BMW 5 Series Video Review – Kelley Blue Book
FOR PRICING & SPECS ON THIS CAR VISIT: www.kbb.com 2009 BMW 5 Series. Among midsize luxury sedans, the BMW 5 Series is the only car to offer a manual transmission — a fact that reflects its sporty appeal. As its quietly grown into a living legend, the continuing success of the performance-oriented 5 Series has helped to invigorate the entire category in which it competes. The softer Mercedes-Benz E-Class and Audi A6 are still sportier than ever, while the Infiniti M offers stiff competition …

Isn’t the infiniti at its best option have only 325hp? that is kind of lame also. Your gonna lose to a G35 Sedan lol.
January 25th, 2010 at 6:39 pm
No manual for the infiniti though. So it is out for me.

I know 3 people who own/owned a 5 series. 2 of which no longer have them. 1 friend had a 2001 530i, another a 2000 528i, and another a 2006 525. The older ones were good cars but they werent too exciting. and over the past year or so they were begining to have some problems so they sold them. Now, 1 has a Jeep Cherokee and the other a Chevy Suburban. My friend with the 525 still has his and its a really fun car. But Im still undecided whether i like the 5 series or the Infiniti M more though.

the idrive system isnt even that hard.. and it save a lot of buttons on the dash
January 25th, 2010 at 9:38 pm
It is even worse for the reviewers, as they may spend up to a week with the car. And after testing BMW after BMW, for 7 years, you would expect them to have some kind of general knowledge of the system. Instead, iDrive is always perplexing and they are always complaining about it, even blaming it for the reason a BMW may lose a comparison to a Mercedes, Lexus or Audi.
January 25th, 2010 at 9:54 pm
Your not even thinking about this logicilly. People who buy a BMW with idrive probably learned how to use it after a few hours or minutes. It is people who review cars say the Idrive is hard to use. Plus fifth gear and Top gear of the UK also claim it is a bad system. it is difficult to use if you’ve ever tried it, the new generation isn’t bad though.

/lexusfanla yo name just tell the story .
January 26th, 2010 at 12:22 am
If idiots still have not understood iDrive after 7 years, Americans are dumber than I thought.
January 26th, 2010 at 12:34 am
i like benz better but this is still a hell of a car
January 26th, 2010 at 1:30 am
you are so wrong there dude. cops pull you over more often when you drive a bmw..
the only ppl who write these sort of comments are the ones who never drove it as simple as that
January 26th, 2010 at 2:09 am
TheHaos1 what kind of car do u have? lemme guess one of those cheap Japanese semi luxury cars right? dude if u wanna talk about ppl driving beamers r snobs… u shud try driving one.. if u can afford one that is.. its truly very fun o and all thos lexus drivers and infinitis.. are u seriously complaining?
January 26th, 2010 at 2:28 am
What would give you that idea? Cops would be more likely to pull you over because they know you have money to pay for the ticket, but I doubt they care which car runs a red light. Speeding might be a different story.
January 26th, 2010 at 3:01 am
Uhhh…90% of the ppl that own a BMW will be like : “Oh look…! a red light,no matter i’ll just head on,i’ve got a BMW,no police will stop me…because i have a BMW !” i’m sick of that,although it is a really good car,but the ppl that are buying it…just mak me hate the car.
January 26th, 2010 at 3:48 am
ha…..my aunt used to have this and gave them headache…a bmw that gives off lots of problem
January 26th, 2010 at 3:59 am
Pay more for what?
You pay more by buying a Lexus.
You don’t put your hand in your pocket for anything for BMW for 4 years 50k miles.
BTW. I own a Rx400h and a 335i, and now just ordered a 535i.
Go drive a bmw because it’s not what you think.
I started out with a RX400h, went for a IS350 but then once I drove the 335i, I said “screw the is350″.
GO DRIVE IT.
That’s the best advice I can give you.
January 26th, 2010 at 4:16 am
I got a Lexus ISF
This thing is MADDD
January 26th, 2010 at 4:16 am
Coming from a Lexus IS250 owner…I traded my car in for the 550i, man….TOTAL DIFFERENCE.
I actually get excited to do errands and drive to work!!!! The drive between the two are totally different, and I’ve test driven the Is350 as well, but my 550i blows it out of the water in terms of handling and chassis balance.
The only thing getting hard use to is the ultra senstive brakes…I mean on a scale of 1-10, the brakes are are probably a solid 9.
January 26th, 2010 at 4:32 am
hey guys well i have a bmw 5 series it is 2009 and i just bought it like in march and it is awesome and the i drive trust me it is just getting used to.
January 26th, 2010 at 5:30 am
My friend, Spaceghost272, be ready to pay more for everything. Also, you will miss the Lexus service. European reliability? A lot to be desired still. More than basic visits for service. No comparison unless you are a racing fanatic. Then, leave your children home and go for it.
