BMW Awarded Two “Most Wanted” Awards For 2007 From Edmunds.com

3 and 5 Series Have Been Award Winners Every Year Since Awards Began

BMW was presented with two 2007 “Most Wanted” awards from Edmunds.com, the internet resource for consumer automotive information. The 2007 3 Series won for “Editors’ Most Wanted” sedan under $35,000, while the 2007 5 Series was recognized as the “Editors’ Most Wanted” sedan under $60,000.

The Edmunds editors, in announcing the 9th annual “Editors’ Most Wanted” awards, said, “We eat, breathe and dream automobiles, and in many instances, this love for the car overruled common sense during our selection process. But that’s the great thing about the Edmunds.com Editors’ Most Wanted list: it’s guided by passion, not science (much like the majority of car purchases). The result of our voting is a list of cars and trucks we’d want in our own garages”.

In characterizing the 3 Series award, Edmunds.com said, “…endowed with world-class suspension, steering and brake components, these cars have an ability to communicate with their drivers that is unmatched in the entry-level luxury class and, indeed, unmatched by most cars at any price.”

For the 5 Series award, the Edmunds.com editors stated, “The BMW 5 Series has always impressed us with its luxury trappings in a true driver’s car. No matter which engine you choose, you’ll get a sedan that feels rock solid on the highway and nimble through tight turns. The 5 Series may not have every luxury feature imaginable, but it has all the features that count to us.”

“We at BMW are committed to creating products that arouse passion”, said Tom Purves, Chairman and CEO of BMW (US) Holding Corp., “and these outstanding accolades from the editors of Edmunds.com are evidence of our success.”
