I brought home a Monaco Blue w / Beige Leather, Premium Package and Heated Seats. Yesterday, it is very nice upgrade from my 03 330i (Sport, Premium, Heated Seats).

Nice car, enjoy it. In terms of performance, how does it compare to the 330?
The 330 was much faster more of a sports car, whereas the 525 is a lot smoother. I wanted something a little more luxurious and hope in a few years to buy a older 911 for my occasional need of a sports car.

My Ride: 2006 550i SMG
Welcome aboard! I was originally going to order Monaco Blue...its a great color, but ended up with the same color combo my 330 was. I have plenty of power with the 550 vs. 330 but I do miss the turning performance the 3er has.
