Why the 2008 BMW 5-Series?

Fuel economy

I drive 500+ highway miles weekly. I needed a comforable ride with good fuel economy. I am averaging 30 mpg on the highway at 70+ MPH in Florida

Feature availability

The hands free phone system is wonderful. My blackberry integrates seamlessly through bluetooth. My ipod integrates seamlessly as well. Phone lists and playlists from the devices all show up on the iDrive system. The auto climate system is excellent.

Quietness

Road noise is minimal. Phone conversations on the hands free system are effortless. Most quiet car I have ever owned.

Front seat support & comfort

The sport seats offer exceptional levels of adjustment. I especially like the extendable leg support and the tilt of the upper back. The lumbar in the sport seats adjusts in up and down as well.

Materials & workmanship

The fit and finish on my new 528i were excellent. Not a flaw found yet.
