New 5-series editions at Geneva 2008

Refined luxury: BMW 5 Series Edition Exclusive




The BMW 5 Series Edition Exclusive focuses on most sophisticated style and elegance with supreme quality all round. Indeed, this claim is borne out clearly at very first sight by the exclusive paintwork in Platinum Bronze Metallic and with a further choice of five additional metallic colours.

Both the Saloon and the Touring gain additional style through Chrome Line on the side window surrounds, the window shaft covers and the screenwasher nozzles, as well as high-gloss Satin Chrome on the B-pillars and the window trim on the rear doors.

A further sign of distinction is the 17-inch light-alloy wheels in V-spoke design, while electrically adjustable comfort seats, high-quality cowhide in Black or Tobacco with appropriate contrast seams and wood inlays in bamboo grain Anthracite likewise serve to provide a luxurious ambience.


Modern class: BMW 5 Series Edition Lifestyle




The BMW 5 Series Edition Lifestyle offers a most sophisticated combination of elegance and extravagance. This special model comes with a choice of six metallic paintwork colours, among them exclusive Neptune Blue. Apart from Satin Chrome on the B-pillars, the window shaft covers and the side window surrounds, 17-inch light-alloy wheels in double-spoke design round off the sophisticated look of the car. Discreet, grey wooden inlays in poplar grain and the roof lining in anthracite create a particularly aesthetic ambience within the interior, the upholstery coming either in Reflex, a special combination of cloth and leather or, as an option, in Dakota leather.


Pure driving pleasure: BMW 5 Series Edition Sport




The BMW 5 Series Edition Sport is unusually dynamic and muscular in its looks and style. In this case the athletic lines of the body are accentuated by powerful colours, for the first time offering the customer the choice of Imola Red and Le Mans Blue inspired by motorsport over and above the other colour options.

Further features are the M Sports Suspension, 18-inch M light-alloy wheels in dual-spoke design, an M Streamlining Package, and high-gloss Shadow Line on the side window surrounds and window shaft covers on the Edition Sport 5 Series.

The interior comes with appropriately matched colours and interior trim in aluminium. The sports seats, in turn, are finished as standard in Flashlight, a unique combination of cloth and leather or, as an option, in Dakota leather. Comfort seats are also available as an option, and the roof lining in Anthracite, an M footrest, an M leather steering wheel and – on manual gearbox models – an M gearshift lever knob round off the sporting impression.

Clever choice: BMW 5 Series Comfort Package

Parallel to the introduction of the new Edition Models, the BMW 5 Series is also available with the new Comfort Package. This very practical equipment package comprises the most popular options such as bi-xenon headlights with a headlight washing system, Comfort Access, automatic Soft Close on the doors, as well as through-loading for the BMW 5 Series Saloon and, respectively, automatic operation of the rear lid on the Touring

Before I got my E60, I hated the E60, then the design grew on me...now I think that car looks beautiful.

I have been an E60 hater but I must admit I do like the looks of the 550i Sport. The bumpers and wheels improve the looks big time. It also doesn't hurt to be painted LeMans Blue.

Looks great, but I just wish they'd separate those exhaust pipes like on an M or like on the 335. I just can't deal with asymmetry!
