The BMW 5 Series History. The 2nd Generation (E28)

Evolution instead of revolution. The 5 Series of the 2nd generation differed optically only at the second glance to the first generation. But more interesting is what happened under the chassis. Numerous technological enhancements characterise the BMW 5 Series of the 2nd generation.

BMW Sheer Driving Pleasure

[@Arman-nl6mg]

Who agrees the E28 is the most beautiful 5 Series ever?

[@NikoBell12]

The E28 as an M5 is just so much want. I think the E39 is the most beautiful but this is a close second.

[@romulus_]

2nd favorite after E39

[@Rafal_Wu]

Arman_dleg Especialy black: )

[@baldeepsingh9736]

Me specially the M5 E28

[@stevealexR1]

E12 LCI better - prefer the more rounded rear lights and sloping boot lid of the ‘77-on E12

[@abc20002koonrsr]

E34 is easily the peak of 5 series design but the e28 has a magical style , shark nose elegance

[@1beck2en3ham]

I also like E34 design most but the E28 design is clever. Although it looks like E12 but many persons can tell that E28 was born in the 80s and E12 was born in the 70s.

[@paulhunter123]

e34 was the start of the end of bmw

[@paulhunter123]

@Moritz Schmidt e34 is too plastic but was great in 89

[@carlostantaruna6114]

I Rather E28 ...Chrome wilndows ...Awesome

[@KingCast65]

Don't forget the E12. Mine was gorgeous. i14.photobucket.com/albums/a335/christopher1/The528i.jpg

[@jonnyfuckinblaze7285]

Bought a 535i about 6 months ago and let me say this car is one of coolest cars I’ll ever have in my life. So in love with my e28. Never getting rid of it

[@vikos78]

Do you still have it?

[@Bdawg20]

He said he’ll never get rid of it

[@krutomjer]

Amazing, please do a longer videos, this is perfect to know about BMW heritage and how they were made.

[@Bianconeri005]

Lovely E28 ! I actually got an E28 520I Shadowline from 1987, only 163000 kms ! Still perfect car and i'll keep it for a long time, danke BMW for making great cars !

[@OMENAKAKKU-eo1jm]

my favs e12. e28 and e34 1988-1995

[@philipfcbmw6986]

Every single generation of the 5 series is just awesome!

[@polkanet]

Yes it is. I had an E 28 (520 i) which was unfortunately lost in an accident. Then I bought an E 34 (520 i 4 ventiles) in 1990 which I still drive now. And moreover I bought in 2015 a F 10 (535 i). They all are magnificient.

[@SlickRick135]

My uncle had one of these back in the days, what a machine. It ignited my passion and love for these cars from Munich.

[@MrRickp78]

I have a Zinnobar red 1987 525e in the UK and it's a brilliant car. Nice to drive and one of the best looking saloon cars from the 80's.

[@Jeff_Klein]

I was expecting the M5 to be mentioned, but nice video anyway.

[@REALSlutHunter]

They mention it, in another clip where they proudly show how a E28 M5 (that BMW give them) is demolished in Mission Impossible !

[@Darx97]

love these videos

[@elshazlio]

Awesome! Can't wait for 3rd gen.

[@MonzaExperience]

Absolutamente fantástico! Ainda compro um destes aqui no Brasil e levo dirigindo até Munique!

[@Baumfarm]

I love seeing this video about the 5 series E28. Now I love to see a longer video including the M5 and 535is, 535i.

[@justas525]

My favorite bmw of all time

[@karpetcabin]

Love this series.

[@kunum5775]

I loved and miss my '85 535i. What a great car this was!

[@princebankz7012]

This was my favorite! E28 M5!

[@strikeryachts]

One of the best cars ever.

[@matthewbell1968]

[@ricksays7133]

So BMW was one of the first to use computer aided design for their suspension design, nice.

[@iznhot4542]

nice car

[@davidorama6690]

This is the quintessential BMW executive saloon. Looks great in red.

[@mochammad.andrianto]

nice video. I am waiting for the next 4th generation BMW 5 series (E39) video

[@silasfaber2095]

Same, i have a 540i E39. Best car ever.

[@negrusz]

Same here, cant wait for the E39

[@andregross7420]

The E34 video has to come before the E39 video

[@mochammad.andrianto]

All 5 series before the 5th Generation (E60) were so legend and the best build quality, yet more reliable IMHO

[@stephan4ever64]

I had an E28 M535i and I loved it. :)

[@ottofischer9574]

Stephan Nonting i have an 518 and i also Love it

[@karpetcabin]

Stephan Nonting cool! What did you end up doing with it?

[@LordBumSniffington]

I went from an e39 to and e60 now in an f10, 5 series fanboy to say the least

[@tvarqwerty7461]

My first car E28 1986 full complictation. Almost done full restoration (only original parts) and only body left. Already buy another BMW - E32. Then E34 .. Now i looking for E23. One love - and its - E28... she will be with me to the end of my days... p/s : maybe someday i will go to the Germany. Pss : M30 POWER!

