05 BMW 545i vs 06 BMW 330i

Hey everyone

I just thought that after 11th clutch, 20 sets of tires and loads of fun it's time to sell my 03 M5 especially that I already got myself a toy I love.

Now I was thinking about something subtle and comfortable but also with some kick. I found really nice 05 545i with sat nav and sport package with 67k miles on it. Also, my BMW dealer got really nice 06 330i sport/nav/premium w/ steptronic with just 40k miles on it.

I like both of them but I also like 5's styling a bit more (since it looks like the E60 M5 I guess) but my decision will probably come to fuel economy AND reliability. Which one has more problems? And how's with the fuel economy in that big 4.4 V8? Am I looking at more about 15MPG city or maybe 20-22??

I really don't know which one I'd be better off with.
