Excellent German Automobile

I like this car a lot. It is solidly constructed and very tight. The engine is powerful and fun. While the car handles well, the steering is a bit numb on feedback from the road. The infotainment system is the best I've seen in a car. I'm a previous Mercedes owner and theirs is awful compared to BMW's. The seats are incredibly comfortable. The ride is taut yet smooth. The interior is quieter than my old E class. The interior of this car is sparse compared to the E class. If you want more glitz, you won't find it here which suits me just fine. I like things simple and strong and this car delivers. The car has the ride that the E class should have but doesn't. It's also still sporty enough to make you smile when you step on the gas.

A Classy Smooth Driving Car

As a first time BMW owner, I was NOT disappointed at all. Such a smooth ride, fully loaded, and can comfortably seated five people comfortably.

The acceleration. control and ‘feel of the road’ od a BMW is unmatched. The weight of this V-8 gives stability driver such a sense of stability

Best Ever

This beautiful M550 responses when you wish is reliable in 3 1/2 years has never given me a problem. The custom paint that I had put on makes his truly and beautiful car to admire. You should know that I’ve had six five series BMWs in the last 30 years and this is the first one I’ve held for longer than two years. One of them picked up in Germany and drove on the autobahn. The rest were just normal every day drive to work cars. This is the same one, but it’s a classic gorgeous BMW, when it starts to give me trouble, I will have difficulty departing with it.

Customer Satisfaction on NO concern to BMW

We took two short test drives in this model. The first must have had the contour seats. The second was in the car we purchased which had the sport line Dakota Leather cognac seats. Seeing there was a $1500 upgrade cost and the 5 minute drive was wonderful I did not give it a second thought. The very next day while taking a 2 hour drive my legs became numb and painful. The HARD wings on these narrow seats dig into the back of my legs. A call to the dealership resulted in "you can adjust the seats and widen them". True for the back but not the actual seat portion. A call to BMW headquarters in NJ resulted in "sorry there is nothing we will do for you since the car is built correctly." SO before buying be aware of these seats and BMW's insensitivity and disinterest in your satisfaction.

A True Driving Machine

With its Combination of power, quite smooth ride and more creature comforts you have to watch your speed or it would take off it only had wings. It drives in the way that has made BMW a legend and has comforts that make it possible to arrive fresh even after driving all day. Truly a great car to drive.
