How much does the 2016 BMW 5 Series cost?

Prices have softened 7.78% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 803 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2016 BMW 5 Series a good car?

Yes — the 2016 BMW 5 Series earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers consistently praise its powerful performance, luxurious comfort, and extensive range of features, and many also highlight the smooth driving experience and available M sport suspension. The overview also shows why it fits well if you want a midsize luxury sedan that blends performance, comfort, and equipment while still feeling special to drive. With 36.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding attractive pricing in the market.

Is the 2016 BMW 5 Series reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Reviewers describe the car as smooth, powerful, and luxurious, and some specifically point to a trouble-free-feeling driving experience with strong performance. That said, the model’s complexity can make ownership more demanding, so you should expect long-term upkeep to matter more than it would on a simpler sedan. For used buyers, the main risk is not just age but how well the car has been maintained over time.

What should I look for when buying a used 2016 BMW 5 Series?

At 57.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on mechanical condition, electronics, and signs of deferred maintenance, since this model can be costly to own if issues have been ignored. Pay close attention to how the car drives and whether all features work as expected, especially on higher-spec examples.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2016 BMW 5 Series?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile options.

• Deal availability: 36.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 803 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.78% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 57.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $12,100, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2016 BMW 5 Series's resale value?

The current average of $12,143 sits slightly below last year's $13,167.

That price movement suggests the model has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if the market stabilizes. If you buy well and keep the car in strong condition, you may have a better chance of limiting further value loss. The current pricing also means your resale outcome will depend heavily on maintenance history, mileage, and overall condition.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2016 BMW 5 Series or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2016 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2016 if:

• 36.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 57.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.78% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

Consider the 2017 if:

• At $16,976, the 2017 costs more than the current year's $12,143 average.
• It brings a thoroughly renewed design with new engines and updated technology.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2016 is the primary path to consider. If you can stretch for a newer redesign and want the more modern package, the 2017 is the stronger secondary option. For price-sensitive buyers, the 2016 offers the more approachable entry point into the 5 Series.
