Thinking of 535XI, Msport , requesting feedback on some choices
Thinking of 535XI, Msport, few Q's and I really appreciate the feedback
1) is the Steering on 535Xi still hydraulic as i liked the 2010 535xi i drove 2) is the XI steering with M sport anyway affected with IAS? 3) Like the look of Msport, any negatives on the Msport with 535Xi , is body roll control significant with the ARS or is it a gimmick? 4) considering Space grey or jet back with Msport, i know color is personal but wanted to see what others thought about black as i think it makes the car look smaller than grey and hence considering black 5) options I want to get are Msport, CWP, 8 sport sport auto, driver asst pkg, premium 2 , is nappa worth it over dakota, if so is it more comfy/durable etc? I had it on my e46 m3 smg , liked it but i think it wrinkles faster 6) Anyone also considered the Merc E350 4matic? it looks nice too but it 7 speed is slow to change gears in manual mode Anything else I need to consider before I make up my mind? Thanks for your help |

Enjoying my identical ride. I do find the car a bit bulky when taking parking lot turns versus my old Lexus GS but given the added car dimensions I think thats too be expected. Corners awesome and I have not noticed body roll issues. Low front spoiler on M Sport makes clearing some parking lot curbs a worry at times. I have had to repark a few times to make sure I come up short and not in need of repair. All around cameras would have been a nice plus. Take the tire and rim insurance you won't regret it. I paid $1000 for 39 months. Enjoy!

I'm waiting for my sapphireblack 530d Xdrive with M-sportpackage, 20" rims styling 356, Oyster leather nappa, leather on top of dashboard and Individual Pianoblack trim.
I've chosen nappa because it has the same texture/look as the leather on the dash.
