To be brief and to the point: the family’s old car has been too long to replace the new car within 60 years of the budget, comprehensive sales, word-of-mouth, praise, performance-to-price ratio and the previous brand plot (previously studied and lived in North America for a few years, has been in contact with Bimmer, and will be talked about later) North Mercedes-Benz S has nothing to say, domestic E has a lot of negative news. And that set of interior decoration, I think in terms of my own personality, I may be more tired in two or three months. Look. After all, nothing has changed after all these years. Audi Volkswagen has been lukewarm and uninterested. Lexus, Cadillac and Volvo all have their own characteristics and the price concessions are all good. After the test drive, I always feel a little less passionate, so I am determined to find a new BMW 5. Before that, I worked in BMW North America for a year when I was abroad. Just in time for the 17-18 5 series to change from the F chassis to the G site, my buddies Lease a 540i axis at the end of 17 years. So I have already experienced this generation of 5 series. At that time, I felt that the front face and interior of the taillight was not very good-looking, which was the familiar formula that remained unchanged for thousands of years.

Now that I have looked back at my familiar old friends, I am not excessively tangled when choosing a car: the appearance of M sports covers is necessary, the color does not matter, black, white and carbon black are all OK. Mainly like Mocha + comfortable seat (that is, the 7-series model, Nappa craft with white stitches) electric waist support, lateral support, the upper shoulder support can be adjusted plus a small headrest can be manually bent. Taking into account the parents’ car habits perfectly, this set of seats is more friendly to their lumbar vertebrae. If you enjoy the M optional seat, then the waiting time is too long, and then the minor change 5 series will be on the market. Anyway, the spoon lamp is more classic than the two bars after the mid-term change.

Baohua’s stereo is really not bad. However, I don’t know if the ears have become picky or psychological over the years. After listening to adjust the equalizer and sound field effect for the first time, the BeverW of the G38 does not have the same shock and penetrating feeling as the F10 Bigo that I bought abroad before. I remember that at that time, when I mentioned the F105 series to foreign countries, the first song I listened to was Silas’s version of “missing your Night”. Its high-pitched penetration was strong and clean, and its clear bass was also in place. There is also a sound unit that can be raised automatically in the middle of the Bauo center console. The G-Series Bathw has been cancelled, and only two “diamond” lights have been added to the A-pillar.

These are the main differences between luxury and luxury, and there may be a starry ceiling. This thing is simply understood as an atmosphere lamp on the skylight. Don’t be fooled by the name! This star ceiling has nothing to do with the star roof on Rolls. One is the optical fiber embedding, and the other is the atmosphere lamp decoration strip on the skylight. To be honest, there is a slight loss of auto parts city style at night, but basically, as soon as the sunshade is closed, I don’t often see it.

The extra option includes a 8900 driver assist (blind spot monitoring, front and rear automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, etc.), which is not the more than 20, 000 advanced auxiliary driver (with ACC) and rear seat heating 3000. Driving assistance is good, if the back row is heated. There is no business demand for pure household use, it doesn’t matter whether you have it or not. The current car configuration, it doesn’t matter.

In the G38 executive M, which went offline and arrived in June 2020, the 4S store I consulted only had a quota of two sets in June (both premium quotas will be more and less administrative. A long-running shop in Haidian District, Minzhuang Road. No name to avoid advertising suspicion) one black and one white, when I went to book the car, white had already been booked out, so it could only be black. Officially known as gem blue (that is, black has nothing to do with green) the discount rate is not bad, basically in the 12-14 points of MSRP. (recommended guidance price MSRP 549900); decoration, phased consultation fee, license plate inspection fee, etc., just talk to the sales. To buy a car, there is no such thing as the lowest price. Before going to the 4S store, you should do your homework in advance and set a reasonable psychological price. Sales staff service attitude in place, the price has reached a reasonable psychological price on it. The sales consultant is responsible for the whole process from introduction, test drive, delivery, license plate inspection, and even after-sales problems. This cycle and maintenance is actually quite a long time, and it is reasonable to maintain a good relationship and let people choose between earning more and earning less. Who will do a business that loses money and doesn’t make money? Mutual understanding anyway, as far as my own car purchase experience is concerned, I am very satisfied.

6.23 after mentioning the car, the new car only drove the 15KM and immediately went to paste the clothes. It takes less than 2 days to make a reservation in advance. Among them, you can also log on to Mini Program to see the progress of vehicle construction at any time. Choose the brand XPEL, it seems that this is the only store in Beijing (check if you are interested in the address) and reply to the timely offer. This thing costs every penny, since it needs to be protected from bumping against stones on a daily basis. Don’t worry too much about the price. Finally, it is decided that the thermal insulation film for the window + the whole car and clothing will be made here.

It should be noted that the pure transparency of cars and clothing will somewhat brighten the effect of the original factory car paint, and the original factory car paint may be a little small bug, which is one of many factors, such as logistics, such as the original machine spraying did not do a good job of 100% isolation of dust, sometimes there will be small paint bumps or sun lines, fine scratches and so on, it is not possible to look carefully. Cyclists with obsessive-compulsive disorder can do a full-car paint correction before affixing their clothes. In the first week after the car and clothes are affixed, it is best not to wash the car and not be afraid of the edge, or the membrane shift caused by water pressure. If you bask in the sun, some small bubbles may disappear by yourself. remember to go back to the store you posted three or five days later and ask for a ten-year electronic certificate (XP is a ten-year warranty. I’m not sure about the rest). Do not paste the car window film before the car inspection, do not change the appearance. The transparent film certainly does not change the color of the car body and does not affect the car inspection. Matte cars and clothes may depend on the mood of the car inspection yard, some can pass and some say no on the Internet.

