I loved the torque my V8 7 series had and when I went on trips to WV to pick my daughter up, I loved the way it handled in the mountains. I will say I still prefer the I6 my X5 has and prefer it more now. As far as maintenance for the V8, I owned five of them and it won't cheap and long term I would not own one again. My 7 cost me about 4k to maintain last year and I sold it.
