First off hello im the new guy!
ITs going to be black on black. Are there any suggestions you guys have or things I need to know being a first time BMW owner? Also if someone here has one leased could you please tell me how much monthly.
And there is no other difference than the engine between the 535 and the 528 right?
One last thing, is the 09 going to look any different? Because if it is Ill just wait another month and get that one.
Thanks guys hopfully soon I can upload some cool pics too

First off, 
to the forum and GL with you upcoming purchase.
09 will not look different.
I am currently leasing my 535i. PM me if you want the details.
Definitely do your research and figure out what options you want, personally I think premium and sports package and the IPOD USB adapter are a must, others will probably chime in for the NAV option as well. Don't think comfort access or logic 7 are deal breakers, but if you have the spare change, it's a nice bonus.
As for the engines...here's a link for engine break downs: 535i is a bit different

The search bar in the upper right hand corner is a useful tool when researching things....GL and keep us posted...

The 535 comes standard with xenon headlights and a permanent grin on the face.
