My Ride: 530i 2006 Jet Black w/tan leather. Premium package; Sport Package; Sat Radio
Default

I got my new 530i last week. Picked it up in SoCal and drove it back to to the SF Bay Area. This has to be the best car I have ever owned! It has totally exceeded my expectations.

Also, this site is great. I really enjoy reading all of the postings.

Here are the details:
Jet black
Tan leather
Premium package
Sport package
Sat radio

I am so happy I got the engine with more HPs I can't image what it is like driving a 545i. It must be a rocket.
