Ok guys, I need your help. Im looking at a 2004 525i, what are some major problems that you guys know of with that model year. Im going to look at it this comming wednesday, One week from today. I currently have a Z4 but am looking to lower all around costs, payment wise, but I want to be sure that Im looking at a good car and not some junk that someone has beat the hell out of. Any help is much appreciated. TIA!

Hey man, wassup..... First of all, you should test drive the 525i and then test drive an 530i. You will notice a huge difference all around! The 525i seems too underpowered for such a heavy car. I would check out the pros and cons of an 525i vs. a 530i and then decide! Goodluck on your hunt, B
