I love my I-drive. What can I say, I'm a techno-geek!!

Yeah I know most will claim the I-Drive is the worst technical piece of crap ever invented...

I think it's simple, easy, and to the point. Plus I don't have to stop my car to use the nav like in almost every other car that has it!


Another thing, I love how I can make corners that most other cars would be in a ditch trying to perform!

oh man i just got a loaner from the dealer. they ask me if i want a x5 or 3 series. I had an x5 last time and i seriously HATE suv's so i was like i want the 3. I get a 2009 328xi sedan. This thing has NOTHING inside. There are like 20 buttons in a 1 foot by 1 foot radius. Its so damn confusing. The idrive is SOOOO easy to work and i love having it after this pile of shit 328. (sorry to anyone who has a 328) i just personally dont think anything about the sedan is nice. The 335 coupe is a different story. Sedan = 5er, not slow, stupid, little 3 sedan.

Idrive FTW

When I had my E60's it was ARS, active steering and HUD. The first two make a 4000lb sedan feel more like a go-kart, and HUD is one of those things (like active steering) that you won't miss if you've never had it, but when you have, it's very hard to live without them.

I figured since there was a "What do you like least about your e60" I would twist this one around, and get some positive replies instead of all the negativity.


I love the fact I have the 545i V8 engine

I love how when I hold down the unlock key fob all my windows roll down simultaneously.

I love my Heads-Up display!

I love putting my car in DS with DSC off and hitting the gas, and listening to my tires squealing with power.

I love the triple action signal! MAKES IT SO SIMPLE!


Just a few I have plenty more but didn't wanted to take all the good replies! Haha
Power, especially with the LSD. I had an E46 M3 before my 545i, power was not a let down at all

Handling, amazing for the size of the car. ARS works very well.

Active steering, makes the car so easy to drive.

Comfort seats, never sat in a more comfortable car seat

Heated steering wheel

Looks, the car is distinctive and has presence. I always noticed E60's coming the other way before I bought my car

Best balance of a roomy luxury car with almost sports car performance in the price range.

Reading all these threads about what makes the e60 a lovely automobile is starting to make me tear-up. I love this car man.
