Many are guided by leasing rather than buying outright so those individuals "go with the flow" when changing cars.
I wonder whether the "5 Series" will be abandoned in droves when the F10 comes along and will be retained only by the cogniscenti (and the poor!).

My Ride: 330 Convertible
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi, first timer here. Great forum. I drive a 2003 330 convertible right now and am thinking of getting the MY08 535i but I read in various places that the F10 will be coming out in 2009. How reliable are these predictions?
Thanks,
Thanks,

I supposed it is how comfortable with your car and whether it starts to break down.... Heard from an E39 owner that his car has been giving alot of problems thus costing him a lot of money.
As for being bitter and critical, well, they do have a point... the E39 is much easier on the eyes... it took me a while before I warmed up to the E60....nevertheless, both are beautifully engineered cars.....
As for the new models, well, my car is pretty much complete and if it doesn't give problems, it should be with me for a while....

Do a search, but 2009 sounds too soon. I've not kept track of thoughts on when the F10 is introduced but BMW is just introducing the refreshed E60 w/ the 2008 model year (U.S. model year). I doubt they would then intro the F10 a year later. F10 is likely 2-3 years out, at least. But do the search, I now there have been discussions on the F10 introduction on this forum...
Thank you.
