Best by far - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By waxahach - July 21 - 2:00 amI tested every other make in its class including Audi, Mercedes, Jaguar, Lexus, Infiniti and Cadillac. While all the others were very good cars, the 530i is a in class by itself. Truly the Ultimate driving machine, its new styling and outstanding engineering coupled with an unequaled performance makes it the buy of the decade. You have done it again BMW and thanks.

I love my car - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By aerokittie - July 15 - 2:00 amComing from an Audi S4, the BMW 530i 6 speed manual is quite luxurious. I do have to say I miss the torque in my Audi S4. However, once in third gear the BMW starts to perform. Handling, cornering and the xenon headlights are awesome.. so far I really enjoy driving it. A very nice car to take a baby step up, in.

BMW 530i from RLA - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By RLA - July 2 - 3:24 pmThis car makes me feel good to drive. I love it! For about the first year, we had some software problems -- nothing that affected performance, but created a nuisance (e.g., couldnt sense CDs in CD changer, difficulty recognizing voice commands). BMW found the problem and upgraded software. Since then, its problem free. Inside styling is chic, but its a bit cramped. Little storage room.

Looks can be decieving - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By Melina - April 25 - 6:54 amI bought the car in Germany and couldnt wait to get it back to the states. The same week it arrived I had to turn it into the dealership because, the monitor said I was out of oil. They fixed that problem. A couple of months past and one night the car went crazy. Windshield wipers wouldnt turn off, headlights, radio, interior lights were all flashing. BMW claimed to fix the problem. 2 weeks later I was at the dealership again for another "software" issue. My vehicle had been in the shop 7 times and was less than a year old. I was really disappointed with the way BMW Corporate handled the situation. I could have purchased a Neon and had less problems. I wont be purchasing another BMW.
