@japanwatchconnection "They are well built today. My G30 5 Series has been excellent" Since there is no way that you can experience all G30's that was produced, your logic is established as such; "Your G30 is well built, therefore all G30's are well built." This is quite a false reasoning line.
I think the current BMW lineup looks nice aside from the 2-Series Gran Coupe (Kia Forte clone?), the 4-Series/M4/M3 (why???), and the X7. Everything else that they currently make looks sharp.
The E39 is my all time favorite BMW 5-Series. They just got every aspect perfect on that car in my opinion. No wonder nice examples of the E39 M5 cost almost as much as a new one.
Reliable? Hahahaha... German autos were notorious for being extremely unreliable in the '80s. They are a million times more reliable today. They were so unreliable back then, there was even a saying for them, "Sell the car before the tires are worn." 🤣
@@OhgodImtoosexy i see you dont know anything about cars. Say it to 1980-90's passat, vectra or w124 owners in my town who drive them for decades and had run over 500k km
Damn that was better than super car territory for breaking, actually better.. However inflation adjusted this was like a $70,000 car for the entry-level model, he said it started at 37K
My brother bought one of these from an auction but it was a 525i. The thing was so reliable. He sold it to a family friend with over 200k miles. They drove it another 100k miles before their son flipped it and totaled. They said it still drove fine and had no issues before the rollover.
I still love this wonderful car, it’s held up well , I especially like the M5 edition! Only bugaboo for me was the red optics, n the cheesy instrumentals!! That 6 cylinder was and still is a gem 💎 ‼️‼️
What’s cheesy about the gauge cluster? BMW basically kept it like this until the late 2000s - and it was gorgeous! Also the orange backlight is iconic and very soothing on night rides.
I had a 1990 525i 5 speed, a 1990 750iL and, now, a 1990 535i Auto, much like the one in the video except Bronzitbeige metallic. One owner car - love it! :)
They said that having an airbag meant that the steering wheel had to be in a fixed position. Some cars with a passenger airbag in those days “couldn’t have a glovebox.” Gotta laugh at comments like that today.
That's a US thing only though. The W126 had those issues due to space and the Golf III. But E32 started implementing airbags in 1986 with adjustable column. I guess some stupid regulations again
This E34 5-Series, and E32 7-Series were lightyears ahead of the competition! And very reliable also - if looked after. The 540i manual and M5 were cars in a class of its own, and epic cars then - and today! Those were the "BMW heydays", not the ugly and "uninvolved" unreliable rubbish BMW sell nowadays...
I had one of these with a 5 speed and a catalytic converter delete and a cold air intake. It put 240 hp to the wheels. It was a sleeper. Cat delete really opens up that engine
I appreciate how reviews like this were more catered towards their audience. Anyone shopping for a NEW 5-series doesn't care about cost, not when it's only 5 or 10 extra grand on an already mid-level priced car. Even now adays, with prices pretty significantly higher, most people don't go "Well, I'd buy the BMW, but the Jaguar is 8 grand cheaper" . . .no, if you're shopping for a 5-series, only a 5-series will do. If you're in the market for an E-Class, only an E-Class will do. Kudos to whoever laid things out for this review as they truly understood their audience.
So, were these or are these reliable for a BMW? My Aunt had one and I grew up in the back seat of it. Always rolling the windows up and down with my cousin on our way to Church. I loved the armrest back there. We hated church but our aunt promised to take us to Toys R Us after. She never did. Guess she couldn't afford it, driving a BMW and all. She was a banker. Always cut people off and drove a bit above the speed limit all the time. Her 5 Series always looked immaculate. I can still smell the leather.
I remember riding in one of these when they were new and couldn’t believe it had rear A/C vents! So luxurious! 😂 Seriously though it was a very neat car when it came out.
Sadly, some of this amazing generation of BMW were eligible to be traded in under the Cash For Clunkers scheme. There are a couple of engine kill videos on TH-cam. Always wanted one of these but they're now starting to appreciate in value.
