Kelly Blue Book picks the 2005 BMW 5 Series (E60) as among the top 10 cars to hold there value, with the least amount of depreciation. Also selected #1 in Luxury class.
This tells a lot about how the car is really considered . A big plus for our favorite car on this board, and brings to the public eye what we already know and appreciate. What say that to the 5 Series critics.

On a side note: Last month, I sat next to the Sr. Editor from Kelly Blue book on a plane from San Francisco to Orange County. She was coming back from the new A6 launch. She wasn't as impressed with the A6 as she was with the BMW. This report is exactly what I herd from her when we talked about her opinion on the E60.
