The fact that when I am stuck behind someone doing 60 mph in the left lane out on the interstate (who refuses to move over after I patiently wait, then give a polite flash of the brights), and I am forced to go around on the right, and like the @#%*head that they are, they then try to speed up to prevent me from passing them, my 545 completely BLOWS THEM OUT OF THE WATER and I whip right by them with incredible 60-110 accelleration. EF You, buddy!

Make sure that once you are by them you hit your windshield washers (and be sure that your headlights are on). They'll get the message (or at least be annoyed).
It's worth washing your car later.

Actually I dunno... its a whole package... If I had to chose... sportyness and driving feel of the car. Looks come in on a close second.

The interior has a calming effect on me.....simple, modern, meditative.
The Logic 7 sound system is unreal.....what a way to drive!

Love the fact that the car is stable as a rock going 80 mph with a flat tire...

My 545i is therapeutic. For example today I left the office early and went for 40 mile detour. Fortunately I did not hit traffic. Even when I do, the time I spend in the car relaxes me. The surroundings of the cockpit are calming and simple. I love how she corners, but the all time high is (as already mentioned) the absolutely incredible feeling of going 60-120mph in a blink of an eye.

That effortless silky smooth V8 mated to an absolutely incredible gearbox. I think I?ll go out on a limb here and say that you Stepronic owners don?t know what you are missing.

Well I'm new here, not really I come here everyday but I decided to join today even though I don't own a car, very broke college student! . But the reason why I love this car it just the share beauty of the design! I mean you will never mistake this car for anything else than a BMW, and I love Bangle for that! lol

BMW is a way of life for me . The car is like another member of your family(your baby). And you know how most of us you treat our children..and what do you love about your children?...whatever they are your flesh...
