I have been going back and forth for the last three months on what car to get. I tried M35's and 45's, Acura RL and the new 535i and 528i. I was having a hard time cause' I love the way the BMW's ride and look but couldn't pull the trigger on 50K or 60K. Then....a 2005 545i became available with the color I wanted with low miles. HUD, Cold, Nav, Logic 7... I drove it and fell in love. I-drive is no problem at all. Cup Holders? Interior storage room? Who cares? When I'm in sports mode with my foot down that stuff really doesn't matter. Love the heads up display. Didn't know it was there till the guy I bought it from asked how I liked it during our test drive (I had polarized glasses on) took em' off and couldn't believe it! The logic 7 is awesome, especially with SACD's. I see now why people pay the extra cash, the driving experience in beyond compare. :)

Congrats and welcome. You chose well, grasshopper... ;)

Congratulations on the car! That was a great choice!
