my guess is 33 for here.

My data point is 47 and this is my first 5 series. 55 makes sense based on what I see on the road.

Enthusiasts are a whole different ballgame. I was at Bimmerfest here in So. Cal a couple of weeks ago (huge gathering of BMW owners & vendors at a local Indy car/NASCAR/etc. racetrack) and the average age was maybe 30 tops.

Owned a 4GC before, F10 is so much more enjoyable.

The age in general maybe 55 but the enthusiast age seems to be right around the mid 30's... I came from a 3 series...I'm curious to see how many of you graduated up from 3 to 5.

The op posed a question about the statistical average age of an F10 owner, not forum members ages.

I'm about to.. Still shopping against the A6 3.0T, but most likely going 535. Coming out of a '13 335xi M Sport. Turning 40 in a few months.

46 here btw

from observations in this part of the world the average age would be early-mid 50's, and very much executive-type buyers.

I'm 29 and drive a F10. Had an E92 at 21

i am 34.

my first BMW is the active hybrid 5.

but have also been into personalising my cars from my first - vauxhall vector, vauxhall zafira, subura tribeca, audi Q7, and now 5 series and MINI cooper s JCW.

i have 3 kids 8, 11 and 14 and the 3 series was too small across the back for them to all fit.

5 series is fine, but transmission tunnel doesn't go down well with who ever sits in the middle.

i wanted and X5, had the chance for a E70 X5M, instead of the active hybrid but mrs. sensible preferred the 5er.

I'm 30. Came from an E90 M3 and an E86 z4m coupe before that. The F10 is super comfortable to drive but I do really miss the performance of an M car. I'll prob move on to an F80 M3 a few years down the line.

I'm 22 and just bought my first F10
