by the way- has anyone here ever used iDrive? im kinda curious about it...

The E65 is a superior vehicle in terms of technology, ride comfort, handling, etc. I drove my sister-in-law's 745 and found the car to handle very well for such a large car. I WISH my E38 had the E65's suspension.
On the other hand...Aesthetically it is an abomination. The criminal Van Hooeydonk drew it, Bangle approved the design and BMW bought into it.
As for getting noticed on the road...An Edsel will get you noticed and so will a Ferarri Enzo. Which would you rather be seen driving?
Cars represent a variety of factors when it comes to selecting one. Utility, economy, cost, performance, etc all have a part in the selection process.
Before I write a check for upwards of 80k for a car, a significant issue for me is I HAVE TO LIKE THE CAR'S LOOKS.
Drive safe
