$11,995 buys a 2000 BMW 740i Sport in Los Angeles with 98,500 miles, a clean title and current 2027 registration, making it the latest Nice Price or No Dice candidate.
The standard-wheelbase E38 pairs BMW’s desirable Sport package—upgraded suspension, Style 37 wheels, sport seats and shadowline trim—with a 4.4-liter V8 rated at 282 horsepower and 354 lb-ft.
Seller photos show silver paint, a light gray leather cabin and burlwood trim in strong cosmetic condition, but the listing offers little maintenance history or detail beyond calling the car beautiful inside and out.
The evaluation leans on the E38’s reputation as one of BMW’s best-looking 7 Series models and a less gadget-heavy alternative to later generations, while leaving the key question whether the low-mileage example justifies its asking price.
This classic BMW costs less than a new car's down payment. Is it a savvy investment or financial trap?
