My Ride: X3 | 3.0 | 6-speed manual
My lease will be up in April, 2007. Depending on how trouble-free the car has been, and what the financials look like at that time, I'll either turn it in or buy it. If I turn it in, who knows what I'll want by then.
Maybe I should get on an M6 convertible list just in case . . .

I will probably keep mine for about a year, but definitely before the warranty expires 
. I love the cars but I am not going to risk it after the expiration as I am having some issues right now

My Ride: 535D Sport Auto
I'm suprised at how many plan to keep their cars for more than five years!
I suppose its the best thing to do really because when you do eventually change you'll go from an outdated model to a new high tech one.
When I changed from my 530d to 535d apart from it being faster and having a different colour scheme the car itself was just the same and the novelty of owning the new E60 wasn't quite the same as the first one. Still love it though!
