I live in Denver and have done fine since 2007 with a RWD E60 545 and snow tires. I do also have a Ford Explorer for days when conditions just suck. But really, on days like that I just try to stay...

I think I follow your logic - but there has been a 535 in the past also; I believe it was an E34 V8.

You could add the M exhaust to the 535 and improve its sound dramatically for around 2 grand, and still be way ahead of the 550 price.

The 550 is awesome fast, no doubt. Money no object, there's...

I feel like I could do without that option in particular. Certainly cool, but it might be a parlor trick that starts to feel normal after a while. You get the rear view camera anyway, right?

He may have been trying to sell you a late 2013 build instead of having you wait for a 2014. The 550 gets a new engine for 2014, and it has 45 more HP, 25 more lb/ft of torque (IIRC) and better...

I tend to agree that no matter how much I like the F10 (which is a lot), I won't be able to pull the trigger on one until I see and drive the F80.

A white 535 M-Sport is truly a great looking car.

Black sapphire metallic is a cool color for BMW also, but unfortunately you can't get an F10 with M-Sport in that color. At least not right now....

Purists who don't love F10's foray into uber-refinement: what BMW is the PUREST

I think you'll get a lot of E39 responses on this 5 series board, but if you could pose this question to the whole site, I feel like you'd get lots of E46 ZHP fans.

This is confusing. It appears that BMW is going to make us order the Executive Package in order to get beyond the standard audio. I don't think it was always like that. Kinda crappy.

I clay mine once a year - it probably could use more, but that's the time I have. I think generally, the more you park outside, the more need you have.
