2004 BMW 5 Series 530i review from North America
"One amazing ride!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The passenger side cup-holder broke at about (?) and the dealer fixed it with no charge.
General comments?
The car handles like a dream. My Mercedes E320 handles like a boat compared to my 530i. Along with great handling, it rides very smooth and is very quiet and comfortable.
