5 1/2 years, almost 80k miles

2013 BMW 5 Series 535i 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6M)
I am very happy with this car. I've only had two maintenance issues - needing to "retrue" the rims and replacing tie rod assemblies because they had seized and they couldn't align the car. Both probably due to years of Houston potholes . The car is a dream to drive and I still get over 30 mpg on the highway. I did go to Bridgestone driveguard tires on the third set at 60k miles and … they have softened the ride. I think it is an improvement.

2013 BMW 5 Series 535i 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6M)
I have owned my 535i for six months and love the car. I have had no issues at all with it and have already put 8,500 miles on the car. I average 27-28 mpg combined and have gotten 35-36 mpg on the highway doing 70mph. I have gotten a lot of compliments on the car it is Deep Sea Blue with Gray interior and W-spoke wheels. My car had a special production run with these wheels and I love … these wheels. My only complaint's no spare tire and the cup holder on the manual is useless. I don't plan on putting run flats back on the car too expensive for the staggered wheels. The car is fast, smooth and quiet.
First impressions - 500 miles driven - wonderful so far

2013 BMW 5 Series 535i 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6M)
Was looking for a smooth highway ride with nice handling.
This car came closer to my desires than Lexus, MB and Audi.
Very quiet and handles well on winding roads.
Soaks up road imperfections.
Will come back later with updates.
Edmunds projected price was right on target.
Everyone comments on how quiet it is inside and how well laid out the interior is.
Back seat is more roomy than I … expected.
Fast, luxury car!

I just purchased this vehicle and let me say, for the year, it still looks like the newer models because the body style is timeless! This car has some really cool technological features, it’s fast, there’s plenty of room for friends and family inside and it’s really FUN to drive!
