Base MSRP: $44,300

The 528i sedan has the same 230-hp 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine as the smaller 328i. Unlike with the entry-level 3 Series, 5 Series buyers can order a V8-powered variant, the 550i sedan.

The 550i has a 360-hp 4.8-liter V8 engine. Exterior styling for the 5 Series is polarizing: Some people love it, but a lot of people hate it. The 5 Series sees minor updates for 2008.
