At the beginning of the 1970s, the New Class was replaced by the first models of the BMW 5-Series. The latest computer technology had already been used to generate paradigmatic solutions in the area of passive safety.
The first models 520 and 520i were presented in 1972. A collaboration with BMW Motorsport GmbH launched the Type M535i as the flagship model of this series in 1979. The car was powered by a 3.5 litre engine and featured particularly exclusive equipment. It included a chassis engineered with sporty tuning, Recaro seats at the front and BMW Motorsport stripes and spoilers at the front and rear on request.
