5 Series My driving impressions: BMW 535d (272hp/560nm)


The BMW 5 Series is an executive car manufactured and marketed by BMW since 1972. The car is sold as either a sedan or, since 1991, a station wagon (marketed as "Touring"). A 5-door fastback (marketed as "Gran Turismo") was sold between 2009 and 2017. Each successive generation has been given an internal G-code designation since 2017. Previously, a F-code designation was used between 2010 and 2016, while an E-code designation was used between 1972 and 2010. These are used to distinguish each model and generation from each other.

I know I posted this over at GCF but since this was my first diesel (and fastest diesel) I tried, its worth posting again. :D

The engine winner in category 2.5-litre to 3-litre has been driven, 535d, 272hp and 560Nm. More torque than the M5 E60. And tell you the truth, this is the first modern diesel I ever driven.
Start the engine and you can hear a little noise that this is a diesel but when you drive away, you won't notice it anymore.

The car had almost everything, even head-up display and that was a cool thing. Look out of the window and you can see how fast you can go. I never driven a car with head-up display before but I liked it, you dont have to look down to see how fast you go, just look at the window.

The best part with this car is the engine. I'm telling the truth here but 545i owners and even M5 E39 owners should be careful, do a kick-down and I can honestly tell you, at least 545i owners are going to have some serious problems with this car. The force is awesome and you can feel how you being pushed back in the seat.

There are tuners out there for this car, one of them offer a 360hp with 700Nm, I'm sure this car will be faster than a M5 E39.

Seriously, if V8 isnt important, 545i owners should try this car cause you going to be impressed. You are saving a lot of fuel costs too if you choose a 535d over a 545i.

I was impressed by this diesel. The V8 diesel is still left, 330hp and 750nm :shock:

Have u heard of the DMS 535??
All it is a chip upgrade and the car puts out 330 hp and 470 pounds of torque!!!
It was on BMW magazine. If you would like to know more tell me. Don't you have a 535d??
 
yes I've heard about it. There are also a tuning company offering 350hp for your 535d :banana:
 
If they can get that power out of a 3 litre I6, then think what they will do with the V8 in the 745d....

Not to mention the 745d already has 330 hp. That will top the E39 M5 for sure.
