2017 BMW 5 Series V GS350 F Sport
Now that BMW has released information on the new 2017 5 Series, how do you think the BMW 540 will compare to the GS350 F Sport? Would you buy a 2016 Lexus or wait for the BMW?

Over the previous 535, I would take the GS. Over the 17 540, I'm not so sure.
I still like this older comparison test:

the f10 isn't mod friendly like most would think. the n55 motor mod capability is nothing like the n54 in the e60. i'm curious about the b58 motor as it is in the new 7 series as well.

lol if you're heavy on the pedal you aren't gonna get much. I used to have an e60 550i and i typically got 22mpg mixed and 26 hwy. other people i know averaged 16mpg mixed...

That engine in the lighter 340i is rated at 33 on the highway so there's no way it's going to get 40 in the larger, heavier 5 Series.

They need a new big engine, that's for sure, but as far as new engines go, don't forget the 2 liter turbo they're putting out for the IS, NX and GS. New is new right?
