My Ride: '10 535i M-Sport
Model Year: 2010
Engine: N54

Hello!
I have purchased a 2010 535i M-sport. After test driving 6 different 535i's, I absolutely fell in love after driving it. I used this site before I had become a member to make my decision to purchase a 5 series, as I am coming from a E53 X5.
I am no stranger to fast cars in the past, but new to turbos. So I may have a question or two along the way.
I have had her a grand total of 1000 miles and purchased her with 65k. General maintenance will be priority before upgrades. So far the only concern is some very brief wastegate ticking on deceleration around 20-25 mph... no ticks at cold startup. I'll be addressing the ticks this weekend.
I have not had a chance to get some good pics of her yet, but these will do for now
