On my prior 335i I ordered all the performance-oriented options and virtually none of the comfort/convenience options. On the 535GT I reversed that strategy. I did not get the sport package or the active steering; the base model does come with Normal/Sport/Sport+ settings which offer some customization of handling characteristics.
On the 535i GT I'm averaging 22 mpg in my suburban mix of city/hwy driving. That's exactly what I averaged in the 335i with MT.
To me the car feels exceptionally roomy in the interior, but I seek out larger parking spaces than before. I think the rear camera is a must for back-in parking. In sport+ mode it feels like a lively car, but with sport package I would expect it to feel much more so.
The utility is terrific and comfort outstanding. I got the nappa leather interior - forget what it's called but the seats are off-white and the carpet black. Very nice inside!
