My Ride: 2004 530i Silver Grey Metallic, black leather interior, 172 wheels, 35% tint, comfort, cold weather package, logic 7
Hello folks
I'm considering changing my ride. I will be back to the 5 series in a few years depending on how the F10 fares, but for now, help me out by sharing your opinion. I'm getting very decent trade-in $$ for the 530 so here are my choices - in no particular order.
1. 2007 Lexus GS350 AWD
2. 2007 Audi A4 S-line AWD
3. 2006 BMW 330xi
4. 2008 MB C300 AWD
Cheers

I'd have to say the Audi A4 S-Line 
, but it'll not be a patch on the E60...

Stay away from the C300 4matic. That car drives like a dud. The GS350 AWD is really nice but felt kind of numb to me when I drove it. It felt old folky to me. My choices would be either the A4 or the 330 xi.

My Ride: BMW E60 530i
I would disregard a Lexus!
Especially with recalls happening right now and my aunt used to own one - an ES - and the ride just sucked!
As Clarkson said on his show, "Having a Lexus is like having a punctual girlfriend"! No other fascinating element! She's not sexy, cute, pretty or interesting to talk to! She's just punctual!

comparison to my 545. If I had to chose it would be the Audi S4 but would still prefer a
BMW to any of the above - just my 2 cents
