2008 BMW 5 Series review

Free Auto Price Quote Car Insurance Quote

A more streamlined-looking exterior marks the main changes in the 2008 BMW 5 Series group of luxury sedans, convertibles, and wagons. The 528i Sedan comes standard with a 3.0L 230hp I6 engine, as does the 528xi Sedan, but with all wheel drive. Jacking up the power a notch, the 535i and 535xi Sedans, and 535xi Sports Wagon all come with a 3.0L 300hp engine. Achieving unparalleled acceleration and torque, the 550i Sedan is endowed with a 4.8L 360hp V8.

The interior features of the 5 Series have been updated, with added padding to the door panels, control for the MP3 player inserted into the steering wheel, as well as added storage options. Most of the changes to the interior of the 5 Series are minor, such as the addition of two color door motif and the changes to the shifter. An important standard feature of the 2008 BMW 5 is the side airbags mounted in the front doors, which deploy during the more dangerous side, and off center collisions.

BMW Series 5 sedans, convertibles and wagons offer as standard an array of technologically sophisticated features that are intended to add convenience and safety. The use of drive by wire for engaging the accelerator and shifting gears assures more control and requires less effort. For safety, the three-point seat belt attachment and enhanced crumple zones add a larger margin of protection to driver and passengers.

Be it poplar or bamboo, the wood trim on the 2008 BMW 5 Series sedans is part of an ensemble of stylistic touches that distinguish the 5 Series as a power player in the segment. Wood trim on the shifter, Dakota leather upholstery, and alloy bezels bracketing the gauges attest to the quality materials that are included in every BMW 5.
