The BMW 5 Series is the brand’s executive car model. It was first produced in 1972, and has since evolved into a one of the brand’s best-selling models (just behind the 3 Series). The model comes in a few different body styles, like a 4-door sedan, a 5-door station wagon, and a 5-door gran turismo (the high-performance version of the model).
