The first BMW M5, based on the E28 5 Series, was manufactured from October 1984 to June 1988.[7] It made its debut at the Amsterdam Motor Show in February 1985.[8] It was based on the 535i chassis with various mechanical changes, most notably the M88/3 engine (shared with the E24 M635CSi grand tourer coupé) which was an updated version of the engine used in the M1 sports car.[7] At its launch, the E28 M5 was the fastest production sedan in the world.[5]
