My Ride: Currently in a 2003 e46 M3 Cab Waiting to get a 535d Sport with individual and all the extras...
Default

Well after a total 5 month wait (had to wait for wk9 ) I finally got my 535d sport this weekend.

My Pics


Interior is about the nicest I've ever had, the orange glow works really well with the polar grey leather. The Piano gloss is superb also -really deep finish. The leather tran tunnel looks nice, the 2 tone doors look really nice, and the stitchwork is perfect. Overall I would say that despite the fact I know it's gonna be a bitch to maintain I love it

Car is exactly as many other 535d owners have described, so I won't bore you wih the same old. The rear wing is really nice and subtle without being invisible. The ride on the Goodyear runflats is way better then my e46 M3 cab on 19"s so I currently don't see what all the fuss is about.

it has been mentioned before, but for the benefit of anyone getting an e60 soon COMFORT SEATS & LOGIC 7 are fantastic !!!

Oh, and as ISUK mentions, the new carbon black does seem to be more blue then before - but i think it looks better - it still has purple in the mix as well as black and brings out the shape of the e60 really well. I always though CB on my M3 was a bit too subtle - but thats not the case now

My best wishes, Olly 2000.

Can I be rude and ask how much the Piano Gloss Black interior was as an option?
