My lease on my 535 is up in mid-November. I have loved driving this car. Many of you may remember that 6 weeks after I took delivery of this car, I was hit by a teenage kid who ran a redlight. The car took 4 months to repair and over $40,000 in parts and labor. I must say that the car has been near flawless since then.
On Saturday, I picked up a 2005 E55 and it is absolutely amazing. The car seems to have endless amounts of power. I briefly consider an E60 M5, but I wanted more TQ and better fuel efficiency. I sacrificed on the fact that the E55 is automatic. This is my first automatic car since the first car I have ever driven.... a 1979 Mercury Zephyr.
Happy and safe driving to everyone. I am sure that I will be back in a BMW in the future.

My Ride: 545I and a half dozen other rides
The Mercedes is a great car. Only issue is the performance parts are expensive. For everyday driving I still like the benz and to me the navi is easier to use.
Have fun with the new toy!
