Seven sedans—Acura Legend, Alfa Romeo 164L, Audi 90 Quattro, BMW 525i, Mercedes-Benz 190E, Saab 9000CD Turbo, Volvo 940 Turbo—underwent our acid test.
From the logbook: "Good driver! Lacks power." "Everything works so very well and with great confidence. Perhaps the best balanced car in the test."
This was our first time behind BMW's new multivalve "small" six, and the results tell all: the 525i finished in fourth place, but it nearly tied with the third-place Audi and slotted in respectably close to the winner. This newly powered price-leader 5-series gives an enthusiast driver plenty to love, including balance and poise on twisty roads, superb seats and driving environment, probably the best styling of this group, and faultless build quality. Some testers noted the numb spot in the steering around dead-ahead, but in every other way, the 525i actively approaches driving as a sport, a pastime, and a passion.
