~when you get into a 5 series and say "man, it's a bit cramped in here"
You know your 7 owner when you can use the backseat as a couch
When you have to argue with the gas attendant about the fact that it WILL actually take all $70 to fill it, and yes you know your gauge says just under a 1/4 tank already.
When you ask for v12 parts, and every one gives you v8 part numbers.

Guilty on the 5 series being cramped comment. I see it as I have graduated to a "big boy car" with my 7.

when you don't want to give it gas in front of people when its hot cause ur fan sounds like a vacuum
you use the startac phone as a conversation piece
When u just dropped $3500.00 on the guides, and a month later $2000.00 on the tranny and yet the next morning you say under your breath... "I love this car"!
I'll try one out from my first week of ownership: When every single part at PartSource (like autozone I believe) is a special order, even wiper blades.
You know u r 7 owner when u notice a loose bolt and have to take off the fan and clutch to get at it. And u can do the job in less than 10 minutes.
When you feel that when sitting in almost any other car, you have to raise your voice because of the terrible wind and tire noise.
And when you get irritated when people call it an "old BMW", because to you it is so much more than that and definitely a LOT better than many of the new BMWs.
U know u r a 7 owner when your wife can't sit in the front seat because her giant purse might scratch the dash. Lol
When .2 liters is such a big deal that you spend 3k to do it
