Hi everyone,

Had the car for one year now.

I wanted to get into an SUV for the winter. I have had no problems with the snow tires last winter but I was dead afraid that some nut in an SUV would lose control and hit me ( Now I'm the NUT ). I am somewhat tired of constantly finding a remote parking spot at work ( l Leave 30 minutes earlier just to get a good corner space ). I garaged this car more than I could drive it just fearful that someone will dent it. 6800 miles in one year. High rpms fixed with software upgrade and have had no problems with the car since

No car can compare to a 545s driveablity and performance (maybe the 550, M5 too expensive)

I will miss it, but I am going to miss this forum more. ( I plan on lurking around)

I was offered $50K for the Car. If anyone here wants it they can buy it for the same price. I am sure the dealer will spin it around and sell it for $53K. I have till the 18th of Nov to turn in the car.

2005 545i Silver with Grey, Navigation, Cold Weather Pkg, Fold down rear seats. PM if interested.

O! My new car will be a Japanese SUV Hybrid.

That's my car you sent to the pound. ~{;^) If not too late, I saw an incredibly beautiful car today at my dealer--Red X5 4.8i. The color went extraordinarily well with the lights all around. The color would cost extra, but also would be great on the X5 4.4i. If the 4.8 was supercharged, then I might trade my 545i for it. What a blast that would be. Wait, I can't do that; there's no room for it where I park, and my wife has a X5 4.4i. OK, then I'll trade her car.
