You'll be shocked just how long this BMW 7-Series can run without oil.
YouTube channel thought it would be a good idea to source a couple of scrapped cars to see which would run longest without any oil in their respective engines. The two V-8-powered entries—a 2000 Lexus LS 430 and a 2001 BMW 735i— are stark contrasts when it comes to reliability. You'd think a Lexus made by Toyota—the company known for having the most reliable cars on the planet—would last longer than a BMW 7-Series. But you'd be wrong.
After letting the cars idle with no oil for about 30 seconds, the Carwow team decides to give the cars some revs. After pinning both cars to redline, it's the Lexus's engine that dies first, choking out at roughly 1 minute and 20 seconds into the contest. The BMW though? It just wouldn't die. Even after launching and drifting the car, it refuses to stop running. Carwow's host Mat Watson does donuts around the stranded Lexus for 7 minutes 34 seconds before the 3.6-liter N62 V-8 eventually loses all power and shuts off—more than five times longer than it took the Lexus to die. Impressive stuff from a two-decade-old junkyard Bimmer.
