How's the V4 engine with 240hp? I have a V6 220 325 now and it's decent. I'm intereste in the 5 series but afraid of the v4 would lag the power especially with a heavier body than the 3 series sedan.

i'm interested and test drove 535 before, but not a 528. any noticeable diff?

It's like an entirely different car. It really looks great. Have you noticed a difference in ride?

IDK. Since I have the 3.0L in-line 6. I believe that the v4 engine are for the 2012 model. I would be curious to know how it runs with the new 4 cylinder engine.

Sup AJ!! I notice a big difference in the handling of the car. It feels very sporty but nice and comfortable at the same time. I do feel that the H&R sport springs played a big factor in the ride quality (for the good in my opinion) but the wheels/tires fill in the gaps on the overall performance of how the car handles.
Thanks for the comment.

oh my mistake.. so the 2011 528 is still a v6 with 240hp like yours.

how did it compare with teh 535? i'm sure you test drove both before settle with this one.

Given the opportunity to buy the car I would go with the 535i. But the 528i would do for now for the daily use in the city.
