Main specs:
535d: Carbon Black, Sport Auto, pack M, Pro Nav, 19" wheels (351M), leather, xenon, comfort seats, ceramic controls, head up display, new instrument cluster...

525d: Carbon Black, Sport Auto, pack M, Pro Nav, 19" wheels (351M), alcantara sport seats, xenon.

Both have 5 year or 100K km maintenance inclusive, and the used one has 4 years garantee (from bmw premium selection special campaign) vs 2 year on the new one. The new one will have the construction waiting period...

Which one would you choose? Heart vs Reason

ps. have not yet driven a 525d thus adding to the doubt.

Why spend 1 Euro when you can spend 10 Euro.?...I had a 530D, then quickly moved up to a 535D, the twin turbo is fantastic and makes a huge differance. A 535D has 44 % more HP than a 525D and 33% more torque.
