Just curious, none of you seems to be interested with (2), is there a common reason?

4) BMW 2010 535(F10) (with a lot more options) 0 hand any day
then in 4 years time when you sell it I will buy it off you.
Bro, this is exactly the point.

From my experience, all those options I added actually can't be reviewed to the price when I sell it!
It is always the person/car dealer, whom accepted my car as a trade-in, is happy!
It makes me feel like wasting money, especially those tax that came with the options added!

i felt it wasnt wide enough to sit 3 people at the back comfortably. handling wise its great for car of this class but I woldnt want to be mistaken as the driver, thats just me though since I dont look like a big boss.

if you have or intend to hire a driver, (1) will probably make most sense. I took a look at the e coupe and S in mb showroom the other day, definitely look the biz.

if you do most of the driving yourself, (4) w DD will be my pick. normally I would avoid brand new technology which usually means some design faults but since we have billhk, I am sure he will be more than willing to straight things out for us.

anyway, how much say does you wife have in this?
Not much, she has her toy (E93) already, however, when I consider (1) or (2), I was thinking for her and the kids (and the biz too), but when I think of (3) or (4), I am more thinking mostly for myself

The F01 looks abit ugly compared to F10 and not luxury enough compared to S class.

Drove S class couple of times and it is very nice to drive and comfy.
If it is the car you will drive every day, i will pick 535i F10 then, cos it is much easier to park compared to S class.

Well, I have considered that, my dad already teased me to even consider (1) and (2)... he said with the way I dress myself everyday, I would definitely be considered as a chauffeur(driver), don't get me wrong, we are definitely the chauffeur when we are driving the Mrs. and the kids
So, my mind set is already adjusted, considering

I am "ok" with the handling of MB S class, I do drive my dad's S500 every now and then, but I can only say it is a good car for the passenger, and it is bloody easy to park and making a U-turn, but! It feels too much like driving a Wii car game (not even PS3!!)...
So, I think I have a battle inside me between the choice of pleasure for family and pleasure for myself

You need white cap, black tie and black suit to act as a chauffeur.
