2000 BMW 5 Series Sedan 528i 4dr Sedan
Some Practical Advice
 Great car, solidly built, nimble at high
speeds.  Monstrous brakes and the
Stability system has saved me more than
once - getting itself out of an
understeer.  There is only one real
weakness - the tires.  Once I upgraded
the tires (wait for them to go on sale,
$150s per tire every now and then,
though i paid the full 200) i could not
have been happier.  Now I don't need to
endanger all of my neighbors and
strangers by driving a
car-crash-incompatible SUV and menacing
the roads in general.  Last winter (a
doozy of one on the East Coast), I drove
364 out of 365 days and that the vast
majority of rolled-over and road-side
crashed cars were trucks like the
Explorer and Blazer.
