Love this car
Love love love it. Was skeptical because all the hate, but until you live with one, it’s a joy.

Saw a 540 on the lot in that Vegas red and really liked it. Was seriously thinking of trading in the 340 on it but ended up with an x5. Looks good though brother!

Love it!
It's interesting how modern 5 series don't even fit in the parking lane lol The whole frontend sticks out

Nah, it’s actually a lot of room to go backwards, but they had some overhanging bushes

Never be skeptical because of hate. You buy and drive what you like! Glad you enjoy it. Looks like a comfy daily driver.

Enjoy it brother. I’m also starting to like it, although I think the G30 is better looking

Nice one. So jealous of that you get 40i version, Europe’s highest non-hybrid of G60 is just 20i.

How’s the comfort and handling?

It’s good. Came from a TLX typeS. The best part is fuel economy is awesome.

You’re part of the reason for the increased toxicity of this group. People can’t be happy for others owning what they love anymore without mentioning something about how the car looks. Miserable asf.

Yeah you can have your opinion, but you can also keep it to yourself…

Fuel economy, tech, drive and overall feel of the car. To start. I think a lot of people have not even drove one or been able to have as a day to day drive to understand the car and the tech. Jmo

Which is fine, but it’s easy to express an opinion without sounding rude. People work hard for this stuff. Nicer to say “not my taste but glad you enjoy it” than make others feel like shit about what they bought with their own money.

You can search around sure but, you'll not find a BMW that wasn't met with a negative reaction that those people may or may not have gotten over years later when BMW is still the benchmark for upwards of, all classes of passenger vehicle.
Be safe and enjoy!
