my dad is considering trading in his e39 528im for a 740 sport package. I'm all for it. we hit the dealer last week and did a test drive on a black on sand one, oh man, its badass. i already told him if he buys it i'm stealing the m-pars . thoughts- ridiculously comfotable and roomy, back seat is huge, dual climate, etc etc, you cant go wrong. perhaps swapping in a 6 speed would be the next step! haha
