The all-new 5 Series Sedan has been extremely well received at its US premiere at the New York International Auto Show and will arrive at East Bay BMW soon.


Styling, product substance and pricing are praised by the media and the public. Thanks to BMW EfficientDynamics the combined EPA fuel economy figures of 23 mpg for the 535i and 20 mpg for the 550i represent improvements of 11%-15% compared to the Model Year 2010 models.

Improvements in torque and performance of 30 lbs ft and 10 hp respectively accelerate the F10 528i Sedan to 60 mph in 6.6 s, a 0.5 s improvement compared to the outgoing E60 528i Sedan. The 2011 528i Sedan shares the new technologies with the other engine variants such as an 8-speed Automatic Transmission, Brake Energy Regeneration and Electric Power Steering. Additional equipment improvements over the outgoing E60 528i include Lumbar support and a larger Moonroof.



Just like the 535i and 550i, the new 528i Sedan is not only better equipped but also has a better value than its predecessor. Call or visit East Bay BMW to order your 2011 BMW today.

JOY IS BMW. JOY IS EAST BAY BMW

JOY

On the back of this three-letter word, we built a company. Independent of everyone, accountable to no one but the driver. We do not build cars. We are the creators of emotions. We are the guardians of ecstasy, the thrills and chills, the laughs and smiles and all the words that can't be found in a dictionary. We are the Joy of Driving. No car company can rival our history, replicate our passion, see our vision. Innovation is our backbone but Joy is our heart. We will not stray from our three letter purpose. We will nurture it. We will make Joy smarter. We will push it, test it, break it--then build it again--more efficient, more dynamic. We will give thew world the keys to Joy, and they will take it for a ride. And while other story to promise everything that we promise one- the most personal, cherished and human of all emotions. This is the story of BMW. Visit East Bay BMW to experience the Story of Joy.
