The e60 is succeprible to cross winds, partially respinsible are the runflats. Quite hard ride and can transfer vibrations shocks to the steering, runflats responcible. You can loose traction or steering jerks if hit a pothole, runflats responcible

Best Reason to Buy the BMW 5-Series: Ride smoothness
WITHOUT Sport package the ride is terrific, car rides quietly. Sport pkg is too stiff, sport seats wrap around too much making entry/exit more difficult

The i-Drive joy stick is well known for not being user-friendly. When my wife drives the car we review the radio operation.
