Nice review and comment on the Nikasil issue with the car. I'm also contemplating a 530i with 5 speed. Any suggestions on what to buy? I live in Los Angeles.

Much obliged!

I have a 530i that I purchased in NC that (allegedly) had the engine replaced. I want to verify this... who would I call? Does BMW keep these records? Is there a VIN to engine matching process I could use? Other?? Thanks in advance for educating me.
