If you're concerned about finances, then bear in mind that your insurance, fuel and possibly tire costs will all go up with the 535i as well. IMHO the E60 is too heavy for the NA6, but it is more than enough for most daily driving. So think about what your priorities are.

Yes.
IMHO, I would pull off a nice deal on a 550i. For the past few days I've been driving the 335xi as a loaner, great car w/ horrible mpg...but I'm sure it's my driving habit.. The bi-turbo engine complements the 3-series very well, but I question it on a 5. Good luck!
