BMW Msport 65000 miles v8 w/manual and is real gem.

Incredible handling with msport option. Surpringly Very good gas milrshe with 6 speed reliable manual transmission. Only differences vs. m5 are slightly lower torque, hp and some badging. Very rare. Less than 1500 imported to US. Better built than newer models.

Superior work on my 525i.

The 525i has proven to be exactly hat they told me it would be and then some. Terrific engineering, quality product, built to last and excel. The perfect model for me and my size and great styling. I have told dozens and dozens of professional peers that the 525i is the best car for them and a value for everyone.

Love my sport wagon

I bought my BMW 525i sport wagon from a mechanic shop (that works on German cars only) as a used car. I fell in love with it immediately! What a car! Who knew that a 2003 BMW would have all the bells and whistles. Would I recommend one to others?...yes I would

Best example of this model I have seen. Comfortable, quiet nice lines, just a great car, flawless paint, upholstery quiet responsive to accelerator.

See above I don't know any more to say about this great automobile, but It is a great example of BMW Styling, mechanics, construction and has been one of the most desirable sought after models. With the looks go the great 540 V8 engine that makes the car accelerate rather quickly and maintain highway speeds with enough power to get the top speed way past the Autobahn speed limits. With brakes that stop on a dime,you have the most safety you could expect. Beautiful uphpolstery comfortable seating , sun roof, luggage cover for privacy, Silent muffler and easy controls on the dash board, no blind spots to hamper the driver's vision, no wrecks, mechanical repair to assure safe, dependable motoring.

BMW 530I Appraisal

Great car, wouldn't change it. Had some major issues but decided to invest in repair, now a keeper. Love the drive and solid feel, worth the investment and much less than replacing. Would think the durability and quality would have been much better for a BMW for some major components, especially considering the initial cost..

It hates me sometimes

I love her but sometimes she doesn't love me! She drives like a god on wheels! But then some problems might occur and she will demand a payment of your soul but I can't leave her she's good to me but she hates me its toxic but its love. I will miss her when she's gone I will miss the power the handelihanthe performance but I won't miss her medical bills. She is my favorite car I've ever owned but she is also my bane. Veronica you are the greatest worst car ever I will always cherish you......

Great vehicle!

I have had this vehicle since it came off the assembly line, have little to no problems. Would not change or get rid of it. Also must add I have gotten my moneys worth.

2003 BMW 540 MSport 6MT

An absolute beast of a car. Feels remarkably stable and stuck to the pavement. Is very responsive and super fun to drive. I grin from ear to ear every time I drive it. A timeless design that still looks good today.

REVIEW OF MY 2003 BMW 530i

MY PURCHASE IN 2003 WAS BASED ON THE "CONSUMER REPORT AUTO ISSUE" IN APRIL 2003 THEY RATED THE CAR AS THE BEST THEY EVER TESTED AND I FULLY AGREE. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS NOW ALMOST 13 YEARS OLD IT IS FUN TO DRIVE. THE RIDE IS QUIET, THE ACCELERATION GREAT AND I GET RESPECT FROM OTHER PEOPLE AND DRIVERS. AFTER 78000 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR, RADIATOR AND COOLANT TANK.

One owner car

I am the original owner. Although it is a spendy auto to maintain, it is still very powerful and drives nicely.
