This is an unplanned change.
Because of the recent license restrictions spread in the city, and a car in the family hung a non-local license plate because of the fourth national emission can not raise the file to transfer. So there was little trouble with the decision to change cars in mid-September (within 50% budget, with a large SUV on hand), which was brought back by a slight comparison between the BMW New 5 and the Mercedes-Benz E. the 2018 Snow Mountain White Night Blue interior 525i.

About choosing one of the two: very simple, both good cars, but not yet 40 years old, think Mercedes-Benz exterior interior is old-fashioned, and BMW is more passionate to drive.

About the long axis or the standard axis: I chose the standard axis for three reasons-1, there is a large car at home without considering the space, 2, my wife will use this car, 3, Daai cross diamond aluminum trim panel and dark night blue interior. To be honest, I didn’t think too much about manipulation. I have some experience in the car (work is related to the car, no less than a dozen cars have been driven for a long time). I have driven all the long axes, and there are only three obvious driving feelings: first, the driving texture of the standard axis chassis is tighter and more moving, and the long axis is more comfortable; second, when the speed is high, the suspension lateral support of the curved standard axis is more powerful; third, the standard axis city is good to turn around. As for what standard axis training authentic driving fun is higher, it has to get off the track or professional drivers can come out. So in a word-unless there is an import plot, choose the long axis or the standard axis only depends on whether you care about the space or not.

About the 525 or 530 Compact 540: if this car is mainly driven by me, I will go directly to the 540, not only because of the power, but also because I am configuration control. The 525 power is enough, which means to configure the handicap. But this car is mainly driven by my wife, and at that time there were only 525 existing cars with axes marked in the store (I bought a few cars, never waited for a car, all were cash withdrawal cars), so I bought this 525i decorated with white and dark night blue interior.

About 525i power: completely, completely, completely enough! Don’t worry about driving style and demand (my other car is 3.0T supercharged and speeded up a little more than 6 seconds), the speed limit on highways in the city is not enough for people obsessed with pushing back. After all, BMW’s on-wheel power data is excellent, and ZF’s gearbox is really good.

About modification: 1. For me, modification is an attitude, and I hope my car is different. 2. I only change the appearance, stereo and some comfortable or technology configurations, never change the power-related ones. Because I’m not a senior player, I don’t get off the track, I don’t have that level. 3. No matter what you change, you must go to a regular big modification store, preferably a little old. 4, refit the heart must be big, especially change the stereo, the car is almost all dismantled, looking distressed.

About the modification list of my car:
Harman Catton Audio-a full set of 16 speakers with L7 power amplifier.
Baohua Weijian vice factory full set cover plate.
Speed limit module.
Tire pressure monitoring.
Full LD carbon fiber appearance kit-front lip, rear lip, flank, tail, horn outer rearview mirror shell.
Carbon fiber interior decoration.
Interior chrome-plated parts.
Brush hide-Albin dashboard display and automatic start and stop memory.
That’s all for now. Originally considered on the acc plus and display, but to change the glass is really reluctant, put it later.
My modification is to create a sports atmosphere, many people buy 5 series for business, so it is not appropriate.

About defects: 1, taste-the new car is relatively large, although imports do seem to be smaller than those made in China (it may also be psychological). When I first picked up the car, I felt uncomfortable driving my bronchus. Bought charcoal bags, ventilated and opened windows to run, the taste has been much less for ten days now. It is estimated that another ten or twenty days should be enough. 2. There is indeed a setback at low speed, which may be the so-called kinetic energy recovery. 3. Although the full liquid crystal dashboard has made great progress compared with before, it still shows less content, not enough technology, and general playability. 4, 525i configuration is really too low, no seat heating and ventilation, no acc, the original car audio waste to the extreme.

The picture above below, long-term update. All mobile phone shooting, mobile phone snapseed software later stage. I have been rather lazy recently. When I have time, I must take a good picture of a full-frame camera and send it up.
By the way, why can only send 40 pictures? I took almost 100 pictures.

Interior decoration

At the back door, the dark blue interior is very special, but it tends to be black when the light is poor.

A comparison between my two cars, Xiaobai and Da Hei. Nowadays, basically 525 is opened in the urban area, and Q7 is still opened when going out to play or for business.

————————–

Borrowing the last paragraph of the Q7 car-lifting sticker on the home page of my previous article: After working for 15 years, from working to starting a business, I have always believed in two things:1. Live a comfortable life and live a hard life comfortably;2. People can only grow in a non-comfort zone. After working hard all the way, although my hair line is getting higher and my eyes are slightly blue, I finally have some ability to allow my family to live comfortably and moderately satisfy my hobbies. All the quiet years in this world are just someone carrying heavy burdens for you. As men, we must shoulder our responsibilities. As men, if you are not brave, no one will be strong for you. So I hope our families can live in peace and quiet, and I hope we can all move forward with heavy burdens.
