Review

I have owned this car for 10 years and it has been great. It still drives as if on rails. Acceleration and handling are outstanding. The five speed manual is smooth as silk. Interior is holding up well. Heated seats are great in the winter. When in for service, I get a free loaner. It is always a comfort to get my car back as I believe it actually drives better than the loaner cars even after these many years.

Favorite Features

5-speed manual transmission, engine soundness, handling, and the heated seats.

Suggested Improvements

FM radio has recently developed a short and cuts out for a few minutes during warmup. Standard wheels should have been upgraded as in later models.

Review

I have been BMW shopping for months and then I find this 525i on Ebay of all places. What can I say. This is it. A gem of a car. Fun to drive and looks to kill. The automatic sport trans is a thrill and the power is never ending. These are great values right now. Get a good one with low miles. Mine is at 77k.

Favorite Features

The interior cabin is inviting. Nice and soft and big. Wood trim, power seats and power sun roof are nice.

Suggested Improvements

Better stock audio options. If all BMW owners keep changing the 15" stock rims out how come BMW has not loaded them with at least 17" BBS rims. There is a land fill site somewhere with thousands of boring 15" stock rims.

Review

The feel and power of this car makes me feel like I'mm actually driving a sports car. But the roominess reminds me that I'm in a sedan.

Favorite Features

The speed.

Suggested Improvements

the dash is too complicated with the service light feature. Simple is better
