My Ride: 2005 545i SMG. Titanium Grey with Grey interior and Anthracite wood.
I have 2500 miles on my 2005 which I picked up 10/21/04 and no problems with the car. I think most of the problems you hear are user issues.

I have 1800 miles in 4 weeks on my 530i. You'd think I'm living in it!!
No problems at all.... MY2005. I treasure every time I have to go somewhere now! Even heavy traffic is a pleasure.

My only continuing gripe is I really want Bluetooth and I suspect it ain't gonna happen....but on some level I knew that kind of issue could crop up when I bought the first run of a new model....you needn't worry here.

I have a 2004 545i 6sp, manufactured in late May. After 8,000 miles the car has been absolutely perfect (knock on wood). Not one single problem of any type. Best car I've ever driven.
(I did have an issue with the cellphone and echo's, but I got a new cellphone and the problem has been corrected - I wouldn't count that as a car problem).
