Car is nice to drive. It feels different from the previous one. Engine is smoother, the suspension is harder i think.
The auto box i have to drive it a little more to get used, but i think i prefer the manual box. I'm used to drive the 730d with autobox but it's a different car.... in the five i think manual is the one. The equipment is much better in this one.
Drove during the night, Xenon lights are much better. The comfort seats can't be compared, much superior but i didn't found the right adjustments yet. The NAV it's the same kind the one in the seven...
Tried the X drive system in some slippery roundabouts and it's just super..... i can't wait for rainy days...

Nice. So the 3.0d engine must be really nice for you to get one after another. Wish they have diesel here in HK.

Sounds great. Any major repairs? Looks like your previous car was a complete disaster.
I am thinking of getting 550i for myself. My wife drives one and I do like it. Not sure if I should get e60 as I like the way it looks or get an f10. I am afraid E60 will look old in a year or two.

Running fine. I would advice you to take one of the last E60. All the problems fixed...
