My new silver 535i with cinnamon interior

tk005x · 07-18-2010, 05:55 PM

Just picked up my 535i last Tuesday and here are some pics after claying + polish + 2 coats of wax

Also big

to Mark Carvalho at JMK BMW, best experience with a CA that me and my family have had. I would def. recommend him to anyone looking for a BMW in NJ.

Here are the options that I got:

Sport Package + Sport Auto
P1, P2,
Cold Weather
Cinnamon Brown
Cold Weather
Dynamic Handling
Comfort Access

Initial Impressions:

Would have to say that this car looks much better in person then looking at it from pics.

I'm also waiting for the car to break in before I try out the sport and sport+ settings. Even on normal mode car feels very solid through the corners, I do think the steering is slightly on the light side on center but it is not a big deal for me. Compared to the e-class it feels much better and heavier.

Transmission is great, so far have not had any problems so far with the tranny hunting for gears like the lexus 8-speed.

Sound system + HD radio sounds great, one of the best stock systems I heard so far.

Would love to see some photos of the cinnamon brown interior (with silver exterior in view). I believe other members would like to see that also.

Bought family E90 from JMK also a few years back. Great dealership

Hoss NY · 07-18-2010, 07:26 PM

Congrats! Looks great.

jeff328xi · 07-18-2010, 08:40 PM

Nice!!!!
I'm thinking of same combo. I've also been to JMK, good people.

Congrats, yes please try to take pictures of the interior and the exterior.

Enjoy your ride!

Hi there, welcome to 535i family !!!

I have been experincing the stunning handling and outstanding power from my beloved 535i since 25/6/2010.

Great choice and enjoy such an awesome ride everyday !!!!

Robin_NL · 07-19-2010, 07:33 AM

Congrats man. I almost chose silver as well but went for black(and the same 19"331s) Nice understated looks. I like that a lot.

Cheers
Robin

You should have covered your chassis number before posting those pictures of your car! You can never be careful enough these days! Please delete it a.s.a.p. as it lies in plain sight on your rear window! Regards

Will post some pics of the interior once the weather gets better..

Thanks, black is always one of the best colors imho but so hard to take care of.

Every car looks best in black. However, it's like chasing around a 2 year old...never ending. After my last black car in 1995, I promised myself no more black, too hard to keep clean.

warmtoes · 07-19-2010, 05:42 PM

Looking forward to the interior pics. I was considering the brown with silver and would love to see what it looks like together. Hopefully you can get some shots that show the outside and the inside of the car at the same time.

I'll try to post more pics with the outside included. Color is really hard to capture on camera.

dpwr · 07-19-2010, 06:51 PM

looks awesome, more pics of interior plz

kfiend · 07-20-2010, 01:44 AM

Congrats with the new car!
I have the same interior combo on order, that looks sweet!

jeff328xi · 07-20-2010, 05:12 AM

Wow, The combo is awesome. Thanks for pics it helps a lot!

warmtoes · 07-21-2010, 09:44 AM

Thanks for the pic of the outside and inside. It looks really good. I was worried it would clash but it doesn't at all. Very nice. Did you debate the colour of the trim? In the configurator it's hard to tell if the dark or light brown is better. The dark in yours does look good. Congrats.

tk005x · 07-21-2010, 10:21 AM

Will add more pics on Friday/Saturday of the interior.

I think the dark trim went along with it much better, it also kind of has a greyish color to it at times as well which I thought was nice.

I did think about adding the alcantara but did not see it in the options list when I ordered it. But as for how it looks for that option, I think it could go either way. But feel that interior would look smaller with a dark headliner.

vladberca · 07-24-2010, 04:54 PM

Congrats for your great car!

Soon ExAudi Guy · 07-24-2010, 06:15 PM

Looks great!

Any chance you could take some clear night shots of the gauges? I've seen pics of the ambient lighting but not of the instrument cluster at night. On a You Tube video of a 5 series GT, there's a blue ring around the speedo/tach. Is this only on the GT?

tk005x · 07-24-2010, 08:04 PM

More pics... I would say overall the darker pics are more accurate unless the sunlight is really bright.

Don't have the blue rings around the tach. Do you have a link for that video?

Very nice, I like it...congrats...

Soon ExAudi Guy · 07-24-2010, 08:33 PM

This shows the blue rings. I think they look sharp.

ibimmer954 · 07-25-2010, 12:01 AM

No blue rings on the F10. The GT dash is a bit different than the F10. The motif is pure BMW amber. Here are some crappy iPhone pics. The color is a little off, the real color is amber. There is a thin amber line surrounding the dials, but it's hard to see. I also tried to get a shot of the HUD in one of the pics. It's blurry, but you can kinda see it.
