For me, the E34 M5 is still the best looking 5 series, followed by the E39. The E60 and especially the F10 are amazing machines but I don't like the design.





If I had to consider the current 5 series, and provided I could afford it, I would go for the M550d.

I agree on the e39. The exterior and interior was the epitome of what a BMW should look. Never liked the e34, the kidneys and the tail lights are really ugly.

No matter what vehicle True Adonis rides, it will raise the value of it.

Even riding around in a Horse carriage,one would understand that this is a distinguished gentleman with civilized manners and some coin.

Lol!!

E34 and e39 are iconic

E30, e36 are also good a long with e46 M3 CSL which was never released in the US, e90 M3's are good cause of the v8 but getting heavy and uninspiring steering like on the new heavy m5

bc of competition bmw has lost it's ways as far as enthusiast driving is concerned the competition has caught up a lot and even in comparison it has lost to audi and bmw, something it never has in the past. The wins are minimal at best not as dominant like in the past

Islam is a fucking joke.  If it is honorable to throw acid in the face of their 15 year old daughter then they should set the mothers vagina on fire and have each of the village elders hit the dad in the nuts with a sledgehammer.  That's what you call Islam.  Fucking maggot cocksucking pieces of shit.  How dare they justify killing their daughter for looking not fucking but looking at a guy.  Come on, let's get real.  Islam is the worst hoax of the last 500 years.

BMW and mercedes both downgraded from being a status symbol to an every day car around when Bangle started screwing up their designs.

I was happy to own a black on black E34 very clean and good condition as one of my first cars for a few years.  Then karma catched up to me and I totalled it drivign home from a party, the E34 to me is still the prototypical BMW design from past present and future, they will never design another sedan that embodies BMWs styling

i had a 1995 bmw 730 (the small v8)  a couple of years ago, awesome car and cheap to buy but the fuel cost was not fun. if you are going to buy a old e38 atleast buy a 740.
