The fact that this reviewer referred to a '735i' that doesn't exist nullifies the whole review for me.

Clearly he's referring to the 740i which uses the -35 number designation on all the other models.... but still. If you're going to publish your crap in a magazine at least get the facts straight.

"In the U.S., results so far have been mixed. In July, 5 Series sales jumped 9.6 percent compared with the same month a year earlier, to 2,724. However, sales then fell 13.8 percent in August from the same month last year, to 3,047."

I'm also not really surprised by these numbers. Although there's some economic factors in play here, the initial "yipee" of a new 5 series wore off... I also love when BMW compares sales figures between 2 different models:

like... OMG sales increased 9.6% percent from last July when, you know, the e60 was 6 years old! hahah so lame
