I recently purchased a 2002 530i and although I've had it less than a week, I gotta say from first impressions this is the best car I've ever owned. It's amazing how responsive the motor is for a 6 cylinder. And the handling, wow, it hugs the road so well even in the tightest of turns. My only fear is speeding tickets because it's so smooth at higher speeds, I don't realize how fast I'm going until I look at the speedometer or notice how much slower the other cars are traveling.

Even the dealership experience was great. They were very professional and courteous. Talk about a "no hassle" experience.

When I get my digital camera working I'll post some pictures. The car is just so awesome looking. Black exterior with tan leather interior. Great upgraded rims too.

Consider me a *happy* new member of the BMW club!!!
