The luxury line is not bad. Wheels seem similar to current non-M-Sport models. Didn't like modern line in f30 and don't like it in f10.

Wasn't that an issue on the e60 twin turbo 535i and not the f10 twin scroll 535i? The f10 535i engine is completely different from the e60 535i that had issues.

How about a Mazda mx-5 (Miata). They are a boat load of fun to drive and a lot less than $60k.

This "old" guy prefers the f10 because of size, handling and appearance over the 7 series. My decision was 6 cylinder vs 8 cylinder. Choice of 6 cylinder was also not because I am "old" (60).
