside the block and the fuel are in the hourly line — and the car on the quote is this one, named, not a class with “or similar” after it. It is the same 7 Series you can take the keys to on this page, so a week can be self-drive with a driver on the one day that is all meetings.
