hmm... it's completely oppsite to my experience. I saved about $100 a month leasing a 530i compare to the M35 by taking advantage of BMW's ED program and high residual.. If I can lease a M35 for similar monthly payments, I may get M35 instead for added powers and room.

Yeah. I think thats why the sales are higher as well. Less expensive to drive a 5 Series or and E-Class. But you def get what you pay for with the M35. I get atleast 1 compliment on the car everytime I go to the mall or grocery shopping. Anytime I am with my associates who drive the 5 series, we do not even get a look. The car is much to common. Seems like everyone has one.

Exactly the opposite where I live (greater DC area). Hardly anyone can identify an M, and few are seen. BMWs are everywhere and highly sought. I drove both the M and E60 and I like some of the features of the M (nav especially), but it is NOT CLOSE to being the drive that that the E60 is. Also, the M is noisy (tires, wind, etc), which for 40K+ should be better.

Exactly!! They are less expensive. That was the main reason i went with the M. Much more exclusive (ATLEAST IN NJ/NY)

535xi vs M45 instead

Since the 530 is out of production you might want to consider the 535xi vs M45 and 528xi vs M35 proposition as well.
Price and performance makes the proposition a tough one.
