Amazing vehicle
Bought my 2016 BMW 535i XDrive a few months ago and I absolutely love it. You can get one for a decent price. I paid 28k for mine with 50k miles and fully loaded. The vehicle had 2 minor accidents, but they were repaired by a BMW dealer and were done well. The 6-Cylinder, ZF transmission is by far the best in the industry. I will be keeping this till she dies.

Great Car costly and smaller than you might think
Love the car drives amazing power is top notch and features are nice as well. I enjoy driving it as my daily driver. Cost for up keep are high however its a luxury car so it should be expected. Reliability has been good and fuel economy is not bad either for a V8

The most preeminent, luxury sedan for under 35k!
The 2016 BMW 535i generally has a price that is under $35,000 with 13,000 miles, making it one of the smartest financial decisions, considering the fact that the 535i for the 2016 model was easily close to $70,000 with prestigious options. The sporty, midsize sedan is spacious and practical, with an aggressive front design. It is arguably the best handling vehicle when compared to its competition, with a solid and opulent interior. Also, this year of the 5 series is one of the most reliable, considering that BMW has maintained this body shape and design since 2011, meaning that every year BMW received feedback and worked on the reliability from the time period of 2011-2016. BMW's inline 6 engines are considered one of the best, and it can be seen in this car. With a solid 300 horsepower, its still a quick vehicle reaching a 0-60 time between 5 seconds and 5.3 seconds. BMW, however, designed a very heavy vehicle(close to 4,100 pounds), and by making the 535i slightly lighter, the car had the ability to be quicker and more nimble, which would make the car look impressive on paper.

The 528I is definitely not a sports sedan
Build quality was fine; but it is sluggish, and has no feel for the road. It lacks the exciting driving feel you'd expect in a BMW. The Turbo 4 is inadequate and leaves the car under-powered and wanting. This is a heavy car; with little power. The navigation is clumsy and quickly became outdated. Original equipment tires were a disappointment. They started cupping in front at 20,000 miles. Unfortunately, the car drives like an under-powered Buick. If I'd wanted a Buick I would have bought one for $30,000 less. Disappointed and I won't likely buy another midsize 4cyl BMW product. I've owned six BMW's and this is Well below their standards for performance and handling. Reliability has been satisfactory.
