1st time Owner Review

Originally tried for a 2007 M5 but it was a no-go. Ended up getting my '13 Luxury Line 328i F30 which I've had for just about 2 mon. It was a bad start (battery, fuel pump, injectors, mass airflow sensor were bad) but I was able to get it squared away. I'm still learning but I've made a couple long trips and a trip from FL to PA and back last mon.and I'm glad I got it. Driving is really enjoyable again, love it and love the color (liquid blue metallic).The only things I would have changed would be the seats are a lil lacking on the cushioning and the rear should have came with a lil more aggressive look like the front end. No big deal though. I'm really happy with it and am looking forward to enjoying many more trips with it and learning.

I'm surprised you went from looking at a screaming V10 to a turbo 4. Other than that, Congrats!

Thanks fellas! Changing lanes hasn't been this fun in quite a while lol. The V10 was "too old" to finance, so I shopped around, color caught my eye and rolled with it.

If anyone is or knows someone looking, the '07 M5 V10 is in Jax, FL. Check it out at: JaxExports.com. Maybe someone else has better luck.

Congratulations and welcome.

How many miles does your vehicle have at the moment? The problems reported earlier are not unusual with higher mileage vehicles.

If you plan to drive a lot, a suspension upgrade is always worth considering.