After the car inspection, go back to re-check, paste the window film is also XPEL’s black samurai series solar insulation film. The sun is very poisonous in summer in Beijing. Previously pasted 3M, there are all kinds of ceramic films, but they all feel that there is not a perfect balance between the thermal insulation performance and the depth of the film. I chose this membrane because I can’t see anything from the outside to the inside, but I can see it very clearly from the inside out. Believe me, I have posted many kinds of sincere ok. The front window is not chamfered and does not want to destroy the integrity. As for not cutting corners, whether they conform to the rules or not, it all depends on personal preference. Give a reference: light transmittance front windshield 70%; front master and co-driver side window 20%; rear lead and co-driver and rear windshield 5%. I like this dark black samurai style, and I don’t like the feeling of seeing something in the car at a glance. There is no sense of blurred vision from inside the car at night, including parents have no sense of sight obstruction or lack of light when driving at night.

Since the window is black, the car is black. Let’s just go black to the end: the window side decoration strip is black; the original M Performance 5 is bright black in the net; the original M Performance is flanked by a furry steering wheel (pure personal preference adds a little bit of sports in the car); the trunk ducktail of the original M Performance is clearly arranged on Taobao. These installations are all in the 4S store where the car is picked up, walking a construction order to give others a part of the man-hour installation cost, especially the disassembly and assembly of the steering wheel and airbags.

Ok sees that it should be so dark here, except for the wheels! For family cars, only 252 of the 530 four-cylinder high-power vehicles are limited by Beijing road conditions and major basement waterproof platforms, so they temporarily give up playing posture. Do not drop shock absorber, do not brush computer power, do not change large wheels, do not increase tire width. The original factory ran out of gas to guarantee the tire in front of 245pyramid 35×19; after 275-40-19 (it seems to be this data); there is a layer of steel wire ring in the tire that is too hard, and the shock absorption effect is very general. Even if the speed of the deceleration belt slows down, there will still be a sense of bounce; the noise of the tire on the high speed is obvious; the drainage of the Beijing rainy season is general; the grip of dry land and lateral support are barely. The biggest feeling is the kind of bend before the upper fourth or third ring road in Beijing at a speed of 40-50, and you will feel that the roll is quite serious. Shock absorber is soft, but it also has something to do with tire support and grip.

In order to solve the problem of wheel hub blackening + tire performance, omnipotent salted fish + Taobao to replace a set of original bright black 540I M Performance disassembly parts. The original factory 664m bright black, the data is also the original factory 245mm 275 tire; buy 4 tire pressure monitoring mold RDC big several hundred yuan, with Michelin PS4 tire (PS4S 275tire width temporarily can not order and 252 horses of the family car its practical PS4S performance. After all, the difference between 4 and 4S lies in tire formula and road / track orientation. Completely blackened. Ha ha ha

Taillights and spoon lights are not covered with black film for safety. Spoon light. I think it’s okay. Sometimes the taillight looks too red. It’s good to stick a shallow layer.

What else is there to say? let me see. It’s raining recently, and the cars are so dirty that they don’t even have a chance to wash the car. I hope the rain god will retreat quickly and wash the car in a down-to-earth manner. Two days ago, I took a car wash near Chaoyang Dayue City (if I don’t remove the watermark, I can just leave it). I made an appointment at 9 o’clock in the evening to go more than 10:00 to wash all kinds of good cars inside. There is no problem in the washing process. The most important thing is that you can still take a set of photos, which is a little bit like GTA’s Swag.

It should be 1200 kilometers away from the car by now, and the fuel is all Shell V-Power # 95. The speed of the new car is kept below 4000 rpm (in fact, BMW engines will be pre-run-in before leaving the factory without running-in period. In the daily Comfort mode, the gear shift is active by 2500-3000 rpm and the upshift is no more than 3000 rpm) but it still works in your heart. I want to be a little milder in the first 2000 kilometers. Fuel consumption should be better on the urban 9.9L/100km highway.

Domestic 530 also has shortcomings, low-speed ZF8 fast setback I think it does not matter. Personally, it is not so obvious, the industry benchmark in addition to PDK is ZF8 speed bar. My biggest complaint is that there may be wind noise and occasional distractions when the position of the 5-series B-pillar is driven to a speed of more than 90 kilometers per hour. Look at the evaluation all said that the vehicle NVH control is good, the mute is very good. But I just think there’s a lot of wind noise on both the main and passenger sides. I don’t know if it’s an individual difference. Other 530Li owners are welcome to share it. The suspension is soft (of course, the orientation of household comfort is not a disadvantage). Pick some minor faults: 1, the engine automatic start and stop function can not be remembered until 2020, although it can be solved by brushing the machine, but it is very troublesome. No, no, no. 2, Baohua audio atmosphere lamp is only white, the brightness can be adjusted, the original factory can not change with the change of the color of the atmosphere lamp in the car. Interested friends can only go to the wiring change later. 3, the car is too new to make any noise, and compared with wood strips, aluminum alloy diamond bars are less likely to deform with the weather and climate changes? So take a follow-up look. Just buy the car and do the basic protection. With the use, bumps a little strange noise is also normal. Vehicle-machine system interconnection function can also be downloaded, you can download an app monitoring vehicle status control simple switch window ahead of time ventilation and so on. The touch screen works!

Basically like this, born to like tinkering, like machinery thanks to the North American used car market and price stability, the money of a car rolls around to play with many different kinds of cars and personality characteristics. BMW is almost through the customs have played E92 335i; E92 M3; F10 535i; F10 M5; F82 M4. G38 now, work hard to make money in the future, run for M5 Comp or M8 Comp.

There are a lot of interesting things to encounter on the way to play car, but it is more important to meet more reliable people and friends in the process!
In addition, I would like to ask some brothers in the Wechat group of the 5-Series car Association in Beijing to have a private visit.
