Renowned for its rear-wheel-drive handling prowess, BMW's 5 Series sedan was redesigned for 2004. A new high-output 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder powers the 530 for 2006, and all-wheel-drive and wagon versions are now offered. In addition to the 530, BMW also markets the less-powerful 525 and the V-8-powered 550.  Read More
