I currently own a 2005 330ci ZHP ... I absolutely love this car ...

Now i too am looking for something bigger .... How does the 530i compare .... Any feeling of lack of power? I love the power of mine but a v8 seems to be an overkill especially with gas prices so high ...

Did you compare a 545i vs 530i???

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.

Congrats RobbyRH10!

I too made the switch from a 3 to a 5. I certainly enjoy the additional room. My buddies enjoy the fact that we can now haul 4 sets of golf clubs and all cruise to the golf course in one car,...in style!
