Perhaps you should try it - from what I know its quite a hassle to use it to operate the Radio functions - like changing the radio preset stations....you dont have the preset buttons..you have to toggle thru the i-drive menu and look at the screen to change your preset!! Quite a distraction if you are driving fast. Very big dissapointment for me. Ask the AB salespeople to demo it first and try it out on the road....Else, yes the E60 is stunning to look at! Even better than the conservative E90 I would say...The 523 has a detuned 2.5 engine (basically same as the 525i). Its still magnesium tech-lighter, uses less fuel, and has great torque spread from 3000-5K plus RPM. Ill wait for Q1 2006 for the 325i E90.</blockquote>
