My Ride: 2008 535i: June 6th start build, complete June 17th, at NY Port July 5th, at dealer July 10th, took delivery Friday July 13- Plantimum Bronze/Natural Brown Leather/Light Poplar, Sport Package, Sport Auto, Active Steering, Premium Package, CWP & PDC. Dinan Performance Software 384hp & 421 ft/lbs.
Extremely satisfied. Still would get the same car with the same options. Continues to exceed my expectations. I had minimal bugs but alot of what I have read have been from people that did not read the owners manual, including me.

I have unfully loaded 530iA. I love it very much if I drive it by myself, but not with load. I'll trade in for 2006 fully loaded 545i SMG or M5 (too long to wait).

Each BMW I have had just gets better and better.
I still enjoy driving my '97 528i every other day, but the 545ia is trully spectacular. Travel about 150 miles daily so I alternate to keep the miles off the 545.
You have to get the sport pkg. It makes any E60 handle and drive like nothing else out there. ARS (steering) and the roll stability addition give the car a light touch and a feeling of total control at most any speed. It gets to a point that you actually look forward to twist and turns in the road to challenge the car, you feel no sway as the car stays flat and level almost magically. Get a kick out of these top heavy SUV's that try to stay with you on the curves, especially the tailgaters. Just say "so long", see ya! No way they can stay with you, and you don't even have to break the speed limit.
Funny, by not driving it daily, it makes me appreciate and enjoy driving it on the days I do take it out it even more.
Best purchase I ever made in my life. Add the power of the 545i and you have everything you could ever wish for in an automobile.
YOU GOTTA LOVE THESE BMW's!
