I had posted here : What car to get? about my options on my next car. I was stuck with a decision to make because the new body 5 series was coming out next year. After some debate I ended up going to the dealership and signing a new lease a 2009 535i! I got a great deal if anyones interested PM me. I ended up with many more options than my previous car but $100 lower payment. They took my old lease back with 0$ for wear and tear even though I had some damage on the bottom front and back of the car.
Here are the specs in case your all interested
2009 BMW 535i Sedan
Alpine White
Black Dakota Leather
Sports Package
Premium Package
Sport Auto Trans w/ Paddle shifters
Navigation
Bamboo Athracite Wood Trim
I basically took everyones advice which was to wait until the new 5 series gets the kinks worked out before going out and getting one. This should put me into the 3rd production year (3 year lease).
Now to look for some minor tweaks
Thanks for your help!

My Ride: My 5 and I met on Father's Day 2008 and have been together ever since. 20" Wheels (Make TBD), premium package, sport package, AiB V3 upgrade and a Passport Escort 8500 Radar Detector.
Dude, congrats on your new ride! 
Sounds amazing! Post pics when you get a chance.

Thanks guys!
It was from going off a curb when leaving a driveway. They were both scratched on the bottom of the bumper. But they were also scratched so that you could see the scratches when facing the car. I had an estimate done and they said minimum 500$ per bumper but BMW didnt care. So im happy.

Awesome! I was tossing up between Alpine White and Carbon Black - I got the Carbon Black, but it was a close run thing!
What wheels did you get 172's?
What wheels did you get 172's?
It actually came with 124's. I believe those are stock with the sports package. I really wanted 172's though but I believe those come with the 550s?
I might upgrade to those eventually..
Which ones did you get?
