This is today:




Just picked up a brand new 2013 528i xDrive M-Sport for my daily driver.
This car is perfect for daily, can go 0-60mph in less than 6 secs, averaging 27 mpg and all-wheel drive too.






Pretty much loaded:




Auto Start-Stop when brake pedal is pressed....just like Prius :)




You can check facebook from the Nav screen!

Yes, see link below, on a stock 328i, they get 5.4 secs 0-60 mph time

Of course 528i is about 400 lbs heavier (but the lightest among 5-series), so 6 secs is reasonable.
Here are the Weights of different xDrive models:
328i: 3627 lbs
528i: 4001 lbs
535i: 4233 lbs
550i: 4519 lbs

love everything about it! nice color combo. i would get bmw to disable the start stop though by default. i hated that on the f30 28i, it was so rough it shook the whole car on start again with a slight delay in acceleration

This will stay stock! :)

You can disable it with a button near the steering wheel. My mom just got a white 528 xdrive too but hers isn't the M sport. Beautiful car(s)!
Yeah, you're right, actually that easy, just push that button then the Auto Start-Stop is off.

Some "necessary" mods:





Small engine, plenty of space in the engine bay :)



Not so stealth with the bright blue light:



Saw this funny sticker under the hood :)



New OEM filter vs aFe filter:



Filter installed:



I had to move the aFe module to top of my air box from the side (see pic #4) because it fell to my engine bay, good thing it still works fine and didn't mess up anything!
