My Ride: 2004 BMW 520i E60 in Amethyst Gray

Bit of contradiction? You say the F10 handling is good and maybe better than E60 but then you say you need to add the 6 bars and lower car to make it feel like E60???
Slightly confusing....
Also, think Danny has had the E60 and he also is driving the F10 and he can probably give the best comparison?!!!

what I mean is our e60 pre-lci or lci needs the 6 bars to match the F10 stiffness
the F10 is built very solid.

for a 1.85 ton car it drives very well.
the F10 is about 250kg more than my lci and 300kg to my pre lci
I like to see MB 1.85 ton cars handle like the F10.

I have tested the car 2 times and 2nd time I took it around sai kung twisty roads drive at 70+

havent yet tried the f10 but really dislike the handling of the 5gt. interestingly, the 7er w the same chasis was a joy to drive and felt 5cm shorter all round.
no that not true.
I tested the 528i on very twisty roads and the handling is good and if not better than our e60, the car is much faster and feel much more soild on the fast corners.
to get close to that feeling on our e60 you need to add all the 6 bars and lower the car.
there is 1 thing that will never fix or get better and that is the computer contro streeling wheel :thumbsdown:
this is on all new BMW which I, keith and KC hate.
I agree on the size, it dose feel much bigger than the 2.5cm all round, it almost feel like driving a 7er. :thumbsdown:

It need mods to look good on the out side.
our e60 dont need mods and still looks sporty.
here are some just to refresh our minds of the F10 mods.
