I have only driven this model once, and it was a sedan not a wagon. But it was a a 12 hour round trip so I got a lot of seat time. Absolutely no complaints about the car. The 530 feels solid and ultra quiet. The one I drove belongs to a family member and I borrowed it to visit my daughter at school on a weekend when my 540i was snowed in.

Personally, I have owned my 2001 540i for 7 years. 300hp with a 6 speed from the factory. It's a luxury seat-of-the-pants ride and my favorite. It was my daily driver for 5 years until I decided it was getting beat up too much in the parking garage. Now it is my long distance drive car. Had the pleasure of playing with a newer Carrera S last weekend on the way up I-83 North. I'm not saying the Beamer could compete with that, but with the fear of radar over our heads, we hung pretty well together at about 120 mph.

IMHO, if the history of the 2007 530ti checks out with no major accidents, etc. There is no way in the world you will regret buying this car, and it will soon become your vehicle of choice.
