It's been a while since I posted anything here. We're still driving our e70 35d and e46 M3. I check in from time to time for repair questions and always look at the lounge. Most recently came here to see why our e70 seemed to be dripping water from behind the passenger side front wheel and quickly determined it was a cracked washer fluid tank....thanks to this site.
It's nice to see you guys are still around.

I agree about the current 5 without dynamic suspension it drives like a boat.
I just change the transmission oil and had the front struts replaced. The car drives like new and still looks good I plan to keep it for another year or two then probably get an MB wagon. Sad but I will need to leave BMW because they don't want import wagons.
I like the e61 a lot more than my x5 4.4 which always felt big. I average over 21mpg with the 5 wagon so it makes going to the gas station a lot more pleasant.
The updated 2017 Cayenne also look interesting.
