Good choice! You wont be disappointed. You will find that the 5 performs better than your C and it's just as luxurious and more spacious to boot. You aren't giving up anything...
I'll be going back to the 5 too, as soon as I can afford to...

I got words from the dealer that a 535i may come out in April, thats the same bi turbo engine currently used on the 335i. One problem though, engine is new, car has to be sold at MSRP, which kinda sucks. I could have gone with a 550i with the money, but until I was offered for a 530i.....price was so good there was no second thought I went with it. So yeah I ordered a 2007 530i with Sport package, Premium package, SMG, Power rear sunshade, Park Distance Control, NAV, and the M-tech body kit installed. Black on Black. I am already searching for a set of black wheels, a black grille, and the AC lip spoiler for it. It should be bad ***....cant wait to get the car.
Drex, I am glad you still remember my door pin surrounds....those are *****ing arent they? Hahah.
Anyways, I will stick around for a little bit til I get the new car set and stone, I will post some pics by then. Til then, take care and be safe out there.

5-series is nice but IMHO, the new M3 sedan is nicer
"The 2008-2009 BMW M3 sedan — the first four-door M3 since the E36 — won't look like a regular 3-Series sedan. Instead, it have the same headlights, grille, and front fascia as the two-door 3-series and M3 coupe."

Hahah hey I still have my surrounds that says "IKOMPRZ"...and they come with the car just in case you are my buyer. I am glad you guys like em....in fact I love them myself. hehe.
Oh and I had a guy who came to me and said "Your $hi!t is gonna fade out in a month no doubt about it and I rather save my $30 in my Savings..."
I guess no one has ever been as regretful as this guy...I feel sorry for him. Looks like all your surrounds made it through the first months huh?!...and the 2nd...and the 3rd.......and what is it now? the 24th? HAHHAHA
The new M3 is nice, I heard its a V8 too. But I can't wait that long....I have been waiting for the 5 for toooooo long...Drex knows huh?! hahah.
