This Is Reliable.
This car is a fast and reliable and low cost car that you can buy. It's a moneyback guaranteed car, I love the interior design most, it seems classical and comforting, as if you were going to take a luxurious and lavish bath, anyways this car is AMAZING. Recommend you to get it if you are looking for low cost car.

Extremely comfortable daily driver with all of the bells and whistles. Crazy comfy 12-way adustable sport bolstered seats and lots of power when you want it. Superb handling that is fun to drive and incredibly fuel efficient. 800-900++ kms. per 60L tank on the highway

I bought this vehicle not long ago. I drove it on a rainy day with an average speed of 50mph. I hit the traction control to maximize traction control, but the vehicle started to act weird. First, It locked up my control wheel. then it started to roll left. I was driving alone so i assumed that there was more weight on the left and thats why it rolled left. The vehicle was designed to not let you place any control input to fix the left roll. I hit curve so hard that it almost took my life. I will never trust BMW traction control system again. If you own this vehicle and you live in a area where it rains a lot, I suggest you sell your BMW right a way. Its not worth it to risk your life for some beautiful interior designs.

Terrific Ride
Car of my dreams. It has a 3.7L 300HP dual turbo engine. It eats gas. I can pass anyone who drives slow. I barely need to touch the gas for the car to fly. It is high maintenance and requires grade a Fuel

Super luxury and Sport
This is one amazing machine had it how for 4 year i do a lot of HWY driving. Ok the HWY it good on gas for a V8 twin turbo. The executive seats are so comfortable you dont want to get our of the car. When you want to corner just put it in sports + and this bad boy is on rails. Reliability is good no major issues.

All great drive
After 3 years still love the power and handling.The I drive and infotainment system is terrible and navigation without an address is brutal. Several electrical and mechanical problems all looked after by warranty. Not great service compared to my last Jaguar or my wife's Caddy.
Would buy another one if they smooth out the Idrive otherwise off to the Audi or Mercedes shop.

This BMW 535xi is very well engineered, a real joy to drive, plenty of power but not a "race car". Very comfortable, handles very well, fully loaded with great options: Nav, Head Up, Heated and Cooled Seats, Updgraded Sound System, Lane Departure Warning, Back-Up Camera and Proximity sensors, Front and Back Cameras

Love this car!
Long time german car driver and this is the best I've owned yet. Got tired of costly Mercedes scheduled maintenance. ($1200 min per visit!) The 535 works great since my 2 year old can crawl in and out of the back unlike my SUV. This car even performs better in the snow than my ML320 SUV!! I would buy this car again.

Awesome car with great design
Awesome car, bit expensive on the fuel with current prices. Luxurious interior and limo-like back seat, but it has narrow niche appeal--and it's neither as nimble as the 5 sedans nor as handy as the X5.

For the true racer. I took this car down the I-90, Absolutely a beauty.
The only issues lie in maintenance. Parts are expensive and I would suggest a trusted third party retailer if you need parts because manufacturers parts are really expensive
