Yeah, i'm starting to regret getting a 2.5l instead the 3ltr. Little more fuel consuption but can go head to head with the civic type-r ...

Actually, when I was doing my research my 530 got a little better mileage than a comparable 525 even though it had less HP. This is because we have fairly heavy cars and with less power you use more energy to get it moving. That was more the reason I got a 530 instead (my goal at the time was to replace my guzzling SRT Jeep with something comfortable and fuel efficient)

Have either of you seen the movie 'Taxi', 'Taxi 3', or 'The Transporter'? It seems to be a Luc Besson thing were he has some wild driver that causes the passenger to vomit... Reminds me of that! hahaha...

wow. the 525i is really underpowered.
My 1998 Mustang GT had 225 HP with 245 torque and I thought it was a fast car back then.
