Hi Guys,

i previously posted the question about what colour to choose between Carbon Black and Silver 535d. Well last saturday I drove to Germany to pay for a beautifull 535d Carbon Black (check out the PICTURE in the ATTACHEMENT).

I had preferred the Silver colour but chose this one cause it has almost ALL options. And after seeing it live, i am begining to love the colour.

I pick up the car tomorrow (Sat 18th june in Germany). Anyone want to come? . Its gonna be a wicked drive back home to NL ! .. I'll post my feedback after the drive home.

I test drove it last saturday anyway. I sat in the car, turned the key and the steering moved down into place and the Comfort seats 'Woke up' and Hugged me! U sit quite high - which i like. I tapped the throttle and the car WHAMMED forward. Ooops! OK lets try that again,,.only this time a bit less tapping! . There were 3 people in the car and is bolts forward like the car has no weight whatsoever! It feels solid, purposefull and amazing (my last car was an e39 530d).

I went on the highway, and by the time i had positioned myself onto the highway on the fast lane, I looked at the HEAD UP Display (Yup its got that option too!! )to decide how fast i want to start going - and i was already doing 190km\h !! Though i was only at 100 or so.

Cant wait till tomorrow !!

In the coming days i shall be giving details feedback on the ride and the LOGIC 7 and other options. Also the car will be DMS tuned soon to 334HP ! and 630NM Torque and i will do a comparison 0-60 run.

MORE TO COME !! please feed in your comments and what u would like to hear.

Hey ronald_adi,

glad you joined the E60 forum and the BMW-addictifness ,

first of all i would like to congrat you with the car
Second: is it a manual or automatic?
Third: Nice options, what do you have more? Heated seats, sports package (probably since you have carbon black ), whatever?
4th: i also came from an E39 530d and want to say i love my new one better too : better sports package and much more room inside,...
5th: Looks like you forgot your attachment i guess
And last: Please update your location settings so we can see you are coming from NL, (which city?) etc. for further meetings and for help so we can recommend you some shops in your neighbourhood.

Good bye, neighbour .

EDIT: Sorry didn't see you posted this topic twice... I will post my comments again on the other thread so this one can be deleted since this one doesn't have the pictures

Gotta be automatic, as the 535d only comes in auto.

Very nice car and spec. Which german dealer did you get it from ?

ronald_adi

From a dealer in HAMBURG. I searched for 3 months before finding one with ALL options (except Active cruise Control). Pity i dont have that.

Ths one also has black interior which i prefer not to have so i am changing the colour (see auburn\TERRACOTTA discussion).

I am quite excited to tomorrows drive back home. I'll take pics of the drive and post it on sunday.
