The BMW 525i is a fun car to drive. It is sleek and hugs the curves well when put to the test. Use it mainly for short trips and occasional commuting to work. It has very good power given it's v6 engine. I was disappointed to have to replace the battery a few months after I purchased it with 55,000 miles on it. Other than that it has run smoothly. Although the BMW 525i has a large trunk space, I was disappointed to learn that the back seat doesn't fold down to allow for longer objects to fit in the trunk like other cars that I've owned. The iDrive entertainment system is good and easy to use if you're familiar with working on a computer. I did not like the fact that the center console didn't allow for cables/cords to connect to electronics outside of the compartment easily. There were no holes or openings to do that without keeping the console open slightly.

I love the way the vehicle looks, its a luxury vehicle, and I added some nice 20 inch rims, it made the vehicle look as if I paid over 10,000 dollars for it even though I got for cheap.

The BMW 525 drives like a beautiful machine. It's really suspicious, and the handling is top notch. The engine is powerful and made great. The infotainment system works great -- except when it's cold outside, then sometimes it stops working. The leather is supple, and the speakers are loud. The overall gas cost is high but worth it. Amazing suspension.
