Used 2022 BMW 5 Series Consumer Reviews
Brand new
Shortage of computer chips cause several options to be eliminated. These options were available when the car was ordered from BMW and the factory didn’t inform me or the dealership that options were removed. No adjustment to the sticker price either.

Excellent daily driver
Incredibly comfortable upscale daily driver with an abundance of power. The V8 engine with 523 horsepower rockets this large sedan to 60mph in just 3.6 seconds with performance that nips at the heels of the M5. BMW’s infotainment is amongst the best in the industry.

Bad AC System for the 5 Series
I bought a 2022 BMW 540 in December of 2021. Car has been back to the shop four times. Living in Florida it gets very hot down here and when you set your automatic climate control to 74 degrees and the cabin hits 74 degrees the vents down by your feet and the rear vents for the passengers throw out hot hot heat. BMW says that is the way the car is built. Anyone living in a climate where you need constant air conditioning like Florida do not buy this car. I love the car it's a beautiful car it rides beautifully but has very bad air conditioning

Something Different
This is my first BMW. Coming from the Cadillac Brand I decided to do something different. So far I am pleased with the operation and handling of the 5 series. Asked me again after 6 months and a few trips.

Best automobile I've driven
I have a 2021 M550i. Extraordinary car. The comfort factor in this car is the very best I've experienced. The variability of seat adjustments is incredible. I have had 13 herniated discs and never have I found a more variable adjustable seat, nor massage modes. The power (523hp) is insane for a car in this sector. Acceleration is phenomenal and curves are super smooth. I don't have the driving skills for an M5, or a Porsche, due to spine issues, but this car is perfect for me. I ordered every extra except the 'use the key fob to park the car'. Driving this car is a sublime experience - power, acceleration, solid stance cornering, comfort (the seat adjustability is endless), audio (the Bowers and Wilkens audio is the best I have heard in a car), and pure luxurious fun of driving is incredible. It's far better than the Audi S6 or MB AMG E53 that I also test drove. I love idrive version 7, although miss Google Skyview that I had in my 2018 Audi S5 that I traded. I had a '20 Audi S6 ordered, and canceled due to terrible sales communication. So glad the Audi deal fell apart - the M550i is a superior driving experience, and the rotary dial user interface in the Beem is far better than the multiple touchscreens in the Audi. MB user interface in the E series is terrible
