Standard features on the 535i Gran Turismo include 10-way power-adjustable driver's and front passenger's seat with 4-way lumbar support and memory system for driver's seat, power adjustable steering wheel and outside mirrors, Dakota Leather upholstery and door trim, dark wood trim and split-folding fore-aft and seat-angle adjustable rear seats.

The sleek sedan is powered by a 3.0-liter, inline 6-cylinder engine with TwinPower Turbo Technology that produced 300 horsepower- yet still achieves an estimated 30 mpg on the highway.

With Adaptive Drive settings, 535i Gran Turismo drivers can choose from four modes that best suit their driving styles. Macon BMW drivers can choose from NORMAL mode or customize their experience with COMFORT, SPORT, and SPORT+ modes. COMFORT mode utilizes the suspension to lessen the impact of the road, while more power assist is directed to the steering, resulting in easier maneuverability. SPORT mode makes for more rigid suspension and offers a quicker throttle response and tighter shift points, creating more precise control for the driver. All driving dynamics are increased in SPORT+ mode, all driving dynamics are further heightened. The suspension is even more rigid, the throttle response even quicker, and the shift points are closer together.
