Tough choice, but I voted for "Luxury" because it was the main reason I chose the 530d over the 330d. Both are very good cars, but the 5 is much more comfortable, smooth and quiet. Mine's just an SE so it's not that sporty (goes well in a straight line though) but I do quite like the way it looks. Would trade up to a later model 530d Sport if I had the spare cash.

What is luxury and what is sport? Sport is driving performance. Luxury means any option that adds comfort and convenience. Compared to other cars, I don't think an e60 is considered a luxury for the price. I can get more luxury for less price in a Toyota, VW, or Nissan. I don't think the e60 is considered a luxury like MB or Lexus. It's more of a drving performance, and that's what I bought and e60 for, driving performance and looks.

What do you think?
The e60 has it all! I bought mine after driving all of the competition, and I knew less than a quarter of a mile from the dealership that the car is special compared to everything else in it's class. Now with the mods I've done m aero kit, wheels, tires, angelibrights, it gets looks from everyone. My wife is jealous because everyone that comes over checks out my car and just walks by her Lexus SC430 without a glance.
