Looks awesome and very clean! Am wondering how it compares to the 330 you had? Pretty different cars I take it especially considering it was an e46. I believe they had the exact same engine in your 330. Actually the 05 330i was the first to get the n52 engine with 260hp and that is what is in your 06 530 so it will be interesting to see what you think.

How do you find the body roll in the 5er? Not sure where you are at but did you get the Active roll stablization or dynamic drive as they call it elsewhere?

congrats and enjoy!
I absolutely love everything about the drive of the 5er. The e46 was a little more rough, and had a more direct feel with the road. The 5 is more refined, but also handles amazing. The power is stretched all the way through the gears in the 5, while my 3 was pretty quick on the first few gears, but lagged later on.

Two totally different cars, for 2 different eras of my life. The 330ci zhp was an awesome car, but now I feel a sedan fits my lifestyle more. I feel like a little kid again lol.

Very nice car indeed!! Very clean and tidy

Sorry maybe a stupid question on here, why you've got M-sport kit and sport seats but with standard alloy wheels and steering wheel?

Not a stupid question at all. For the 5 series, the wheels that are shown on my car are the SPORT package wheels. The M-tech package is basically the body kit on the car I believe. Someone might want to chime in to help out clarify.
