The BMW 535, 535i, and M535i models, produced between 1985 and 1988, represent a significant chapter in the evolution of BMW's iconic 5 Series. These vehicles, part of the E28 generation, were known for their refined driving experience, powerful engines, and elegant design. The 535 and 535i were powered by a 3.4-liter, naturally aspirated inline-six engine, producing 184 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. This engine offered a smooth and responsive power delivery, complemented by a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. The M535i, on the other hand, was the performance variant, featuring a 3.5-liter, naturally aspirated inline-six engine generating 218 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque. This engine, paired with a five-speed manual transmission, provided a more spirited driving experience, making the M535i a formidable competitor in its class. Beyond the engine options, the E28 5 Series offered a host of desirable features. The suspension system, known for its balanced handling and road-holding abilities, contributed to the car's reputation for driver engagement. Inside, the interior was characterized by high-quality materials, comfortable seats, and a well-designed dashboard. The E28 5 Series also featured advanced safety features for its time, including anti-lock braking system (ABS) on select models. While the E28 5 Series may seem like a relic of the past today, it remains highly regarded by enthusiasts for its timeless design, capable performance, and its contribution to BMW's legacy of building exceptional sedans. The 1985-1988 models continue to be sought after by collectors and drivers who appreciate the blend of luxury, performance, and engineering that defined the E28 generation.
