F10 530d at my local dealer
After dropping by my local dealership to have some work done to my z4 (refer to this thread:http://e89.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=363565), there was a nice jet black 530d that had just got there that afternoon. It was being prepped at the back.
It looks waaaaaay better in real life than in those press photos. Looks even better than when I saw the F10 at the Geneva Motorshow last week. The shoulder line is just so aggressive IMO. You can't really tell from the pics, but trust me it just looks great in person. Maybe because of the black. I think black will be the best color for the F10 along with silver, especially with the wheels it had. It does look a bit conservative but I wouldn't call it boring. Very subtle. Its a car that has a lot of confidence. Doesn't need to show off as much as its rivals. The interior is the best in the segment. I really felt cocooned sitting inside. Materials felt of quality. The seats, just amazing, however I don't think those were the comfort ones. They stopped working on it while I was checking it out. I felt so bad, so didn't stay too long. Anyway, here are the pics (definitely don't do justice): Well done Bmw Can't wait to see what Bmw has done to the ///M5 T |

yea, pics definately don't do justice. I sat in the once at my local dealer...they are soo comfy. And the nav screens are HUGE, it's like a TV.
I really like the wheels, makes the car look alot more sporty. Now I have to decide....E90 M3 or 535i. |

I agree - I don't think that is a 550 but a debadged version of the lower diesel models (535 has one tailpipe on each side) great looking nonetheless Just read the original post and I think thee are supposed to be pictures of the 530d Last edited by mautzi; 03-21-2010 at 08:43 AM..

I just came back from a local dealer who has a new 530d on display. 20" wheels, beige interior. Very nice. Here's a video I made to highlight it at a glance. Cheers.

Agreed. It does seem to ride a bit high.
