Hello All,
I have been reading the forum for quite some time and I am glad that I can finally contribute. After countless hours of research and test driving, I picked up a 2006 530i. I looked at and drove both the 550i and a demo model of the 545i. Both which are wicked fast and beatuful machines but traffic laden southern california made it easy for me to choose the 530i. The 530i has the following:
Titanuim Silver/Grey Leather
Premium Package
Premium Sound
Sport Package
HUD
Navigation
Sirius.
I hope to add the M-Aero Kit at a later time but it was tough as they would not residualize it on my lease payment. I will add pics shortly as the car is in the shop getting the HUD adjusted so that I can see it and replacing the screen for the i-drive. Thanks again for all of your comments and feedback which I read through and was able to base my decision off of. I hope to contribute and assist other members with some of their buying decisions.
