Smile I'm back in a BMW...just picked this up | some PICS

This was about 6 months ago:




This is today:




Just picked up a brand new 2013 528i xDrive M-Sport for my daily driver.
This car is perfect for daily, can go 0-60mph in less than 6 secs, averaging 27 mpg and all-wheel drive too.






Pretty much loaded:




Auto Start-Stop when brake pedal is pressed....just like Prius




You can check facebook from the Nav screen!




Some interior detail pics:

Looks great - when you had the E63 and M5, how did you do in the winter?? I'd love to have a powerful RWD car, but the thought of driving 500+ hp with RWD in the winter (aka snow) scares the crap out of me (it's one reason I've bought tons of Audis).

That's a nice combo you've got now...

I put real winter tires (not performance winter) on my E55 and actually it was pretty good in the snow. And that car had pulley and tune putting ~600 ft/lbs!
