My Ride: '04 545iS 6 spd, bought new via eBay, 11/05; Blk/Gry, Cold, L7, PDC, BMW Rear seatcover for pets.
First "Bumwa" was a new 1971 2002. High performance 5s since 1987. Beamer motorcycles too, currently on an 07 BMW K1200 GT; also a Moto Guzzi 1000 SP III.
Congrats and welcome. I remember, as if it were yesterday, when I traded my e190 Mercedes for a new 87 535iS (the original sport 5), and the solidity of the ride, the moment I pulled out of the lot. Wow, another whole class of vehicle (Prior to that, there were 3 series and 2002s.)
You'll enjoy it; it's a grown-up's car.
Cheers,
Ray Hull

You will have the feeling for a long time. I have my e60 for about 6 months now, I still feel some excitement when I start the engine every morning.
