I'm coming from 2006 328xi was impressed how e60 drove, so I kinda really wanted the at that moment, but now my second thought is saying i should look more.
I did put 3,000 down on that car which will hold it until Monday afternoon to get full down back.

Thanks for your input.
Yikes ... Not even at a BMW dealer that I know and trust would I hand over a $3000 deposit unless I have actually sealed the deal. It's just NOT a wise decision even with a money-back in full ... no questions asked document signed by G_D!! In more than 40 years of buying cars (expensive and cheap) $100 refundable deposit (A CHECK or Credit Card - NOT CASH!) is the most I've ever handed over to "hold the deal" for a day or two while I think about it.

Thats a fair price. I paid similar for mine last year so that sounds about right.

honestly i was thinking the same thing. i own an iphone 4. but my last car was a jaguar s-type and i had navigation. the difference is night and day. add to that my best friend has navigation in her 545i....its amazing compared to my set up. the screen on the non-nav cars is a definite eye sore. if i could go back in time, i would have found my exact same car....just with Navigation. hands down!

Droid owner & I shouldn't complain since mine has nav (& original map disc, I think) but considering the ease of updates vrs the in dash unit and better flexibility, I just don't see it as a must have feature anymore and actually seems to be a waste of money.
