The BMW 5 Series E34 is a mid-size executive car that was produced by BMW from 1988 to 1996. It was the third generation of the 5 Series, succeeding the E28 and introducing a significantly more aerodynamic design, a wider range of engine options, and improved handling and performance. The E34 design, penned by Claus Luthe, featured a more angular and contemporary aesthetic compared to its predecessor, with a distinctive long hood and short rear deck. The car's suspension was upgraded for better handling, incorporating a MacPherson strut front and a multi-link rear setup, which contributed to the E34's reputation for precise and responsive handling. In terms of powertrain options, the E34 offered a wide variety of engine choices, from the frugal 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit to the powerful 5.0-liter V8 found in the 540i. Diesel options were also available, including the 2.4-liter M51 diesel engine known for its durability and fuel efficiency. The E34 was also the first 5 Series to feature the iconic M5 performance variant, powered by a 3.5-liter inline six-cylinder engine capable of 315 hp and a top speed of 155 mph. The M5 further enhanced the 5 Series' reputation for performance and handling, solidifying its position as a true sports sedan. The E34's success was further cemented by its reputation for reliability and build quality, making it a popular choice for both enthusiasts and everyday drivers.
