Had an e39 for 9 years, never regretted one moment. A fairly advanced car even today, but at the same time the last of the classic 5-series when it comes to design... Miss it every day.
I know the E39 gets the most love but my 1975 530i E12 was so clean, classic and fun. I will maintain that going 100mph on the FDR Drive in night time New York City while listening to Beethoven's "Moonlight" was truly a great experience. The contrapunto of that beautiful music while shredding the pavement was glorious.
I love my e28! 1988 Super ETA that I never get tired of driving after 14 years of ownership. I found it in a yard for $500.00 and now with a little TLC and maintenance, it's now worth $6500.00 according to KBB classic. Unbelievable!
Bmw e39 for life it's so emotional and humble... Look at the car in person... I have 2 in my garage... They made it with passion especially with those flamming yellow angel eyes.. E39 rules
My first car was a e28, drove it around half a year and traded it for a e34 with the m-tech trim. That one cracked the cylinder head of the old M50b25 engine so i got rid of it and went for a E39 530d manual facelift model. Had that car for almost 4 years with almost zero issues and loved it alot. I swapped for a F10 530xd M-Sport three weeks ago and im loving the car so far. i have to say that what appeals to me in the 5 series is that even if its a generation or three apart there is always something familiar in these cars. Love them.
Used to own a 530 six cilinder automatic from '89. Something went wrong with the engine so I had to say goodbye to it. I sometimes still dream about that car. The sound of the engine alone..
A brand that makes evolution rather than revolution. BMW preserves its character despite costant and regular improvement and upgrade. That's why it has always been a leading brand in motor industries.
The E12 was a gorgeous, balanced car right out of the gate. E28 was slight evolution of perfection. E34, boring refinement and reliability. E39 the last BMW I'd ever want to own.
With all due respect for others, but my list is topped by the e39 because none of them reach the luxury and sporting character of this true German hit. Second, the e34 because it showed the route through which the true executive cars that enjoyed reliability and elegance had to travel and finally the e60 for its leap in modernity without forgetting its roots of class, reliability and sporty touch of this series. The later series very aesthetic but zero reliability and excessive maintenance costs. Greetings to all BMW 5 series lovers
My first car is a 92 525i E34 and I couldn’t be happier about it. Sure it’s got some problems here and there but it hasn’t let me down once in my 6 months of owning it now. Already out 12k Kilometers on it
35 years ago i had my first 5-serie a E12 525 1975. My car dident have powerstering which it realy should have had to be plesent to drive.That was the second BMW for me. The first car i had was a 2002 from 1972. Later i had a E39 530 touring 2001 and now i drive a E60 530 Ix 2006 during wintertime. The 5-serie car that i love the most is my E34 Alpina B10 3,5 from 1991 that i currently own. I bought the car 2007 and that is the longest time i ever kept a car. Bmw make great cars. Alpina makes them so much nicer. My absolut favorit of the 20 cars i owned is a 3-serie the F31 Alpina D3 2014 that is my daily in the summer. It is my first diesel. Never thought i would love a dieselcar but it is so nice and a all through lovely car. My son has a F10 550i. That car is wonderful, but can be a pain if/when the motor brakes.
easier than the e34? don't get me wrong, I had 2 E39 528i's but never owned a e34. I would assume since it has fewer parts/electronics it would be easier to live with.
First bm I drove was anE30 and that started it all off,then it was e28 then about 6 E34 an e28 e39 now back to the e34 and although I have a soft spot for the e39 I’ll stick with mine as it’s so easy to work on and super reliable
I saw the new model 5-er wrapped in black-white plastic driving close to Munich yesterday!!! It gets one of these tall lights at the back a 7-er has it now!!
After the e34, it all blah. Very few people realize the first five was actually the last E3. I love the E3, E28 & E34. Even though I have an E12, it was kinda the middle child of the 5series.
Had e39 & 2 E60's. Loved all of them but I wish the parts weren't so expensive. Now have an Audi as so many bits are used in other vw group cars its so much cheaper to maintain
Ich hatte ab E34 alle 5er gehabt, aktuell den G30. Bei keinem der Modelle hatte ich großartig Probleme. Bin dennoch bei all den Fortschritt beim E60 hängengeblieben, noch nicht mal eine Glühbirne war mir in den 4 Jahren(2007-2011) ausgefallen.
With the interior and exterior of the E39. BMW achived perfection. No other 5 series has ever looked soo good inside or out.
Had an e39 for 9 years, never regretted one moment. A fairly advanced car even today, but at the same time the last of the classic 5-series when it comes to design...
Miss it every day.
E39 is the best. timeless.
Moritz Schmidt e39
Disagree e34 is my love.
@@The_Pessimist I think so E34 is timeless
So true
Mtge E39 is my first car

😍
E34 and E39 still beautiful to this day. I wish I had not sold my E34!!
soundseeker63 I've E34 also in 1993.
e39 M Sport is the most beautiful BMW ever built in my opinion.
@Im Rosin I always wanted a e46, as I like 3 series better
Do you all know the backsound on e34 one?
Just bought a F10 with only 14k miles on it two weeks ago. Absolutely love.
E39 Interieur unreachable. Even over 20 years later so pleasant like no any other car. Also E38 ;)
E38&e39
The two best cars
E28, e34, e39, the three best
I love my e28! 1988 Super ETA that I never get tired of driving after 14 years of ownership. I found it in a yard for $500.00 and now with a little TLC and maintenance, it's now worth $6500.00 according to KBB classic. Unbelievable!

