No wonder you got bored with your 530 coz you don't drive it, a 2004 530i and only have 22900 miles.... drive it more and you will enjoy it.... don't just stare at the car....

going to 6 series will not get you out of boredom it will only last you one week and you will be bored again with the 6. Get a Bugatti Veyron 16.4 and you will never be bored again lol..jk

PS I've looked up some dealer auction prices and you're definitely in the lowest mileage category and looks like you can easily get at least 18K on a trade in. Private sale, I'd ask for 22 and go down in increments of 50-100 dollars when people low-ball you (which they will). If you need any word on selling, let me know - I used to run a used car lot years ago not sure if that's a good thing

for real.. if you get a chance, check out the crosstown late at night. it is a toll road and the upper part of the highway has NO oncomming traffic, it is 3-4 lanes wide and it is elevated above the lower highway (no animals to run out at you). it is also very very smooth. i hit 155 on it more times then i can count. there is also nowhere for cops to sit. since it is all lanes and cement dividers. there will also be NO traffic in your direction.

I kinda feel the same way, we have a 650 and it is a lot of fun , but I'm leaning towards something a little smaller and more sporty myself >>>>>>>
