Loaner 535i

So they loaned me a 535i. I like it. The automatic tranny is freaking quick, its a pretty sweet sedan.

I heard they're nice.... How does it feel compared to the 335? Comfort and power?

More comfortable, its a smooth power delivery, especially with the auto. The 5 series is a nice ride, I love it, I want one.

I actually like the "sun burst" looking brake lights they got on the 535i compared to other 5s. That's one of the ways I can tell from far away No dual exhausts like the 335i though, they just left them as they were before, to the left.

I was actually thinking of trading in my E90 for a 535... Depends on the deal they give me I guess...

Is it silver on black from BOD? I put the rascal through the motions a month ago if it is. Felt a little floaty to me. Loved the seats and the extra room.

535i is a beautiful car. If I needed a 4 door, that's what I'd get without a doubt. I am surprized that your dealership uses them as loaners.
