I bought a 2008 BMW 535i and love it!!!!! It is very fast and fun to drive. The stereo system is the best I have ever heard in a vehicle. It is very comfortable and I have NO complaint.

We think the 535i's power is sufficient. However, these N54 motors were known to have some recalls and issues. Make sure they are taken care of before making your purchase.

Hey boss, there's one 535xi up for sale. It's got 160,000kms on it. What you suggest, should I think of buying it now in 2022?

I owned my '08 535i for 4 years before I discovered it had a heated steering wheel. 🤣🤣🤣 (The button to activate it is NOT in plain site.) I live in Wisconsin and the winters here can be super snowy and super cold. Amazingly, I have NEVER had trouble in the snow as it's a rear wheel drive. (I use all season tires.) The heated seats (and steering wheel) are a blessing in the cold and the A/C blows VERY cold. Lots of extras. Blah blah blah. *It being a (twin) turbo change your oil very often. Turbos tend to need good quality CLEAN oil since they spin at ungodly speeds and can fail if not properly maintained. Don't be a cheapskate and change every 7000+ miles. Every 3k-5k miles is what I do and I'm good. I have 200,000 miles and get 30 mpg with cruise set at 70mph. Yes you must use premium fuel.

@landonb2884

Just wondering, have you had any issues whatsoever with the vehicle?

Excellent car. The only thing to look for before buying one is to check for the Westgate rattle, HPFP and turbo leakage. This problem is well known in N54 turbo BMW engines, 535i, 335i etc. It will require you to purchase a brand new set of turbos. So make sure you have a warranty that covers all internally lubricated parts or have the car checked for those issues, even a slight problem can lead to more serious ones. New turbos cost around 2-3 thousand and installation can be over 4 grand. BMW has extended the warranties on the N54 with accordance to the Westgate issue, 8 years 80k miles, whichever comes first from the day the car was originally first sold.

Thanks for the great review, very honest opinions.

What I like about this channel is that they not only talk about the good things about the car, they also talk about the bad things. Some channels on KZread doesn't do that and we all know what KZread channel I'm talking about.

Good car, amazing review thanks!

Nicely done review, loved it.

Excellent review! Very informative and concise. Keep up the good work. Regarding i-drive for potential owners, take 30 minutes and read the manual.

Love your videos! keep them up watch them a lot gear heads delight! :D

Huh, I don't know what planet some of you people are from, but this car is EXCELLENT! I've had this car for several years now and absolutely no problems whatsoever. Purchased the car certified pre-owned and one of the best decisions I've ever made, next to the certified 2003 pre-owned Mercedes Benz C320 I purchased many years ago (RIP-Car Accident); I really enjoyed that car as well. But let's not digress.... Well, if you want a great BMW, that's roomy, strong, fast and reliable this is it. Don't listen to the naysayers. I'm a proud owner and I love it! #BMW535i08

It's a first generation Fusion, we actually have a review of an 06 on the channel already.

added one in the last year. 2k8 and 150k miles for 3 grand. well taken care of and ive enjoyed it alot

the car is very capable on good curvy roads if you know how to drive. the DCT tran is great.

This styling still looks modern today. I like it! BUT, my favorite 5 series will always be the E39..... timeless, imposing front end, and muscular from the right angle.

This was well made, hope the host made more.

I like the F10 5 series, but these are so much more connected and buttoned down feeling... and yes, the V8 is a lot of fun :)

It was by far the best driving generation once you ditched the crappy RFTs though. Firm ride and excellent handling and the comfort seats were probably the most comfortable seats available in a car. I haven't driven an F10 but many F10 owners who had E60s before wish they kept their old E60s.

The E39 5-Series is still my favorite generation.

love the engine note

When these first cars came out I was soo f-ing crazy for this car, I thought it looked so modern and only wished I could afford one..

If im not mistaken, It looks like the previous owner blacked all those things out. I also noticed that it seems to have the Euro headlights with the clear reflector instead of the amber colour!

My mom drives a 2006 525xi, and I love it.

Love my e61. Restoring it now.

SOFYAN! im thinking about getting the 550i. not the newest one but the last generation. what do you think. or is the 535i's power sufficient?

mine doesnt have parking sensor but has more options on the idrive button near the gear, dont know why tho

wich one would u buy bmw 530 2008 wivh is in the video or audi tt 2008 u reviewed?considering that u dont care about the back seat space.

Sofyan, can you do a review on a 2014 Ford Fiesta?! Thanks.

I have a 2008 535i. My question is how come my steering wheel is different than yours? Mine doesn’t have the chrome looking trim on the bottom. Was that and option?

I love these.

Even older BMW cars have that high quality interior~ It's like what Mat Watson from CarWow said, no inch of a BMW interior compromises quality~

What is difference between new and old gear knob.? Is IT ONLY the knob or the transmission as wel?

Just bought this car. Unbelievable for the price it is in.

Very Luxurious Vehicle.

Nice Review Of 2008 BMW 535i. 😁

which one gives you a better driving experience? the 335i or the 535i?

bro wat happen to your hair 😂 2012 huh 👍 good job on the vids. can you do the previous models which are my favortie.

Should I get a 535i or 335i from 2009? (even if the 5 series will have more miles), because I heard the 3 series handles better (as it is smaller)

this is going to be my first car 😳

Great car I think best in white

they sure did, we think the previous owner had good taste. It looks even better on this white exterior color.

He said if you have to have German !! I'm trying got get a way from German cars and I don't like Japanese so which way to go ? Now I'm surprising my self and really thinking about the new Cadillac's specially the CTS . Thank you great review as always ..

The awesome thing about these cars is the amount of power you can get from these n54 engines with some simple ecu chips. 600 bux at Burger Tuning and you get 100 extra horsepower and 120 extra lbs of torque at the crank. You can pick one up for 17k now used.

It's hit or miss. If you pile on the miles the services will add up. Parts can be insanely expensive. Independent shops will cost less than dealers. We had a lot of electrical small things with previous gen 5 series. I'd go for a non-turbo inline 6 for maximum reliability odds, but it's not going to be very fast.

The 2009 version of this car was better. It had a better version of the iDrive and less issues, basically it was the debugged version of this car. I had one for 12 years, every day I drove it, it put a smile on my face.
