The BMW 535i and its sportier sibling, the M535i, were iconic models that graced the roads from 1981 to 1988. The E28 generation of the 5 Series saw the introduction of the 535i, featuring a powerful 3.4-liter inline-six engine that produced a respectable 182 horsepower. This engine, paired with a smooth five-speed manual transmission, provided a spirited driving experience. The 535i was lauded for its refined handling, thanks to its independent suspension and precise steering. It offered a comfortable ride, ideal for both everyday driving and longer journeys. This combination of performance and practicality made it a popular choice among those seeking a well-rounded luxury sedan. The M535i, on the other hand, was a performance-oriented variant. It featured a revised engine with a higher compression ratio and larger intake manifolds, boosting power to 218 horsepower. This, along with a shorter final drive ratio and a slightly stiffer suspension, resulted in a more aggressive driving experience. The M535i also boasted distinctive styling features, including a unique front bumper, side skirts, and a rear spoiler, signifying its more sporting intentions. Inside, the M535i featured Recaro sport seats for added support during spirited driving. Both the 535i and M535i were available with a range of luxurious amenities, such as leather upholstery, power windows and locks, and a premium sound system. Despite their age, these E28 model BMWs still hold a strong appeal for enthusiasts who appreciate their classic styling, engaging driving dynamics, and enduring quality.
