If you like plush ride, get 7. If you like agility and good handling, get 5.
I am 20.but which car do you think has more prescence on road.and which car looks better.

The 5 for sure!!! Man, I wish I could afford a 5 at that age. Unless.... papa and mama are buying it and insuring it for you??? I'm 30... two university degrees, one of them a doctorate. Took me 5 years after leaving school to finally get a 5. Where did I go wrong in school???

Man, you guys crack me up!!! Yeah, school was a long haul for me, but it got me to where I wanted to be in life. If it weren't for that, I'd probably be looking for another 4-cyl Accord by now! (Don't get me wrong, the Accord is a GREAT car, but it can never compare to a 5!!)

5 Series all the way!! Its not relly about price or status or even age to me its about size. The 7er is too big to me. It does have great road performance but not like the cornering of the e60. I think the e60 is the perfect size for a BMW. The 2nd best size is the M3 which also fits like a nappa leather glove!
