Save me the hassle of taking out the key to unlock the door and start the engine... sigh!!!4) Apart from the more powerful M54 engine that churns out about 260++bhp hence faster acceleration... it lacks everything that I mentioned above.P.S: I am not biased towards local specs E60... coz I own an 525 M-Sport Japanese specs... which I think the 218bhp is more than enough <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> and I spent more than RM7k just to listen to radio and GPS system... hope this helps!</blockquote>
