there is so much whining on this board I thought it was time for some cheese :-)
This is a great car.....stop complaining
Vibrations..high performance tires....even Michelens will get flat spots.
Memory problem....more than likely self inflicted...if you change any setting that is retained in memory you need to reset...this includes temp and radio stations
I just did a 300 mile trip...26MPG at an average 63MPH and I could have driven 300 more.
Some of you know from the id that I traded an 03' 530i for this car.
I have no regrets...car is awsome...handles like on rails...power curve never stops...sound system is outstanding.

Glad you're enjoying the car, 530, so am I! I just did a 300 mile round trip this weekend, and got 22-23 mpg, but that was because my cruising speed was 80 mph, and 50 miles on the tank were used in in-town driving before the trip.
4600 miles and still smiling.
