AI Listing Summary
This 1997 BMW 740i, with 102k miles, features a desirable 4.4L V8 and a clean California history. Despite some noted cosmetic blemishes and a minor oil leak, it comes with recent service records and a clean Carfax report, making it an attractive option for enthusiasts.

Condition
6
The vehicle has some cosmetic wear, including blemishes on the paint and wheels, as noted in the description and photos. There is also an oil leak from the valve covers when the car sits for extended periods.
