common flaw on all bmw's :thumbsdown:
I own/have owned 4 different 5-series (e34, e39 and e61) and they ALL had/have the same problem, even my brandnew MY 06 e61.
also ALL bmw's of people I know (quite a few..) experience the same problem.
learn to live with it.

Maybe who didn't experience this before didn't wash the car with high water pressure.

My Ride: 520d
Well, Monday was the big day ! Both headlights were replaced under warranty. Great service by BMW folks I have to say. 
And yesterday was a rainy day: well, no mist showed up within the headlights. This could be pure luck, I must admit !!! But I'll keep you posted if any condensation comes back. Once again, my dealer was pretty clear about it: the mist they saw when just washing the car (not with hyper-power K?rcher) and which I previously detected just riding along during rainy weather was NOT normal, and they made no big issue of changing both headlights.
I'll keep you informed of the long-term follow-up !
