Thanks for surfacing this, Natlguy. They not only rated it significantly higher than the current S-Class (the car people always compare the 7-Series to), but their comments were in some cases surprising in how definitive they were. For example, the article opens with this sentence:
"After years of trailing the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the 7 Series has outscored the big Benz in our tests." - and - "The BMW 7 Series is the new leader of the luxury segment."
