Love the 5 series. The G30 540d was actually available in the US too -- for one year, I believe. I don't like that they keep removing options with the LCI model though. You use to be able to get the adaptive suspension in the 530i and 530e -- plus other things.
Cool vid Ari... I'm still super stoked with my Alpine white '20 540i, it's an awesome daily driver. Must have been difficult to say bye to that 911. Never saw you say much about that car. Aloha from Maui.
@@mikeydeshore3971 No way is the 540 slow. BMW advertises 4.6 to 4.9 seconds 0 to 60 stock. Real world numbers slightly better, and if you do any simple bolt ons such as JB4, intake, or downpipe, it just gets even more fun. This sedan is the perfect compromise of luxury, comfort, sport, and practicality. M-Sport trim a must.
Hey Ari...love the content you put out...but my 22 kia stinger gt line come pretty much all the same stuff. The app is awesome I can start my car from basically anywhere and control everything. It has some of the most advanced driver safety equipment. And a 15 speaker Harmon Kardon system. And more standard horse power and torque. 300hp and 311tq. All for 39,000
@@CristianHernandez-xh7bz Bro....you can't go wrong. Just don't pay over Msrp. I got the rwd it's much more fun to drive. The gt line with the sun and sound package is the best. It gets lots of attention and people will come up to you and ask what kind of car is that. It's a great daily driver and has enough balls to put most cars in there place...lol. I was tired of Accords and Camrys. I got mine at Kia of Valencia in Southern California
I’m glad you like it. It’s definitely important to talk to owners, instead of car reviewers that have a car for just a few days. Thanks for the reassurance! Are you intending on doing any modifications? Performance or otherwise? And are there any major gripes?
@@CristianHernandez-xh7bz Major grips....na not really. Except I get people always wanting to race me..lol.lop. It's already faster than the 2.0 accord, Toyota camera v6. Faster than the BMW 530,430i...I'm satisfied with the power. The mpg got better after 4,500 miles. Now I can squeeze out 33mpg at 70 miles per hour
@@oceancon I think you need to do better research. I paid 71k for my g80 after tax. Go build a 5 series with a similar engine and all the options in the g80 sport and you are going to spend 89k plus tax. I went to Benz for a e53 and it was 98k plus tax for every option in the g80.

Does it have WAZE integrated? How much storage space does it have? I am partial to the X5.
Cool video, I want to see X5 40i vs X5 M50i
The question is .. BMW 5 or Audi A6?? Ty 🇨🇦
You can kick close your trunk as well same way you kick open it
I have a 530i I love it

very very difficult bad had to do it over a business decision... miss it dearly :(
is the 540i also super slow?

Must have in Massachusetts… tire and wheel insurance.🙈
10,000% Agree
@@negotiationguides I blow the 19s. All day long. Forget the 20s
Why are the residuals so low on these bmw leases? They are like 50% and 51% on x5 and x7 for 36mo/12k
When did you buy that 530i and how much after your superb negotiations skills Ari?
November 2020... I STOLE IT for $598/mo at the time
@@negotiationguides that’s awesome 😎
please tell me the roof light LED
Great video
Thinking about upgrading from my 2017 540i to the newer look model
Unless you're having issues with the current vehicle, Don't! Its literally the same car with minor differences.
Is there no 520i or 520d like in germany?
Cool video, I am even more hyped to get a 5 series in the future.
Thank you
Any chance you could explain the difference between the series for anyone new to bmw??
Just love it... ❤️❤️
Can a short person like myself drive this vehicle?
How r the gear changes? Do the up shifts and downshifts jerk a bit?
You always could have bought the faster model. Good video
Nice!

How do you like the gt line? RWD or AWD? I have been looking at a 2022 gt-line

My genesis g80 sport is 20k less, has a better warranty and is more luxurious. Only knock is the genesis only make 375 horse, which is no slouch.
Tell us where to get a 2022 Genesis G80 sport for 20k less. A quick search shows they are $60k plus for a similar version equipped like the 5 series.

@@oceancon the m550i starts at 76k. Go to bmw USA. That’s the only comparable car. The 530 is only a 4 cylinder.
@@mikeross365 I think he has the 530i which is what I based my comment on
@@oceancon I think so. Still two really nice cars. Both take premium gas which sucks lol.
A Ford Fiesta has remote start 😂.
Ari, I’m disappointed, wanted to see the numbers. That’s what the show is all about
Wow. So sweet 🤤
Long-term BMW not reliable. Cost a lot for repairs and parts. Lease short-term they can be fun.
Ari loves extra! ;)
It’s super super slow lol
like.... VERY VERY slow
👍👍👍
