The History of the BMW 750iL (E38)

The BMW 750iL of the E38 generation was produced from 1994 to 2001 and set new standards in the luxury car segment. The E38 was the third generation of the 7 Series and followed the E32, which was produced between 1986 and 1994. Responsible for the design of this iconic sedan was designer Boyke Boyer, along with the legendary chief developer Wolfgang Reitzle. The 750iL was the flagship model and was powered by a powerful 5.4-liter V12 engine that delivered 322 horsepower. Technical highlights included the integrated navigation system, a novelty in the 1990s, and an electronic damper system for optimal driving comfort. In 1994, when the BMW 750iL was first introduced, significant historical events occurred, such as the release of the hit song "All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow, the release of the film Forrest Gump, and the beginning of negotiations for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). These events provide an interesting historical context for the vehicle.