Is it me or did anyone else think that they were watching this and 240 P resolution adjusted my resolution to 1080 and realize it was not my phone it was the camera from back in the 80s lol. 🤪
I had two E30's of this vintage, back in the day. an 89 325is and a 91 325is. I always wanted a 5 series of those years. never had the pleasure of owning one.
Yeah, BMW realigned its pricing over the years as did Mercedes. For example, I had a leased MY 2000 528i sport (kinda the equivalent of this car since the next car up in 2000 was the 8 cylinder) and its MSRP adjusted for today would be under $70K.
Its funny how everyone points out about reliability then vs now. Well guess what,it’s just not BMW 🤪 Welcome to 2021 folks. Even my damn napkins have gone down in quality.
When *W’s* were beautiful and somewhat reliable. All gone these days. They werent only beaten by the japanese. They were ran over in every single step. Wonderful and classic automobile.
As far as luxury cars go I'd take a Lexus over a bmw any day even back then in the 90s when Lexus was new they were still better then beemers..hell I still see those old early 90s model Lexus on the road..as long as you keep up with oil changes and change out the timing chain on those old 4 cam v8s they will last over 300k miles easy..
@@jdubskiwright2380 Absolutely right. Lexus'es from back then were EVEN MORE reliable than the current ones, which keep great(I just dont love their current looks). BMWs from 80s were kinda good. But after Acura, Infiniti and Lexus, the Titanic of german cars began to sink. Like you, I'd also go with the Lexus.
Such a handsome car. The E34 and E39 were the peak of 'modern' BMW design. The E28 was great too but a little awkward with the US spec 5-mph bumpers. The bottom fell out with the still ungainly E60.
What century are you typing from? E65 1st time BMW outsold Mercedes, that designer has since doubled volume with X crossovers in segments BMW didn't even compete in last century. Why do self-proclaimed enthusiasts & fans live in the past & want BMW to fail? Ungainly E60 only V10 M5 in their history, have you ever heard 1? Driven 1? Who cares what it looks like? Like today's GRILLES, actual drivers don't see them & actual buyer$ don't care. Only trolls, of which apparently there are more than there are BMWs.
This was the BEST BMW I ever had and I'm on my 15th . I had a 92 535, 5 speed I could pass anybody at that time it was a rocket the only thing that broke on mine was the drive shaft guibo from hard launches constantly and never ever gave me a problem it was super reliable and fast and car that got respect on the road from those who knew...I can't believe I'm describing a BMW LOL... oh and it was stolen from me so that's gotta tell you something huh
BMWs were so simple back then. No iDrive, no infotainment, not even a easy to use climate control system. I’m sure this 5-Series is smaller than the current G20 3-Series sedan.
This is when BMW made good cars that didn't take a computer scientist to figure out the controls. While the ventilation controls are a little weird, when you live with them for a while they make sense.
Huh some of these features described as standard must have been US specific standard like the leather seats and the electric adjustment. That steering wheel is also odd for 1989 as here in Australia the E34's didn't get airbags till a few years later, my 1991 535i has no airbags at all as standard and has an adjustable Column. I believe the engine was also down tuned a bit for US sale but not by a huge amount. The change in air-conditioning/heating controls mentioned being introduced a year later also wasn't the case with my aforementioned 91 having the same system shown.
About 5 years ago I found a mint 1990 535i for sale in LA. I drove it and had a full diagnostic done that came back perfectly. It was black on black with the 5 speed. I offered $4k. He accepted. I got to the bank right after they closed, by minutes. Told the owner to hold it 24 hours. He sold it at 10am the next day. I think about that car every day, the one that got away.
Did the same thing with a Bavaria in early '80's because it was automatic, called him back as soon as I got home, already gone. Had to buy my dream car E9 instead (also auto.).
