[QUOTE="viewfinder, post: 294725, member: 1704"] Hold your horses before anyone ditch his/her E34 and rush to book the E90. The E34 manual shows different data from the bracket numbers provided by fandango. Let me add the e60 (from brochure) as comparison. And watch out on the various width measurements. I think fandango compared 2 different kind of width measurement and thus drew the wrong conclusion. Measurement E34 525i(A) E60 525i(A) delta (E60-E34) Length (mm) 4720 4841 121 Width 1751 n/a n/a Width (up to side mirror) n/a 2030 n/a Width (rear) n/a 1846 n/a Height 1417 1468 51 Wheelbase 2761 2888 127 Front overhang 846 852 6 Rear overhang 1113 1101 -12 Front track 1470 1558 88 Rear track 1495 1582 87 Unladen weight (kg) 1515 n/a n/a Unladen weight (5 speed g.b.) n/a 1565 n/a Unladen weight (6 speed g.b.) n/a 1575 n/a n/a=not available E34 data from user manual.
