  • Car for sale at Wearnes. This is one of the last versions of the BMW 5 Series to come with a naturally-aspirated inline-6 engine before the 2.0-litre turbo came to dominate the line-up in 2012.
    The 523i was locally-assembled, and was powered by BMW's 2.5-litre N52 engine that made 201hp and 250Nm. It was mated to ZF's 8HP 8-speed automatic, one of the earliest users of this transmission model.
    This particular unit at Wearnes asks for higher than market value, but it does give you peace of mind as the car went through significant repairs and restoration before being put on sale. The 523i is typically going for RM80-90k these days, but once you factor in repairs, your net expense will certainly cross the RM100k mark.

      Get the E300 3.0 if buying w212, skip the E200. Comes with all the bells and whistles and a less complicated engine which means fewer repair.

      Yup... a bit lacking in torque to pull the F10's heavy body enthusiastically, but creamy smooth. More satisfying than the later 4-cylinder turbos, but also needs to be worked harder.

    This particular unit looks to be in fantastic condition for its vintage. I remember this generation 523/520i Pre LCI rims were downright ugly, not sure why BMW did it.... but yes, they fixed it in the LCI. All bar the 535i didn’t get keyless entry which was a bit stupid, and the button paint peeling was a common issue in the early units, the LCI fixed it. Also, didn’t have paddle shifters which was another weird one on BMW Malaysia. I’m surprised this unit has the updated navigation, the 2010 one had a tiny screen (believe it was the 6.5”).
    As for the engine, from what I was told the Malaysian 2.5 (carry over from E60) was purposely chosen for this market (and a few others in the region) because of the climate if I’m not mistaken so that is something to be weary. And definitely, 108k is not cheap, but if you could get this unit for 100k, I think you’re in a great price as trust me, most of the Mudah cars are in rougher shape and higher mileage. If I were to buy used, I personally would either buy this over the 520i, yes this has a higher road tax and yes, this also has a higher (slightly) fuel consumption in the real world, but you don’t have to deal with the rubbish auto start stop from 2012, and realistically speaking this car has the same equipment as that 2012 520i. Fun fact, for a base model, this car had a lot of under the skin equipment, like electronic damper control and if I’m not mistaken, it should have integral active steer (which is not available after the F10 Pre LCI in Malaysia). Great car, looks to be in fantastic condition.

      In 1916, I contacted my local BMW dealer and asked that they find me a two year old 535i. They called me a couple of days later with news of a find. It's a black 535i, with matching black leather interior. It has the twin turbo three litre inline six engine, eight speed automatic, X Drive and the M Sport package. Wonderful car, great to drive, and now I'm thinking of moving up to the M5, so it's time to call on my dealer again.

      Definitely NA. Less complexity and gentler wear and tear. You do pay double the road tax of a two litre car, however, and you'll have 6 spark plugs and ignition coils to change as opposed to just 4.

    • @ngyc6294
      @ngyc6294 5 років тому

      It depends. For eg. the company I work at provides a generous amount of allowance for senior directors, this allows them to change D-segment cars as frequent as once in every 5yrs when the factory warranty is almost due. These cars are also usually low mileage as they travel abroad frequently, with the cars usually used from and to work, and they have at least another SUV and MPV at home for weekend family activities..

      Performance a little lethargic by today's standards. Good if you appreciate the smooth-revving 6-cylinder engine, but for most people, the 2.0 turbo versions are more complete all-rounders. Get a 535i if budget permits
