a bit OT, but yes i think it's a lot of money for mostly the status. i would be happy if i can try business class once. but since i get cheap ticket every time, i am always denied for upgrades, hehe

Yep, if you get the cheap fare to AUS, you are not upgrading - you need to go up to the fare that is 80% higher JUST FOR THE CHANCE TO UPGRADE.

Love this OT stuff with mods...

Ok, I just checked.... $8K gets you LAX to HKG in business.

Add $11K to that amount to go to ORD from SYD!!! Yes, refundable business class ticket is $19K - First Class is $25,500.....

$160,000 is still reasonable imo considering its rarity and the trip to France and luxury hotel and stuff, but meeting with the engineers is really not necessary, at least it is so to me.

This new 7series is by far the best most beautiful looking EVER...perhaps he best design in bmw's lineup, IMHO. it looks so elegant graceful and has character and presence. Even the INTERIOR, (which in typical bmw iv absolutely been DISGUSTED by), is EXTREMELY well thought out, designed and captures the senses. i LOVE it.

Im VERY pleased with this new car...but to spend $160,000 for a neiman marcus edition - probably not..Il take a regular 7 in the following color
