I don’t have a problem with the front-end design, but from the rear, it really doesn’t look good. Personally, I installed a sport kit and modified it, and thank God it turned out looking much better and more satisfying. The cabin insulation is excellent, but the doors are a bit heavy and need some force to close. I feel a little bad every time I slam the door shut, so I recommend installing soft-close doors. There’s only one cup holder, which is honestly a strange design flaw. The interior screen looks less luxurious than the previous generation, but its performance is smooth and easy to use—so it’s acceptable. The ambient lighting in the front adds a nice touch, especially when you're driving and the colors start shifting, but unfortunately there’s no ambient lighting in the rear seats. The “Starlight” headliner (the starry lights) looks classy and really gives the cabin a luxurious vibe. The front seats are very comfortable, and there’s plenty of space in the back—naturally, because the car’s length helps with that. The handling is the main reason I chose a BMW. Compared to the Mercedes E300, the 530 clearly outperforms it in both performance and responsiveness. The throttle reacts quickly, and in Sport mode, you really feel the joy of driving. The new “Boost” feature gives you a fun surge of power during overtakes or sudden acceleration. What I didn’t like is that the auto start/stop system can’t be permanently disabled, which is a bit annoying in traffic. Bottom line: it’s a must to go for the M Sport trim—the front looks way better than the luxury version. I’d rate the stock design 5/10, but after modifications, it’s a solid 9/10. It’s a spacious car with enjoyable performance, and the price is very reasonable for anyone looking for both luxury and sportiness.
