My Ride: '05 545i - scheduled for ED pickup in Munich on 7/22!
if you're going to mod the car, the e90 will have many more aftermarket parts available than the e60.

Moving up to the next level is a big part of the equation. The E60 is more of a 'grown-up' vehicle over the E90.
Not just for the old any more.
I 100% go for 535i.

My Ride: 2008 BMW 550i Sport
Carbon Black Metallic/Cream Beige
Manny tranny and other stuff
Recently gone, but never forgotten:
2005 Ford Mustang GT (hence the name)
Torch Red/Crimson
Manny tranny and every option available for that year
2002 Chrysler 300M Special
Brilliant Black/Light Taupe/Dark Slate
Autostick and goo-gobs of neat features that I will sorely miss
I obviously chose the 5 over the 3, but for just two reasons. 1) They didn't have a 335i Sedan to my specs on the lot. 2) I lust after V8s! And for them to have a 550i... Sport... AND manual transmission??? It was impossible to pass up! I'm not in love with Carbon Black Metallic, but now that I've given it a few coats of Zaino, it's growing on me more.
