Hello All! New member here, introducing myself and my car.
I recently was lucky enough to find another member who was considering selling a nicely maintained and relativity low mileage E61. I had been looking for a new wagon for a few months and after losing out on 2 cars it was a lucky break. Two weeks ago I took possession: a 2008 535Xi Touring with a rare 6-speed.
I can't believe how customizable the car is. It took me two weeks to figure out all the function and take a first pass at coding my preferences.
Now with new Sumitomo summer tires mounted(bye bye runflats), new coils and MHD stage 1 tune(after acquiring a dirt cheap Android tablet), I am settling into 5-series Nirvana!
Coming up next.... Window tint Remove tired clear bra Brakes and oil Transmission and differential oil Fix tailgate glass release gremlin Fix driver thigh support gear
5series.net already becoming a key resource as I pour over the car. Thank you all in advance for the knowledge and looking forward to contributing!

Really nice car, I like the blue/beige personally myself. I also recently acquired a new to me E61 (try this again). Pictures forthcoming and a little write up
