My Ride: 2004 BMW E60 530i, upgrades: Magnaflow exhaust, Mtec angel eyes and low beam head lights, Just purchased 172 style wheels, looking around for the best tires on Tire Rack now. R1 concepts rotors drilled/slotted. Saving for the M-style kit from Trinity Auto.
2004 530i with 117,600, recently replaced the starter, starts up like its a new car. Other than replacing tires and oil when due, it runs great. Also, new spark plugs replaced at 100,000 at recommendation from the dealer.

By the way, I also have an E46 (bought new) that has 100k miles on the original brakes. They're about 75% or 80% worn. Clutches on both cars are original. If you don't believe any of this, that's your option. Just kindly keep it to yourself.

193K Miles on mines. It's a 2004 manual 530i. with basic maintenance, change throttle body, and transmission service( replace cluctch )other than that still runs strong and healthy.
