If you had to pick one car to wear the mantle of perfection, the 2009 BMW 5 Series would certainly be a nominee with good Vegas odds. It's a premium sedan (and wagon) with an arguably just-right size that looks good and is beautifully built. It's quiet and comfortable, yet handles better than just about anything else with four doors, and its engines are potent but utterly refined. In other words, if you have the money to spend, it's hard to pass up the 5 Series.

Exceptional ride and handling dynamics, smooth and vigorous engines, premium cabin furnishings, sublime "multicontour" seats, strong resale value.

This model features:

Brake Energy Regeneration

When braking or coasting, the system engages the alternator to charge the battery, recycling energy otherwise wasted.

Lightweight Engineering

Lightweight materials reduce the overall weight of the vehicle, enhancing driving dynamics and improving fuel economy.

Optimum Shift Indicator

A small visual display on the car’s dashboard shows the optimum gear for a more fuel-efficient driving style. Only available on manual transmission vehicles.
