The 2003 BMW 5 Series (530i): Avoid At All Costs Unless.....

Date of Review:  Aug 15, 2003
The Bottom Line: A wonderful car that BMW will have a tough time duplicating.
Review: Imagine my luck when I went to pick up my BMW 325 recently and found that the mechanics had lost the keys. I had to leave for Pittsburgh before the service department was going to open the following day and, therefore, was provided with their last...

BMW 530i (manual transmission)

Date of Review:  Feb 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: No question, one of the finest mid-size luxury sedans in the world. More sport and style than any other car in the class.
Review: The 530i was at the top of the list of cars to drive when looking for a mid-size luxury sedan. It sat atop the cache list with the Mercedes E-class, yet found itself alone when 'sport' sedan was the goal.

Now, the E-class is certainly one...

Simply Flawless

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: This car is not only a worry free investment but I believe it will become a highly prized and sought after collectible in the next 30 years!
Review: I still get goosebumps thinking about how fortunate I was to buy the 2003 BMW 530iA with automatic transmission after its high rating in Consumer Reports for that year. I ordered it over the Internet from my local Stevens Creek BMW dealer and was...

Never thought I'd love the 530i more than my VW!

Date of Review:  May 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: The perfect family sedan but not a soccer-mom-mobile! Could be driven for any occasion... business, family, road trip, you name it. Would recommend!
Review: I got married last year, and my husband and I had 4 cars between us, and only one had 4 doors, this 530i that his father had left him after he passed away 6 months after he had bought it. When we talked about which cars to keep I must admit I was a...

BMW 2003 530i vs. 540i (automatic transmission)

Date of Review:  Dec 30, 2003
The Bottom Line: You will not regret buying a 5-series of any engine type. But if you like fast, don't cheat yourself out of the spirit- and mind-blowing 540i.
Review: My husband and I made the mistake of driving a 2003 540i when we were shopping for an X5. We bought the X5 for its AWD and "sport 'activity' vehicle" personality, but we couldn't get the impressive 540i out of our minds (or souls, for that matter!)...

The 2003 BMW 530i in late 2005

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: Finest car ever rated by CR in 2003 and nothing has come along to match it since.
Review: I am not an expert but I can and do read car reviews. Therefore, in November 2005, I bought a 2003 BMW 530i automatic with all the original options from its original owner . The car was made in April 2003 so it is 2 years and about 6 months old. I...

BMW 5 series saftey(540i)

Date of Review:  Jun 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: If safety is an issue for the purchase of your next car... pay the extra for a BMW.
Review: Just this morning my mother was driving me to school when someone hit the rear, left side wheel well of our 03 BMW 540i at around 40 miles an hour by a Ford Focus. After the collision, our car did a 360 spin and winded up on the onramp of a local...
