My feelings as well. I've had three 5-series BMWs, two 540i and a 530; years, 1995, 1998 and 2001.
They're great cars, but not $20-$30,000 greater than my Acura TL.

On the other hand for the $$ "mid-50's" you could get a G35, IS350 or V6 Accord and good used miata or S2000 for fun days. I won't argue that the 5 series is a better car but not $25K better. Exactly where (other than in the Valet line) are you going to use its capablilites in most real world driving? In the valet line you would be better served with a 7 series, LS600 or S series.

The Best Car in World Today
Trully the best and fastest sedan I have ever owned. Any sedan in the mid 50s that can get from 0-60 in 5.5 seconds in my book is far above average. My 535 handles extremely well and performs every bit as well as advertised. I highly recommend this car to any one. I am a car person who has rebuilt a muscle car and owned many great cars in my 63 years. This is probably the best car in the world today.
