Sounds like the guy didn't have an E60...

If and when I get around to writing anything (which, by the time I get a car I have a feeling everything will already be written by others), I imagine I'll write it as a comparison between the F10 and the E60 instead of just talking about my impressions of the F10.

On another note, when reading that thread, did anyone notice that gatoman39 is using a picture of me for his avatar? Stay thirsty, my friends!

I did notice that...I asked gatoman to take a pic of his rear suspension as I ma curious to know is there is a spring there or just an air bag/post...he ended up posting a pic of the front suspension from his 550i, apparently he quenched his thirst all too well

That'd be interesting to read. I keep reading different accounts of how the F10 compares to the E60.

Any similar reviews for a 535i after a few thousand miles out there?

I like my f10 better than either of my e60's. My only complaint is that it is too quiet for my taste.