e34 the grand boss
E60 And e39 Best 5 series

I really like f10 generation. It looks like BMW should, not over designed, also earliest ones are starting to get somewhat affordable.
E 39 was BMW at its peak
*E39 is my favourite!*
Used to own a 530 six cilinder automatic from '89. Something went wrong with the engine so I had to say goodbye to it. I sometimes still dream about that car. The sound of the engine alone..
For me, the best is e39
e28 is beautiful

Unlike Toyota where cars with same name over the years have nothing in common other than the name Toyota 😂😂😂
purely like for super legendary E34 and the rest so so and someday will become legends
My e39... I love 5er!!!!
+Erwin Schrödinger е 39 the best car. i love my 530 d
Moritz Schmidt how much was your insurance
E60 best, loved and owned an e39 but biggest jump forward in styling and equipment was e60 still look great now miles ahead of its time
E39 😍
I had a e39 it was my first BMW... now i just ordered the new G30 530xd 😊😊
Juan Ignacio Caino LOL! 🤣
The E12 was a gorgeous, balanced car right out of the gate. E28 was slight evolution of perfection. E34, boring refinement and reliability. E39 the last BMW I'd ever want to own.
E39, only reasonable answer. Not only the most beautiful 5 serie, but the most beautiful car ever.

E34 the best! 80s and 90s rules!
Е39 is still the most beautiful... The last one has no personality.
E39.
E28 and E39.
E39 all the waay
E34 too sorry

E39 best looking and easiest to live with

All of the bmw 5 series .I love e39

the f10 is the newer, updated version of the legendary e39. I like the f10
E39 unsurpassed. I have a 1997 528i E39 and it is still superb.
What is the colour of that E34? Delphingrau?
The BMW E39 and the BMW E34 are the best
E34 and E39 ✔️✔️
I saw the new model 5-er wrapped in black-white plastic driving close to Munich yesterday!!! It gets one of these tall lights at the back a 7-er has it now!!
I daily a 1995 525i (e34) and also slowly restoring a 1984 528 :D
Daily a 1988 520i with the M20 engine :D hoping to get a wintercar soon so I won't have to drive it during the salty winter though.
E39 with a 5 speed is driving bliss, add a V8 and it becomes nirvana, go for the M5 badge and it is the ultimate driving machine.
You should be my wife,lol
Sarah Minifie
Yes
I own a e28 :)
The E60 age like a fine wine!
had a '99 model 528. best car I've ever owned
yup me too
Do you know the backsound music name on e34 and e39
E34 with the S68 V10 plus ESS supercharger is my dream car.
I have e60 528i.i think best of best bmw 5series.e60 is everything is satisfying engine sounds and feeling performance.
OooooH MY LOVE THE E60 V10
Ochisorii specifici cu sprancenute dragute 😍🚗
got my first E39 about week ago and in love it.
E39 and only E39, hands down
it's crazy how the e34 had nothing and the e39 has everything that a brand new g30 has.
Technology was evolving rapidly during the 20th century. It had to slow down at some point.
I had the chance to own an e60 great car and performance no doubt but the electric part had issues 👍
I like how the 1970 cars bounces
I had the E61 and currently I have the F11 ☺️
Seriously E60 is good and beautiful and looks better than F10 myopinion.
AnotherMaggot:
Not than F10 with LED-Headlights 😉
@@_mr.heisenberg_ yea man! 🙂🙂 F10 black yes looks better than g30 too.
@@_mr.heisenberg_ F10 was last great G30 ain't good
80s models is the best!
Love them and have experienced them all! Currently own an f10 535i and I love it! Would love to still have an e39 540i in my possession
Good choice!
The first four absolutely legendary and beautiful
Just bought my third e39
I love them
The E28
Please can I have the title of the music to 9:30 at 11:32 ?
E34 for me but I’d be happy with any 5 up to the E60
the new 5 series is so an updated version of the E39. Especially the interior. Skip the model that came between them
Alex S I cant see any resemblance
E39 al day long
Thank you 🙏 so fantastic .
E34 is the best bimmer
Che grande auto la Bmw serie 5!! Bellissima!
Where is BMW 1500
F10 is the best BMW ever made.
0:09 I didn't know James May played in these commercials...
E39, F10 Facelift😻
日本人のデザインしたE39は海外でも評価が高いんだね、保守的で美しい。
保守的で美しいという表現に納得です。私は自動車としてE34が最高と思います。
E39 ✌️
I have a E60 530d 370.000 km 😙
E39
You saw on first photo. Winners stands in the middle. E34 & E39.
E34-E60 is where it's at.
е39 salon its e38 salon,,but small !!!!:-)
Exactly
E60 ❤️
E60 is the best 5 series!!
Lmao
Moritz Schmidt e39
wow my e39 ❤️
After the e34, it all blah. Very few people realize the first five was actually the last E3. I love the E3, E28 & E34. Even though I have an E12, it was kinda the middle child of the 5series.
E34 Die besten.
E60 is the best Modell of all the Time
E39 is boss
Had e39 & 2 E60's. Loved all of them but I wish the parts weren't so expensive. Now have an Audi as so many bits are used in other vw group cars its so much cheaper to maintain
E28
pity we didn't see much of the rear of the earlier models
E34 it's very BMW
F 10 ❤️
BMW E34
BMW is the best
E60 is the best looking
Ich hatte ab E34 alle 5er gehabt, aktuell den G30. Bei keinem der Modelle hatte ich großartig Probleme.
Bin dennoch bei all den Fortschritt beim E60 hängengeblieben, noch nicht mal eine Glühbirne war mir in den 4 Jahren(2007-2011) ausgefallen.
E60 550 i !!!!!
Very Fast !!!
Nice view of the 5 series, & how it evolutions from 1972cto2016.
