My Ride: 530d M Sport. It has Heads Up Display...need I say more...
Default

Well, after owning a couple of E46s I took the plunge and bought a nice E60 530d.

The spec was unbelievable and got a very good deal on the price too.

I have a little bit of experiance too with modding BMs, and my previous E46 330d sport was Performance BMW featured.

I'm from the UK, so if anyone is around....

Hope you like:











Have already started the mods: CF badges all round, some nice new halo bulbs and a tinted it on Friday.

Feel free to comment...

Nice pictures. I would add M5 mirrors and trunk finisher to that mod list.

LOL... M5 mirrors are definitely on the list, but they are just so damn expensive. Also, am very surprised it didn't come with a small lip spoiler on the rear boot lid.
