BMW 535i has elegance, excitement

Jul 16, 2010 2 Replies

"The 2011 BMW 535i proves familiarity need not be boring. The new sport sedan arrives like the best kind of friend, with whom you are immediately at ease regardless of the time since you saw them last. Slipping behind the 535i's wheel is like continuing a conversation that endures months-long gaps without flagging.



For BMW admirers distressed by the hatchback style of BMW's 5 Gran Turismo, or the Z4 roadster's heavier weight and lessened sportiness, the new 535i reprises the brand's traditional strengths: elegance and excitement.



The 2011 5-series brims with advanced features in a familiar package that has been the world's finest sport sedan for decades."

I could and I'll suggest you pass on these! Once upon a time german autos were the best in the world. Now they are maybe as good as american autos. BMW autos have many reliability problems (the 7 series is the worst reputation, even though it's the most expensive). Mercedes is the same (the S class 500 series are money pits, they are loaded with all sorts of electrical problems).

My lexus is FAR more reliable than the BMW I had (which was a 5 series). The number one complaint about lexus LS autos is the suspension is too soft or mushy.

From doing some research, I found out about this website:

excellent reference for upgrading the suspension on LS400 series. You can follow similar idea for the 430. I wouldn't mess with a 460, but I guess you could do the same.

I did this and my car's handling is almost as good as the BMW. The big difference is the Lexus doesn't need the constant trips to dealer like the BMW did.

lexus ls series = RELIABLE. German cars = UNRELIABLE
