Dallas is great! I'd probably consider keeping the car if you're commuting into a big city from the suburbs, but if you're going to live in NYC or DC, I'd sell it. I took over the lease on a BMW...

I leased my 2009 997 S Cabrio since I'm self-employed and can write off about 80% of the payment. Paying cash or even 1.9% financing didn't make as much sense in my situation, though it'd be smart...

Hey Dan --- The "E39" is the 97-03 5-Series and includes the M5. The current (ugly IMO) 5-Series is the "E60", which is being replaced by the new "F10" model.

Years ago I had a 2003 540i 6-speed, Sterling Grey/Black, with the M5-style bumpers that came standard on 540i/6 cars that last year. Of the 20 cars I've owned, it's easily in the top 5. My real...
