JUST A GREAT CAR
This is my first BMW (not including my conv, which was my toy) and I must say it certainly beats my Benz and alll that preceeded it (Merecedes sinse 1986). Fast, quiet commfortable and a beauty. I have had it only two weeks but I just can't get over it. Before you drop $60M large try this thing, it's amazing.

BMW does it again!
All I can say is you owe it to yourself to drive this car. I have owned many cars and have never been happier with a vehicle. Do not listen to what you read on here. get out and let the car do the talking!
Money pit
The car I bought 535i x drive. Was a wolf in sheep's cloths. 3 weeks after I bought it. The water pump and thermostat went out. 2300$ to fix it. 3 months after that. Ignition coil and spark plugs another 900$. I can't wait for April. I'm trading it in. And going back to a Cadillac CTS 2 door coupe V.
Beauty to look at and exceptional drive
Bought it new and loaded with features both standard package and added specified to meet my requirements. Continues to be as pleasant to drive, both in Sport and in Comfort setting. Great powerful and smooth engine the line 6 double turbo. All combined with Xdrive and good summer or winter tires makes for reassuring drive under all conditions, dry, wet or snow. Driving position is excellent as is the road feel. Rear seats are good for adults but not overly spacious! Trunk is good for 4 people on a normal vacation, while if needed for utility the rear seats can be flattened out. On the negative side one can expect high cost for dealer regular maintenance, although in fairness nothing major has gone wrong for the present 85k in miles. Small annoying thing. The navigation map cannot be renewed any longer, and even early on the cost was prohibitive at $300! And other small things.
