My Ride: 530iA Silver Grey , black interior. Premium Package, Navigation System, Head-up Display, Radio Satellite, Adaptive Xenon Headlights. AC Schnitzer Front Lip, H&R springs, Rear red reflector, All season Floor mat,
Personally myself, 530i owner, regret for not getting the sport package and LOGIC 7. Those two options are a MUST. However, totalling up the amount will be close up to $57-58k. With that kind sum of money, i shall go for 545i instead. Many options are standard in 545i like Premium package and Park distance Control. Just an advice though. OH AND HUD IS GREAT !!! YOU'VE TO GET IT!!

Greetings - My wife has decided that a BMW 530xi is the car for her.? We'll probably go for European delivery. At the moment, we're thinking that the auto transmission, premium package, navigation system, Xenon adapative headlights, cold weather package, and park distance control are the way we'll equip it.? Are there folks out there who might offer their wisdom and experience about these options, or those not chosen which might be really good to have? We live near Boston, and the car will be used for daily commuting (30 miles r/t), as well as trips around the Northeast. Any advice Boston-area members might have about dealers would also be great.? TIA for your help.

I will buy a lesser car that is loaded, over a better car which is standard.? This is why I got the 545 over the 645.?

Other than the shape and fact that you cannot seat as many people,? what makes the 645i better than the 545i.
