It came with 231 HP. 09/2006.

Hi folks,

Newbie here with my first post. Here is our recently acquired '06 530XiT. It's jet black with gray dakota leater, dark poplar trim, premium package, nav, bluetooth, sat radio, adaptive xenons... I've added weathertech floor mats, black grills, tint, corner overlays and smoked sidemarkers. New wheels are 18" TSW Nurburgring with H&R spacers in rear, Conti DWS tires. I'll be blacking out the chrome window trim ASAP.

I'm considering lowering (H&R front springs) but have read mixed reviews on the ride quality. Any insights on that would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Brad

Just a little update. I recently had my car lowered and the M spoilers fitted. I also had it remapped.
