Thanks. I see you're in Germany. Are you German? I used to live in Germany. I went to the University of Heidelberg. Deutsch war mein Hauptfach.
Whew, those days were a drunken haze.

BMW 545i
Well, I was thinking of getting the 530i until I drove the 545i. The 545i is sweet, noticeable power difference, handles great and very quiet inside.? I wish it had the intelligent key and wish the fold down rear seats were standard, which they should be for the $64k car I was looking at. The HUD is pretty cool, but not sure I would like that in the long run. Seemed blurry at times, especially if you're not looking directly at it.
I want the 545i, but am still thinking about the 530i too. 6k difference for the model of 545i I want and I think it's worth it. On the other hand, that adds $136 to the 3 year lease because they will only give a 58% residual on the 545i where it's 60% on the 530i.
If I go with the 530i I may regret that I didn't get the 545 instead. For me, I'm not sure I could live with the fact that I bought a 57k dollar car that has less HP than a Nissan Altima. But you could also argue that if you just want a fast car then go and get a Mitsubishi Evo that will smoke all of these for 25k less.
