You're at the first stages of an interesting driving phenomenon: the more time you spend with the car, the more you'll feel that what used to extraordinary is really just common behavior for the E60. Controls fall to your hand logically, steering is precise, quick and accurate. Take a basic driving course with your local Chapter of BMWCCA, and you'll really learn to appreciate what you've got!

I think the DRLs are the best feature...along with the covered fog lights (easier to wash). Great car you lucky dog!

Buy yourself some black mats. I had mine from new at zero cost as I knew the cream mats just wouldn't last.
Attachment 40931
Here's a pic showing the mats and the 8 memory buttons - just under the slot for the CD player.

Wise idea on the mats...wish I would have thought of that at the time. When these get too dirty I'll buy some black ones!

Here are the 6 memory buttons in the US models showing the mode and AM/FM. They work only with nav destinations, phone numbers, and radio/entertainment selections. Simply press and hold a button for > 2 seconds. A cool feature is to lightly brush the buttons, their function is displayed.

Re Logic 7, I put a \_/ curve (more like +5,+2,+1,0,+2,+4,+5) on my EQ and raised the Bass & Treble a bit. I think it sounds good but its a "warmer" tone than older models with L7.

Richard - thanks for clarifying - I'll check them out

You should go back and but the 550 but this time make sure you negotiate that the Bow comes WITH the car...

Hey, we should set a SoCal BMW meet one of these days as I'd like to check out your car and it would be fun to drive different variants of the E60 (responsibly of course) ![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)
