..., it is ..... hmm.. i can't say just one... there are 3.... i don't like my rims (the 16 inch std 525i rims), i don't like the regular non xenon lights, and i don't like the base sound system.

My 2004 Galant has better bass than the std bmw 5 series sound system....

The lights and rims are easy to fix if you have the cash.

Logic 7 however, is something I don't like to think about. It just makes me want to do bad things to myself for not getting it.

All these dislikes can be fixed though.

agree w/chicosy. if you want to upgrade your sound system, you may want to pm/email herb. if there is one thing i don't like about my e60...it's the dealer !

What I dislike about my E60 is that it is a 520i instead of an M5!

see the thing is my dad is fine with all of the things i don't like except the sound. He doesn't want to do anything to it because he is concerned about the warranty.

Depending on his age you can spark some interest in him by telling him he got old and should take a risk sometime like he used to. You can usually suck people in that way unless they never took risks.

The only thing that I dislike my E60 is that, I love it too much that I hate to have it abused by the valet parking guys... (Which I have to do it everyday!)

When I go to work, I have my car parked by the valet parking people near my office building. But as they are just doing parallel parking on the street meters on a slope w/ around 30 degrees, they're kinda destroying my transmission everyday, plus the crub marks.

And the worst part is, on the second week since my car was new, they made a light scratch on the door side!
But seems like I have no choice besides parking with them because there are only 2 parkings near my office building, one is them, and the other one cost me USD800-$1160 each month!