[@BMW]

​+Tvarqwerty​ Wow 😍 Seems like you are getting quite a collection! We'd love to see some photos 💙

[@khaiusbmw8871]

I am waiting for the third generation!

[@BennysBenz]

I have a e28 82 528e and have had 12 other BMWs in my lifetime other then my 1969 2002 this is my other favorite car.

[@SuperLukeShapiro]

Watched this video today. And today is 40's birthday of my e28 🥳

[@BMW]

Happy birthday to that BEAST! 💪

[@SuperLukeShapiro]

@@BMW thank you!

[@danboshskipovsky2469]

i like it

[@furiousgtz]

I want one.

[@collegejus]

Icon.

[@stephen9869]

I would love to restore one of these with the 3.8 straight six and brakes from the E34 M5 and spray it dark metallic blue with an ivory leather interior......

[@RjeeyProduction]

still waiting for e34 :D

[@anshadpp9134]

Bmw ❤️😍❤️😍

[@farmawisavy]

The most beautiful 5 Series ever

[@snapdragogon69]

ZinnobberRot is this colour and was the best red they have ever done, I don't know why they replaced it with a basic GM-Ford type red. The paint mix has brilliant blue and black and yellow mixed in it.

[@stevemcgee99]

I'd love to have a BMW turbo diesel!

[@chrisrey8964]

Such solid cars. Mine has way over 200k miles. still feels more satisfying than new cars

[@BMW]

​+ChrisRey​ Thank you for the kind compliment! We wish you a Sheer Driving Pleasure always.

[@HurtzGaming]

What about the legendary 3er E30?:(

[@ViennaGuy2000]

Does anyone know, is there a German version of this video? Or links to the BMW interviews in German?

[@ilmago5291]

I play whit a racing videogame and i drive this 80 s bmw

[@jozaa-zz2pp]

i like e12. e28 andd e30

[@1beck2en3ham]

The E28 design is clever. Although it looks like E12 but many persons can tell that E28 was born in the 80s and E12 was born in the 70s.On the other hand, G30 has many differences from F10 but persons can't separate G30 from F10.

[@ultimussslol1558]

Bavarian Motor Works Best!!

[@gknowles5415]

My mom had this car...you couldnt tell her nothing LOL

[@fezzial]

its a shame they didnt get into every trim level. I have a 535is and wouldve loved to hear about it, I mean they didn't even talk about the M5!!!! what the hell...

[@007lizou]

it's reelly my dream car but i can't find the right one :/

[@attilaszamosfalvi5749]

Does anybody know the name of the music? It's amazing. :)

[@BMW]

Hi Attila, There is no specific song name or artist.

[@attilaszamosfalvi5749]

BMW Oh, thanks! Anyway, very catchy '80s style music.

[@DannySNTV]

BMW You should publish an album of these catchy songs, i'm a huge fan 😍😊

[@albertop-3069]

e28 or e30 ?

[@brendan007]

Very first car was a 528e. E stood for extremely slow

[@ottofischer9574]

Impossible

[@thewedge8823]

Why are E28s appreciating so quick in value??? even the 535is is going for $30k on BAT, with 100k miles... it's crazy... are they really that good?

[@charlieb2176]

Wait what the fuck. I got mine for 1000

[@charlieb2176]

535i

[@Silverhands]

2019 - this still sounds too expensive.

Did the e28 have any diesels

[@e28forever30]

Did you watch the video???😮

[@jounazlebe2297]

i wishd id had e12 yellow and e28 red and e12 520 yellow e28 520 green and e28 535i green

[@e28forever30]

🤪🤪🤪

[@PlaybacksingerVipinSNanden]

E30 325i same motor as 525i

[@mverbaan3381]

The most characteristic 5 series! If a kid would be asked tot draw a car, it would look like this: boxy and little or no useless lines. The E12 and E34 i found were a little bit dozy. Probably because of the similar sized headlights. The most timeless 5 is the E39: clean lines, not one artificial. A M-package brings out the best in its design. Best build-quality too.: bomb proof, before the bean-counters took over :( . Bangles E60... hideous. F10, far better, although a little bit too much designed/artificial lines going on. G30, cleaner!

[@Fradias11]

I'm not sure what you mean by "bean-counters" but I entirely agree with your comment ;)

[@mverbaan3381]

Fradias11 i mean the managers who think shortterm profits are more important than longevity. Yes these bookholders are important too, to keep the business running. See Fokker where technicians had too little eye for the costs. They went bankrupt. But financial people should not take the upperhand in technical companies.

[@andrijarasic1739]

how much horsepower has the 528 version

[@BMW]

Hello Andrija, the BMW 528i of the second generation of BMW 5-Series had 135 kW (181 hp).

[@e28forever30]

@@BMWNope, it was at 184hp.

[@mohammadforghani6029]

If you are planning on buying a bmw please read this: I purchased my bmw in 2017 and in only one year my car had a problem with its air condition 5 times and each time it took 2 weeks for it to be fixed and in only a little while it would have the same problem again. So if you value your time and money think twice about purchasing a bmw
