[s-cars] BMW 530ix a UrS4 replacement?

[Taka Mizutani]

Joe-
The 530xi is available with a 6-speed manual transmission. It's also
around $56k.

Ugly exterior styling, ugly dashboard, i-Drive and rather
cheap-feeling, plasticky interior.

If you're going to spend that kind of money, I'd get the B7 S4
6-speed, much nicer car.

I drove the RWD 530i- it's not bad, but it doesn't wow me at all. The
older E39 chassis cars are much nicer looking IMO- I'd take a 540i
6-speed or M5.
