Best sedan on the road

Don't buy a standard 5Series - buy the GT. The GT is really a 7Series (extended wheel base and built on 7Series platform) so it is more roomy and comfortable, and gives you the great handling of a 5Series but in the body of a 7Series.

SUPREME HANDLING IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER

VERY COMFORTABLE, ESPECIALLY ON LONG ROAD TRIPS. ALSO VERY FAST - CLOCKS UNDER 5SEC FROM 0-60MPH. THE GT IS THE BEST VERSION OF THE 5SERIES ON THE ROAD.
