so that makes me new, not only here, but to the 5 series in general.
like most of you, im interested in getting as much out of this car as possible.i'd like to stand on some of your shoulders, so to speak. what are the biggest bag for your buck mods that can be done to this car?
oh, its sapphire black/black, prem pac, sport pac, sport auto, logic7, nav, sat radio... if it is possible to be in love with a car, i think i may be... or maybe its just lust.
thanks!

Congratulations on a beautiful car!The best bang for your buck modifications would be the Sprint Booster, BMC Highflow filter, and RPi Scoop.

Congrats! Best bang for your buck for a 535 would be a Juice Box 3. Sprint Booster is great too. Tons of exterior mods possible too.

hi welcome to the community!
535 is an awesome beast because it's TURBO'ED!
check out n54tech.com for more information. i have a 335i which i've chipped using jb+ for ~$250 that has totally changed the car.
first things i would do in this order:
jb+ or jb3 chip (n54tech.com)
rpi hood scoop & BMC Highflow filter (buy both from trinity autosport)
exhaust (maybe)
that's really all you need in terms of performance. then for looks obviously get some new rims from me, acute performance.
let me know.

no need for a sprint booster if you get a jb+ or jb3
if you get a jb+, consider getting a bavarian tool(BT) to erase any tuner/manipulation codes before service, so you don't void your warranty
