Good Points

Excellent power, quiet but makes itself known when you stomp on it, nice dashboard layout, timeless exterior styling, smooth sporty ride not harsh at all, car communicates to the driver what it's doing


Bad Points

Other people stereotyping BMW owners, cup holders aren't the best but they are adequate, exhaust a bit too quiet upgraded mine to be a little louder so I could hear the car to shift when I had the stereo turned up, I can't find the time to drive it enough, ummmmmmmm


General Comments

If you are the person who wants it all, then this BMW 540i V8 is the car for you. Luxury Sport. Most cars advertise themselves as sporty cars, but they aren't...not like the 540/6. You've got muscle to get this 2 ton car moving fast off the line, and muscle to accelerate as needed at higher speeds.

This car definitely does not ride like a boat nor does it have a harsh ride. It communicates perfectly with the driver so you know exactly what is happening with the road. You can drive this car so smoothly and quietly that people won't realize you have a stick shift, yet instantly jump on it and dart through traffic to your hearts content.

If you are considering getting one, just do it!! The first time you take this baby around a corner and get on it a little bit with out the traction control, you will have a permanent grin on your face.
