Sounds like us. We had a 2007 530i until last year (sold it for a 4Runner as we simply needed more space for the kids). The 530i was one of the best cars I ever owned. Fast, comfortable and returned 32 mpg on the highway on occasion. Zero maintenance issues while we owned it.
My only complaint is that the value dropped like a rock. Contrast that with my 2001 Toyota Tacoma I just sold. I bought it brand new in 2000 for $21.5k and sold it last month for $10k. That works out to about $75/month of ownership.
