Congrats on your 530........I'm sure you'll love it as much as the rest of us. I find the 530 has enough power for me, as well........until my lease is over, and I step up to the 550i, lol.........be sure to post some pics when you take delivery.......

Get ready to grin

Congratulations and welcome. I love my 530i with Steptronic, and drive it much more than my M3. Plenty of power and behaves like a luxury car should.

Thanks guys. I can't imagine how some of you were able to wait 2 months. Mine is less than a weeks wait and it's already hard for me!

The time goes fast. I've been waiting for several months. Good things come to those who wait.

I am new to the BMW world. Reading through your discussions has helped very much. Thanks to all of you for sharing your info.

Does anyone know if BMW might replace the 530 with a 535 any time soon, kind of like what they did with the 545 to 550. thanks in advance.

They will replace the engine, but not the name. It will still be 530 but with 255HP. From what I know production starts March so delivery of car will be around May.
