Talk:BMW 7 Series (E32)

message: For the first reference (http://www.7-forum.com/modelle/e32/sonderausstattung.php) there is an advert that consumes most of my screen upon rollover. On my old iBook, things ground to a halt; I don't expect everyone to have modern computers. Perhaps there is a better source out there for the various flavours of the E32 7 Series. Also, I do not understand why the rest of my edit was reverted.

replies: text: I use firefox as well, and do not get that advert, or any other intrusive ads. Maybe it's spyware related? Regardless, that web page is still a highly usable source because it has the full options list with prices etc. If you know a better source, please add it. Rpvdk 06:57, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

message: It was produced from 1987 to 1994. Article says it started in '86 and ended in '94.
"The E32 itself was replaced by the E38 in 1994,"
E38 production started in 1995. Paulmer2003 (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Wrong. E38 production started at some point in 1994, probably in summer. Don't confuse the "model year" with the actual production date. E32 production started in late 1985, November or December 1985, and continued when the E38 was already in production (only E32 730i, with M30B30 engine) !  -- Alexey Topol (talk) 17:08, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

message: How Could it cost that when the Euro wasn't introduced until after the car was made? Is that an equivalent? If so at what converion and from what original currency? (Morcus (talk) 05:15, 20 July 2012 (UTC)

message: *The first BMW to have electronic stability control was the E38. The E32 came with an anti lock brake system and traction control system. Compare here, page 27, the "ASC+T" is not mentioned there.
*Corrected the power output of the M70: It produces 220 kW which equals 300 DIN-PS; even though the 1:1 translation of DIN-PS (Pferdesträke) would be horsepower, 1 DIN-PS does not equal 1 bhp.
*Corrected the power output of the M30B30: The 730i KAT produces 135 kW only. See [here, page 5.
*The West-German Currency was just called "DM", also the Euro price tag does not make sense here.
*The Goldfish-prototype was never meant to be called "767iL", the source "auto, motor & sport" does not say that. Added further information.

message: It is nice to have a production section within the prose, however a good percentage of readers glance at the infobox first and foremost, missing that lower section. They will miss it very easily.
It is not Wikipedia standard for the automotive infobox, to not be allowed to include production months+years and instead, in a separate section. Over 80% of Automotive articles with production sections included have months within them, but not the full date included as stated by User: Stepho-wrs.Three users having a discussion among themselves (and not making it become standard via the linked page), does not exactly dictate how article inboxes are configured across Wikipedia, since it is not even listed here . Quite the opposite in fact. A much deeper discussion, with a widespread panel of users and not just a few out of many, would be a more proper form of consensus being firmly established.A dispute resolution might end up needing to be opened, on the premise that this is not even the standard across this site anyway and is being pushed regardless of that, proving to be disruptive.
