It's not even riding on tires, it's riding on just 22in rims.

LOOK AT THIN THOSE TIRES ARE!

The paint job is horrendous for a 7series. I can see it on maybe a M3/M5 but not the 7.
The price it's at right now isn't too bad.

I think it is overall extremely hideous. The paintjob and wheels. I wouldnt mind the tires if they were wrapped around some nicer wheels

You know when you drive past a dealer, and you see all the cars in the lot with the white film on the hood, roof, trunk, etc. Yeah, his paint job reminds of that.

There's a reason why it's going at $22,000 with no reserve.

I do like the blue. I think if you painted the entire car that blue it would look much better. Those rims have got to go. But other than that this car isn't overly modded or anything. Aren't like 20 monitors in the car or a horrendous exhaust or large wing.

We've seen worse.
