535's are great cars and even though BMW has 10yrs/120,000 miles warranty i still won't touch this car. The problem is on going and it can take for ever to have the fuel pump fixed only to be back few months later and on and on.
There's a reason why 535's are so cheap now and yes they are every where. I live in a small town and we don;t have a BMW dealership yet our local Toyota store has 2 of them,i wonder why ?
BTW i am car shopping myself and have finally left a deposit on an 07 530i with 19,000 miles....

Each to his own... My 535 is great, and loads of power for a 6 (great gas mileage too!).

Cool, everyone has their own way of justifying their purchases. Enjoy your your pre-lci 5-series!

Guys,
Relax,i by no means trying to talk bad about 535's. I just wanted to let the OP know that even though the car would have the warranty,the inconvenience factor of dealer visits could still be there.
I think 535's are bargains right now not to mention the modability factor of the car.

Yep, love my 535i 15,000 miles and going strong, not one issue and I have the JB+ to boot. For the money I paid for my car, I can't find a better driving machine I'd rather owned!
