Bought it used. Best car I've ever had!

I LOVE MY CAR!!! Beautiful, holds the road well in all weather, comfortable, just do the oil changes and such when due and you will never have to do much else, even at 176,000 miles. Did I say it? I LOVE MY CAR!!! I've had this car for 90,000 miles and ill say it again... I LOVE MY CAR!!!

Nice ride.

This is one big car. Twin turbo eight cylinder is really too much for city driving. It's the perfect road car for comfort and ease of operating. If only it could get better gas mileage, but that's the price of power. Love the car.

Engine quit 1 yr after purchase

Engine had to be replaced and cost as much as the car when we purchased. No help from dealership. New starter installed with engine and it died - replaced again. Now electrical issues with door locks. Would never ever buy another BMW based on this horrible experience. Super expensive to repair as well.

Awesome Car!

I just celebrated my 76th birthday so I can speak with experience and authority! As a professional I have owned many different Luxury cars….Lincoln, Cadillac, Lexus, Mercedes, Thunderbird “back in the day”! This is by far the best car ever!

Awesome vehicle

Reliable and safe. Smooth driving. For its year, wear and tear has been the only issue. I love the way it handles turns and ramps. It’s an overall beautiful car to drive. What more can I say? I love my car.

Love the Performance Hate the Quality of Interior Materials

Though our BMW 535i is an exceptional performance car, we experienced early on the deterioration of the interior switch buttons where the lettering was rubbing off. Then it proceeded to the arm handles which literally have disintegrated with the "leather" being rubbed off to the point I have to wrap the handles in duct tape.

I'll never buy one again

Worst on reliability - very costly and stupid expensive stuff breaks that should not - like all my trunk mechanisms, fan blades, and the run flats are hard and horrible. I put over 3000 a year every year in this car. The battery issues are unacceptable. Cracked rims due to hard run flats, A radiator hose cost 1000 to replace - OMG

Love chassis - lot of built-in inconveniences

I am very happy with body and cabin size and comfort. Engine compartment space is non existing. Bit too soft driving for m6 taste (am German). Electric and electronics are a pain in the a**. Things like battery change, trunk light, seat folds, access under seat, excessively high cost on interior trim parts, programming deficiencies, lack of customizations, really outdated very bad navi map and data even on newest update, airbag alarm when I set down my purse in passenger seat ..I could go on and on. My lifes' dream would be to work with BMW Product Development to improve design. But I love this car, just think new is not always better, even on my favorite BMW.

Nice

Leaks. Leaks happen. Leaky car. #LeakLife it’s a beautiful fun car. But leaks are coming. And they don’t leave. Anything can leak. Find a good repair shop. You will be visiting. Also don’t buy run flats at Costco.

I’m a fan.

I love my 535i but have one criticism. Although the ride altogether is great I would expect a better feeling when hitting small potholes. There is always an unexpected thud. My first was an early 528e then later a 735i and both performed better than my 2011. Other than that I bought this one as a retirement gift to myself 3 yrs ago and I am just as happy as when I test drove it.

Hell No

528i, 50,000.00 miles and the spark plugs and coils went out. Spoke to customer service at BMW Corp., about all the problems I was having. Answer: Nothing was done. Nothing more need to be said today.

My BMW 550i

If you love fast cars this is the one to purchase it will perform for you. Can handle the road at any circumstances, the style of the car is top shelf very stylish very sleek. The only disadvantage of this car is that it is terrible on gas and that because it has a 8 cylinder so you expect that. I would highly recommend purchasing one of these cars, it is absolutely beautiful.
