Hi Ed,

I should be getting it either tomorrow or saturday.....can't wait!

BTW, since deregistering my E46 for export, I've been driving around in my uncle's 15 year old Charade for the last 2 weeks, when I get the E60, it's going to be such a big jump!

Yippiee got my ride today. "Chao" work for 2 hours to get the car at Sime Darby center. The colour combo looks better than expected. My SE told me a couple came to see my car earlier in the day coz they are thinking of the same combo as well.

Went for a drive this evening on the PIE up to tuas and back down to town via AYE. Hit 150km/h, stable as rock. It's so quiet compared to my E46! My wife is pretty impressed.

Went for a run on SBV road as well, actually managed to get the tyres to screech taking one of the turns a bit too fast. ARS is great, can't feel any body roll even at pretty high speed. The run flats do make the ride a bit firmer than expected though.

Couple of downers

- it freaking rained this afternoon! just after I drove out of SDC...arggghh, I guess it had to get wet sometime

- PML may have missed the Professional Radio option....damn, my SE is checking, if so I'm going make lots of noise.....

Will try and post some pics soon...

Hey Eggz,

Congrats on the new car, what a bummer.... do you think PML will be able to retrofit the Professional radio?

Hi Eggz

Welcome! Nice to have one more joining the family of E60-530is. Assume that you would be running your fingers over all the features and trying out those that we have highlighted here.

This new babe is far far more superior than the E46 that you had and I am sure you are going to enjoy every minute while you are in the cabin.

Are there any features that are added that we don't get coz we were earlier? Do share your experience with us

Hi Everyone...

Ordered an Amethyst 525iA confirmed July production!

I have until coming Wed (3 Jun) to confirm all the options. I'd like to know if your standard seat headrests can swivel ? I understand the manual states that it does ??

Thanks for your advice, everybody!

Haven't really spent a lot of time in the car last few days. Still looking for a child seat.

I did get a confirmation from PML that the Professional Radio is in. I'm still a bit blur about iDrive

BTW, my SE says there's so far 1 order of a 545i in Singapore, priced at a crazy $300+K. I would have just waited for the M5.
