Buying 2nd hand E60

[hunter]

it's plausible that camry might have better performance...but it can't beat the way BMW drive. Underpower or not, the feel that you get when you are behind the wheel, is different bro....just my 2 cents

Agree. The feeling is better than Audi. BMW = Betul-betul Memikat Wanita!

You do not drive BMW like camry.
Floor the pedal until RPM reach 6500 rpm and listen to the engine. WOW !!!
i6 engine power is at top RPM range.

You are right. I didn't do that. I shall try it.... BMW = Best Man Win!

Guys, how many keys should i received for my car? I mean, the original one, when u first bought the car. I just want to make sure my dealer provides me with the correct number of keys. If kurang, then i want to ask him to reduce the sales price further.

Yes, pre-2006 model comes with two diamond shaped keys plus one flat one while post 2006 comes in two rectangular keys and one flat one. The flat key cannot be used to open the locks for the glove box and trunk. This key is not intended for constant use.

would really love to find a minty E60 530d; just browse through used car dealer and the price range from RM13xk for a year 2004-2005. Seems like the price of the oil burner ain't holding that well compare to the petrol variant. Any reason for it; how's the reliability of the diesel 5 series?

There are certainly good and bad things about diesel If diesel is indeed on the plus side, it would've been the mainstream instead of petrol. Maybe you can check with our VP Mr. Dzul as he drives one?

530d

After looking for 525 more than 5 months, I finally got myself 530d instead of 525. With full spec and less wear & tear compare to other 5ier, this lorry engine is *a superb choice and the roadtax cost can be offset with cheaper oil consumption and less *wear and tear. So, if I go for 525, basically I pay more for less spec, but if I go for 530d, I pay less for more - CBU some more. I allocate 10K - 20K for part replacement and M5 convertion. But one think for sure, this lorry engine never hesitate to take you 250kmph and my wife didn't realize that she was driving more than 200KM/h and immediately bring down to 110KM/H during my trip to Singapore recently. So, there is huge different between Japan and Europe car.No regret so far.
