    .............................................................
    This is the updated BMW M5 Competition!
    Now we all know that a new BMW M is going to be impressive, right? If you’re lucky enough to be in the market for one, then it’s almost guaranteed that power and performance are going to be exceptional. But then again, with the new M5 coming in at a starting price of £102,000, you’d expect it to be!!
    So the question is, with this only being a mid-life facelift, should you really decide to go for an all-new M5 when it costs so much? Yes, it might be graced with a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 which can hit 60mph in 3.3 seconds, but is it worth it?
    Well, it’s time to find out! Mat’s going to put this high-performance saloon through its paces, showing you what’s changed both inside & out, while also finding out whether it performs as well as BMW say it will!
    But do you think it’s worth the cost? Let us know in the COMMENTS!

      Give them a chance mate, have you seen the new M3 / M4 / 4-Series in the flesh yet? Are you a long time BMW fan? I respect your views, but it’s good to remain positive at times. Even though it’s very hard sometimes. I’m going to see the two cars next week, so I’ll have my final say on whether I like their face or not.

      0 to 60 is not as important as it used to be, the limiting factor is now only traction not power, in the 90s / 00s / 2010s this was not the case. More important are the 62 to 124 times imo.

      @@anyexpat Have to 100% disagree with that statement, 0-60 is the only thing most consumers pay attention to especially out here in the US the two questions I got from customers looking for a performance car when I worked at a Mercedes was, “How much horsepower does it have” and “whats the 0-60” as far as car analytics and on track performance consumers dont care because a large majority are never going to even visit a race track its all about who’s car has more power and who’s car is quicker off the line its sad but its true

    Great review Matt 👍 I have a 2019 F90 M5 (non-comp) and I picked that over a comp car because it’s slightly softer on UK roads and I’m not a driving god and it is without doubt still an absolutely epic car. I’m not sure what the 0-60 of the ‘normal M5’ is but it’s quick. I saved £27,000 off list and it’s s fully loaded with the adaptive cruise, massage seats, better lights etc etc. The LCi is no doubt a great car and probably a better car than mine but the pre-facelift is also epic and now a lot cheaper than a new M5 comp. If I were to be buying again - a) you can only get the comp car, you don’t have the choice of a normal softer car b) don’t buy a new one, get either a pre-reg new non-LCi or a used pre-facelift with low mileage. Regardless of the fact it’s no sports car, it’s still exciting to drive, I love the sound for the sports exhaust makes in Sports+ and handles very well for a 2T barge!

    I have worked with/for BMW for 34 years and I’m currently the service test driver for the dealer I’ve worked for (27 years here) . I have driven thousands of BMW’s over the years and I can say this man is spot on about the 550 being all you need for the street. No one really needs an M car for the street but they are a helluva lot of fun to drive!!!! And yes the 550 is more comfortable to drive especially on long trips.

    I drove the M5 Competition at a BMW track day last summer, and it was impressively good. We kept on the safety nannies but it was quite easy for an amateur to get it up to 130 on the straight and then brake quickly to enter the corners and chicanes without losing control. The acceleration and braking performance is outstanding. We didn’t get to drive it on the street but I believe that it would not be as smooth and comfortable on rougher roads as my daily driver 540. The customers for this class of car will have more than one car, undoubtedly, so daily driving comfort should not be a consideration.

    Hi Matt. Great review. I agree with much of what you report but the final verdict. Here are my issues: 1: M5 Comp is a completely different class and type of vehicle than M550(see 2) 2: M5 Comp is a super saloon. M550 is a fast luxury car but cannot compare in performance or luxury with E63S or RS6. 3: M5 Comp is fastest petrol 4 door sedan in the world from 0-60 and 1/4 mile. 4: M5 Comp exterior design is superior and more sporty. 5. M5 Comp interior is far more luxurious. 5: One does not buy an M5 Comp for the value. 6: You need to hear to US version to make a best informed verdict on exhaust note. I am in US and just took delivery of one with M performance exhaust. I traded a 2017 GLE63S (pre OPF) and I can say without a doubt that the 2021 M Performance exhaust is superior in sound in terms of raw volume on cold start, idle, revs, load, up and down shifts. However, the AMG sounds a bit more "American" in terms of its depth. 7: Perhaps the most important...this LCI M5 Comp (including the CS) may be the last all petrol M5 Comp ever made! Given points 1-6 that should place it as arguably the last and greatest petrol super saloon ever! I hope you can get it on the straight away and run some 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs against the others I mentioned soon! Cheers!

      Definitely depends on the country. I guess where I live in Canada, you could probably use this car very well because the roads are bigger and easier to make turns, but can't really use it as it was intended to as a true M car because of a lotta police. Whereas in Germany on the Autobahn, the M5 would dominate.

      M5 will be faster. does it matter whether its by 0.1 second or 1 second. lets not kid ourselves, people will buy these cars for the flex (they're both jack of all traders, masters...) . The M5 is so much more desirable, its worth the extra 30k for the fruits that come with that alone.

    If you like fast estate cars, F31 BMW 335d m with the performance kit in it, very light tune takes it to circa 370bhp, 700nm and over 40mpg with all wheel drive. Best car for everything? 0-60 sub 4.5s and delimited is approx 170mph....Thoughts Matt?

    I think you can get the boot to lock too from the key, I think it is a programmable setting, set at the garage for free. I had a powered open/close boot from my key on my 2001 E38. I find it hard to believe this is not available nowadays. Kxx

    Hey Mat, i need to correct you on something. Those wheels are not LCI exclusive, they were an option on the pre facelifted one as well. The ones you showed on the pre facelifted car are actually the stock wheels for the LCI as well.

    You can close the boot with the key. You only have to press and hold the bootbutton for at least 3 sec 🤗
