Overview & Reviews
The 5 Series has been completely redesigned for 2004. Along with a new V8 and the iDrive vehicle management system, buyers can expect even greater handling from this premier midsize sedan than before.
- Available V8 power, handles more like a sports car than a sedan, luxurious yet sporty cabin.

u need 1 - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By Deman - June 12 - 2:00 amWent from a 99 540 sport package to 545i. No comparison. This is the finest handling car I ever owned or driven. (Including Porsche and Ferrari)

you be the judge - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By golfguy - May 26 - 10:00 amNot alot of miles yet, but first impression - FABULOUS. Love the Active steering and ARS, makes the car drive like its on rails. Logic7 stereo is great, though I am haming same issue as another reviewer with sound dropping out. iDrive is very convenient, loaded with information, and easy as a mouse to use. The nay- sayer mag. writers just need a 10 minute lesson to figure it out. Drove both regular and sport versions - the active steering makes any car feel like manual assist. Very well built and detailed. I have had more thumbs- up compliments with this car (sapphire on black) than any other car Ive owned, and Ive had a bunch.

Ultimate Driving - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By Seabum - April 19 - 10:00 amI have a 525i/w sport package and I love it. Its a sports car with class and room for the whole family at the same time. From the outside it looks like you typical luxury sedan, on the inside, well move over granny, its all sport.

IF ITS A SPORT CAR YOU WANT, GET IT! - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By wireless1 - April 19 - 10:00 amThis is an ultimate driving machine. 6- sp manual transmission is a must for driving enthusiasts. Not many manufacturers offer this. Car is extremely fast and handling is superb. New sport package hugs the road you always feel in control, at any speed. I invested in a new radar detector immediately. Inside comfort is great and new I-drive is easy to use, especially compared to original version. If you are a driving enthusiast, you will love this car. If you want a luxury sports car this is it, if you want a luxury boat go for the Mercedes.

525i Review - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By bigmike - March 12 - 2:00 am525i Auto w/ Premium & Cold Weather Pkgs - Looks great inside & out. (Whats all the fuss about? They kept the classic BMW styling cues, but made it sleek, & modern looking.) Lots of convenience features (i.e. driver position memory, dual climate control, free scheduled maintenance, etc.) 2.5L 6-cyl is adequate, but unexciting. Auto transmission is smooth and shifts well. Ride is refined and quiet, as you would expect. Roomy and comfortable interior.

It gets better! - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By Twister - March 12 - 2:00 amI drove a 2000 5-series for 4 years and thought it couldnt get any better. Wow!...was I surprised! BMW has NOT disappointed me and it lives up to all of my expectations. The ride is smooth; handling superb; and its filled with all of the comforts expected in a mid-sized luxury car! I look forward to getting into my 5 and driving each day.

Best BMW I have ever owned! - 2004 BMW 5-Series
By Lkeil - March 12 - 2:00 amI have now owned my 530i, 2004 for three months and enjoy driving the "Utimate Driving Machine". It handles better tan my previous BMW X5, which is hard to imagine. I love the power and control the car has, making me feel safe on the road! I recommend this car highly.
