Well I just bought an 04 530i tonight and I wasn't able to drive it home since I asked them to detail the car and put a tank full of gas before I drive it home. It was already detailed but I wanted it real clean. I am excited and looking forward to driving around in this car. I will still need to read the manual to at least learn more about the car and it's electronics (idrive settings). The car doesn't have all the options but it's ok. It's good I found this forum since the previous forums where I posted have little traffic for e60. Just reading here at this forum and I am already learning more about the car and of course it's problems. But I don't mind I have an extended warranty for 4yrs and at least it gives me peace of mind.

Mind if I ask how much you paid for your car? Only reason why I'm asking is because I was considering on trading my 04 530i for the 07 335 coupe. Just wanted to know what the market value is.

Market price is still high but I was able to haggle the price with the dealer. The car is in a great condition. It's still like brand new (smell of new car, interior and exterior) with a small scratch below the front bumper and it was it.

Great looking ride. Did the tints come with the car from the dealer?
