My Ride: 2007 530i Sport
Default 3rd BMW, new 5-Series.net Member

Hey all, I've been loitering around here for a few months as I knew I would be getting back into another BMW.

Just stumbled upon a beautiful 2007 530i with Sport Package, 6-Speed Manual, Navigation, and Nightvision. Black with Black and Gray interior, with Comfort Seats. High option car, couldn't pass it up.

Previous BMW's that I've owned;

1988 BMW 325, 2-door Black 5-speed manual - an ex-girlfriend took it with her to Cleveland back in the late 1990s and wish I would have never lost track of that car.

1998 BMW 528i Black/Black, 5-Speed manual with Sport Package. The wife rear-ended me and I didn't have the cash to pay 2 (!!!) deductables to the insurance company so I traded it in. Should have just kept driving it and had it repaired - it's somewhere in Fort Wayne, Indiana area now. Car was perfect except for the bumper scrape in the rear.

So, Hello to all! If anyone knows the location of those other two, I'd at least give history on them, or perhaps be interested in buying them back!!!

Welcome to the forum. You won't be disappointed with an E60.

Thank you! So far, I am very impressed with the updates in technology. The E60 is light years ahead of the E39 with styling, technology, and performance. I know that the car is 300-something lbs. lighter than my E39 was, but it "feels" heavier and somehow more connected to the road. I love it. I actually am excited to go drive my car every chance I get. I haven't felt this way about a car in along time!
