2011 BMW 535i M-Sport Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2011 BMW 535i M-Sport. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
Thanks again to Hendrick BMW for allowing me to film this vehicle! for more information on this one as well as others visit www.hendrickbmw.com

[@Marko19Delije89]

Crazy to think that this video is 10 years old man... I remember watching it in 2011... loved that old style review

[@bowler7922]

This car has just incredible attention to detail. Down to the little ambient lights and everything. It has heated rear seats which was quite a luxury for the time. It also had a gear shifter that is in my opinion better than the current gear shifter btw has on this car now. It has comfortable seats and quite a beauty engine too. Everything about this car is why I love BMW so much because it was just about perfect.

[@sheedlouch100]

this dude gives the best in depth walk around of the car, inside and out. i feel like i just drove it lol. the car has sooo many features.not to mention the inside color combination!! nice m package also. only thing i wish it was the 550i. but overall great 18 mins on youtube. definitely 2 thumbs up !!! sheedlouch out

How is maintenance asks many of you ... well, as an expert I can tell you it is less than a Ferrari and more then Hyundai.

[@Sequel7]

NOT IF YOU GET A WARRANTY COVERAGED

[@ThePatrickBateman69]

Mark Joseph exactly. you have to get one under 50k miles & buy the BMW extended warranty for stress-free driving

[@ThePatrickBateman69]

Mark Joseph btw the warranty doesn't cover maintainence. so you still have to get it serviced for brakes, rotors, oil, filters, etc. The maintainence plan is completely not connected to the warranty. I wouldn't buy the maintainence plan anyway because you're not even getting that much of a discount by paying all at once for maintainence vs over time. I Would say maintence is fine because it's mistly covered under warranty for faulty parts but regular maintence would be less than 1k a year if even that.

[@Sequel7]

[@rajg7]

it's been great! there's just an annoying clicking noise from the front right axle when you turn at a low speed at certain angle. I've tried to get it fixed, but it always comes back... if you can live with that its a-ok!

[@reda19891]

F10s 535i comes with the N55 engine which is twin scroll single turbo, not twin turbo

[@StormAutoAdventures]

You're absolutely correct. 2011 was the year BMW switched to the twin scroll turbo in the 335i as well. I believe the 2011 335is still uses the twin turbo though.

[@chestplate8343]

[@MrAndreCoutinho]

Great car that has aged incredibly well, I didn’t like it when it was released, I thought it was too bland, possibly because it was a non sport model. My favorite of this era was the Jaguar XF, which I still think is beautiful, but the BMW, especially the interior, kept up with the time really really well.

[@SeanBrennan007]

@auaq I have a 2011 X5 with the same engine, and a week after we bought it, we drove over 800 Miles to go to a wedding. We averaged right at about 30 MPG with a highway speed of 75-80 MPH. I think the X5 is a little heavier than the 5 Series and isn't as low to the ground 'sleek' as the 535i is, thus the difference in mileage. The X5 with the same 300HP in-line 6 returns a consistent 23/24 MPG at each fill up. Once this engine is broken in, it really wakes up and you can feel the difference.

[@RailManSD]

Amazing car! nothing like a good old BMW.

[@thembp4sho]

DUDE I LUV WATCHING UR VIDS...I DO THAT EVERYDAY....BEST CAR REVIEWER ON KZbin....NO DOUBT...

@TheRockisSmokin 300 hp is more than enough, believe me. Ive been in a 530d (240hp) doing 130 mph. It had a lot more to give and the ride comfort was still incredible, and very quiet. These are expensive for a reason: They are incredible cars.

[@tarassu]

This car lacks the best option - no adaptive cruise control :( Also weird that it has rear heated seats but no 4-zone climate control (two extra zones for rear passengers). Other than that pretty loaded (not fully loaded, some stuff still missing). 5 years later and it is still one of the best vehicles on the market.

[@auaq]

@Vonnx3 For your information, BMW has never made a v6 configuration engine but only inline-6 or straight-6 engines and always at a slant angle. Every time the bonnet is up you would notice the engine is inclined at a certain angle and this is true for inline-4 and inline-6 engines. They have made plentiful v8 engines, one v10 engine, and v12 engines. They have once made a v16 engine for the rolls-royce but never put it into production although they still have it.

Twin scroll not twin turbo. It's one turbo with two scrolls one larger than the other bro. Also the turbs doesn't kick in until later rpms. It saves gas in that you don't start moving until the turbo spools around 3500 rpm

[@nature10879]

@ramale97 It is M sport package, for those people that order new BMW's they have the option of getting this package, Basically you get the same car with BMW M// trim kit, steering wheel of an M// car, the exterior of an M car and other a few touches of M// cars. Horsepower and engine is the same. Kinda like getting F sport package for Lexus. This car only has 300hp and 300lb torque.

[@Chadrb12]

Im deciding between the 550i M Sport and an E550 Merc, so Ive test driven both a few times. Every visit to the BMW dealership includes a sales rep attempting to talk me into the 535i when I express interest in the 550i. Why do you suppose that is?

[@1DanielSevilla]

IDK WHY BUT I LOVE THIS CAR SO MUCH

[@SeanBrennan007]

In regards to the 535i engine, the in-line Turbo 6 with 300HP is all you need. You can drop some additional cash on the V8 with 400HP, but for the money, the 300HP in-line 6 is the ultimate way to go. No power lagging issues with this car at all. In addition to that, I average about 33+ on the highway with the cruise set at 80! Normal day to day driving (real world) is going to return more around 28-30 depending on how you drive.

[@Ashw1115]

BMW V8 engines are pretty unreliable and this is coming from someone with a 1995 740i also had a 2005 V8 6 series. I’d say anything above 2015 for the V8’s. My buddy’s 2016 V8 Beamer has lasted him awhile and good on gas.

[@iceonthemoon]

I'm considering either the BMW 535i, or the new 528i 4 cylinder turbo, but i can't decide what engine would be the best all rounder, is the power difference that noticeable making it worth getting the 535i? or is the new engine 528i better?

[@nature10879]

To answer your question to the full, True "M" cars are much more powerful and aggressive looking than a BMW with just an M sport package treatment. Take the M6 has over 500lb torque and 560Hp but a regular 6 series has just 445hp and a little over 400lb torque. With an M pkg treatment, it looks a little clean and special in a way compared to a regular 6 series. same to 3 series with the M3 and 5 series with the M5 or the X5M with a regular X5. Hope this helps, thx

[@trencher7]

Does any other car make have that leg adjustment? Audi? Jag? So comfortable.

[@Hidezepickle]

Actually, have you heard the M5 without the system on, sounds exactly the same, it's more for inside entertainment due to the isolation of the cabin for road noise. Also, these straight six engines have a very pure exhaust note, and BMW does a lot to reduce noise from exhaust notes. I think it shows some kind of sublety. Anyway you can always ask your dealer to remove some of the resonators and give it a more direct sound if that's what you're looking for.
