I have an '05 545i in Black with the sport package. Thanks for the info though.

But back to the topic...

So, I guess there are no tips or cool hints for the 545i?

Reading the posts in the FAQ forum should help you get familiar with some of the more common things that new owners might want to learn.

Aside from just reading and reading the other forums, you may want to look at a thread about "neat tricks" that was started a while ago:

Welcome to the forums and good luck with your new ride!

I gave you cool hints--the performance insights. I can tell you how to get to the secret menus. I can tell you how DTC, etc. works. I can tell you what happens when you switch to manual shifting. Post back if interested.
