BMW 5 Series of 2011: It just keeps getting better
San Carlos 5 Series dealer, Peter Pan BMW, may have to extend its hours in June. Why, you ask? Because the all new, super sleek, 2011 5 Series will arrive then and is sure to send buyers and browsers alike to the dealership in droves. The designers of this car have thought of everything. From sexy, sporty lines, to a luxurious interior, the new 5 Series will no doubt have serious drivers heading to BMW dealers.
Most importantly, the new 5 Series has improved the efficiency under the hood, without compromising ability and performance. Two engines will be available; the N55 dual scroll incline six, which supplies 300 horsepower, and the N63 twin turbo V8, posting a whooping 400 horsepower. Initially, two models will be available; the 550i will feature the more powerful engine, while the 535i will fill a slightly more conservative role with the smaller engine. Rumor has it a model called the 528i will be sold to US clients only at a later date.
Inside the San Carlos 5 Series dealer tells us the ’11 model continues to impress. The interior is most like the lavish 7 Series, but possess a distinct personality all its own. Black LCD screens grace the center control panel, as well as the back of the headrests for your passenger’s enjoyment. In addition rear seat riders can enjoy an extra half inch of leg room. Also, the car features the newest version of iDrive.
What is most exciting, however, is the car’s electric power steering. Why would I be so excited about this feature?; because this element gives the car the technology to park itself and do a better job than most of us can, well myself for certain. New technology allows the car to calculate the parking space available, determine if the car will fit, and then close your eyes and voila, your car will be parked. (The only thing missing is an automated voice saying, “have a nice day, Mr. X”).
For those of you who like to let others test out new technology, the Peter Pan BMW dealership also sells used BMW models to San Carlos residents. Stop in today to test drive what is currently on the lot, but don’t forget to return this June to see the superb 2011 5 Series up close. Peter Pan’s new and used BMW San Carlos dealer promises you won’t be disappointed.
