1992 BMW 5 Series 525i review from North America
"I would highly recommend this car to anyone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace one coil pack because of a misfire problem.
I had to replace the transmission at about 170,000 miles.
General comments?
I love this car. I've owned all types of sports cars and this car handles like a Mustang GT with room for the family. It still does not use any oil even at 200k miles.
It is also very safe. I hit a deer at 60 MPH and the car protected me and my family.
What more could a guy want, performance, safe, economical (28 mpg).
WOW!!
