Well, its been a little over 3 months since I purchased the 530. I originally got the car for my wife with the idea that I would get to drive it on weekends. That didn't last long - after a few days of driving the car I decided the car was going to be mine! I gave my wife the choice of getting another car of her choice and she decided just to drive my Jeep GC for a while. I am in love with the 530. I know others tout the 540 for its straight line speed, but I'm happy with the 6 cylinder engine. BTW, the C230K is still going strong - my daughter went to Denver and back a few times and I recently replaced the mass air meter (hopefully many more miles of trouble free driving ahead).

Like some above, I don't care for the body style of the new BMWs. Except, the 6 series is a thing of incredible beauty. So, what's next carwise - an E39 M5 in a year or so!!
