[/quote]16.2 looks pretty good. it seems like it's booting up faster now (i was on 13.x). moving through menus seems faster as well. let's hope it will stay like that whole the time.
new tires are awesome. they are dunlops still. no more noise.
steering seems lighter at slower speeds.
didn't drive much today. i'll check it out more tomorrow.
one thing that i've noticed is that i-drive says i have 15k miles until the next oil change while the board computer (dash board) says i have 10k miles left. hmmmm... that's weird. i just changed oil few days ago. maybe something got screwed up....

Some people have even reported that cars coming direct from the factory are arriving with very old versions of the software.

New E60's ALLWAYS have the newest available software!
The day they get build they get the neweset available software. So a new E60 has the newest software earlier than some dealers!
