I think you made a very good deal. Seems like a wise decision and you will get a lot of good use and enjoyment out of the car. Good luck.
i was thinking either 528 or 535 for long time, until i joined this forum, 99% said 535 it is
i worried about turbo issue and more weight toward the front and maybe turbo too loud, until i test drove it, not loud at all and feel comfortable
too bad, i cannot afford a brand new 2009, quote 65k fully loaded
with 2008, maybe i still need cookies for lunch in order to make the payment every month, haha

So a 5er depreciates about 30% in the first year?

i also saw the 38k on autotrade, but the title is not clean, and i want white color, it really took me long time to make this decision

Ok...turns out it was actually almost $40K, with 25K miles.
i think it is better to pay $3000 more and 20k miles less, but the car i am getting does NOT have L7 sound system and without PDC, that's only thing i miss

if that's the case, i feel better that i can install third party system for better quality
but do i get less speaker than L7 package? like 10 speakers?
