Something is wrong with me?

I don't know why that I been thinking a lot about selling my M3 and buy the 2011 535i... Maybe I am getting old. The new 5 series is a nice car though.

Nothing wrong with you. I struggled as well when I went to order my M3. The new 535 was sitting there in the show room. I have a 4 month old kid and the extra room of the 5 series was really appealing, as well as its new body style. But the V8 in the M3 kept beguiling me.

You didn't give us enough information. If you have a family, maybe you're fine and just practical. If you are single or have only a spouse, you are probably very sick. I'll be 62 in a couple weeks and my M3 puts a smile on my face every day!

When you get an offer for getting an AARP card, then perhaps yeah. But even then, why would you? It's like a fountain of youth on four wheels! Enjoy it in good health man! ///M power!

Dibs on your wheels if you sell!

GL with your decision, remember the 535 is a much larger car

+1 and I'm older than 62. Plus, I traded the previous gen 535 in on the M3..!! The new 5er is nice, but I'm super pleased with the M3. As stated, it makes me smile every day.

LOL, ok, I admit. The reason why I've been having this kind of urge to sell the M3 for the 535i is that I've been traveling long distance quite often and "maybe" (I thought) that it would be nicer if I have a car that's more comfortable and with a little bit more luxury with some nice little gadgets here and there.

It is nicer for long distances but it will bore you to death after the lusty V8 in the M3.
