BMW 7-Series

Prestige

 

2009 BMW 7-Series

In the big ticket prestige segment, 5-year ownership costs end up being over $100,000.  As a result, when the BMW 7-series has ownership costs that are over 8% lower than expected, the savings end up having significant value.  That type of performance is what earned the 7-series Vincentric’s Best Value in America award for the second year in a row.
