e61/n54 I'm a magnet of 'what can go wrong'

If there were a new Msport 540 wagon, or better yet an M5 wagon, I'd buy it.

Either one would likely come with the same numb on-center issues that appear endemic to all EPAS systems so I'd just pass.

As an admitted steering snob I hate this current generation of electric steering racks with a freakin' passion. Brings back bad memories of the 01 E46 (aka The Ultimate Parking Machine).

Back on topic, with N54 and Panoramic Roof vehicles I'm not looking forward to having to deal with either issues respective to each, but I'll gladly put up with them.

I enjoy driving both immensely, because they actually feel connected to the road, regardless of the speed or what you're asking the rack to do.

With only 20k miles on the E82 and just over 40k on the E91 unless something catastrophic happens it's entirely conceivable I won't be replacing either one for the next 10 - 15 years.

Which is probably a good thing because it's time to BANK (thanks Josh )for early retirement, although it will likely render me the most boring man on any car chat board.
