My Ride: 2010 Lexus HS 250h...looking to get a 2011 535xi
After previously telling me the 2006 525 and 530xi's would be out this spring (in the US), my dealer just informed me that now the AWD versions wont be available until the fall.
:'(
Anyone heard anything differently?

Yesterday, I was at Philadelphia Auto Show and talked with exhibitors and with SA from West German BMW dealership (Fort Washington, PA). They did not give me a price list but both confirmed that 530xi's will be available in May as 2006MY model.
Oh, I hope that's the case. I'm anxiously (and financially recklessly) awaiting to trade in my 2004 Acura TL for a 530xi... I don't think I could wait until fall. I need therapy...

You don't like your 04 TL? What's wrong w/ it?

My previous car was a 330xi (my first BMW) and I now appropriate what amazing cars they are (and even more so after test driving a 530).
Ultimately, though, I am just a hopeless car wh*re...I've always got my eye on something else...

So...just to reset things a bit, I am curious what the latest scoop is on the availability of the 530xi... I am dying here...
