This thread reminds me somewhat on how e39 540i owners think the e39 M5 isn't all that different than 540's. I test drove a loaded 28i with leather, wood, moonroof and iDrive (don't remember if it had xenon's) and the power IMHO wasn't enough. Mind you I was coming from a e39 M5 so I needed something that had balls, plain and simple. After driving the 35i I was sold and I picked this over CP0 335i's and a new GT 5.slow
