BMW UK Invited me out to the Nurburgring 24 hour race, they gave me this F90 M5 to drive out there, I swapped this with a M3 CS whilst at the N24. The New BMW M5 is a real all round weapon, I cant think of a better, more comfortable motorway/A road stormer, also the info of xDrive hasn't ruined anything, it has just given you miles more grip should you need or want it! Hope you enjoy part 1 of my Review :-)
Dont know if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all of the latest series on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my gf for the last couple of weeks :)
What a fantastic review. Looks like you’re having fun. I’ve been following your channel for a while now and love it! Just bought an M2 and I’m turning into a proper BMW fanboy!
I have to say that the fact you have no more than 40k subs makes your channel quite "homelike" and enjoyable since you make this gorgeous and informative kind of videos, but just because of that you deserve much more appreciation than what this 34k subs channel can give you. Honestly, thank you so much for the dedication you put in all of this. Thank you Joe, and cheers from Chile.
Cracking Video as per,a proper film,the music,the cinematography.BMW couldn’t have a finer ambassador even if they employed someone.Great stuff,can’t wait for part 2!
every time I watch your new videos, it makes me want to step up the BMW ladder and spend lots of money which I really don't have. Hopefully one day I will get one as you've turned me into a big fanboy. Looks like a cracking car for the real world
Hi Joe, Great review. I borrowed an M5 last week, and spent the day thundering through the lakes. This is a serious machine, and the X Drive only enhances the experience. It just grips, and puts 600hp into the tarmac, no fuss, no drama, just boom, and your up the road. The tech is top drawer in the car too, and adds to the experience. I seem to bang on about this car, on my current favourite forum, but it just falls on deaf ears, but when you are in the know, this car is at the top of the wish list. Sure, and M3/4 is more nimble etc, but this sledgehammer will be gone by the time the rear drivers are back on line again. Looking forward to your full review. I often dont listen to the actual vocals in a review, but more look at the drivers reactions, body language, and facial expressions etc, and you demonstrated perfectly, at the end of this vid, just how this car can make you feel when driving it, and the pleasure it can instill, well done mate, Simon.
Brilliant video Joe, keep up the good work buddy, your videos and genuine enthusiast for BMW has lead me to buy an M140i which I'm still rocking as we speak. Love these M5 thought. 😀
Hi Joe, loving the review and all of your recent content, it looks like your drone is shooting a different frame rate to what you are cutting at, as the aerials are jittering a bit on the pans. lovely video though cant wait to see the long term review. Jim
Great initial review and I look forward to the follow up. I was lucky enough to have my dealership lend me an M5 for the day a couple of weeks back. My thoughts are that with everything turned off in Sport 4WD the car was an utter monster and very enjoyable however I didn't enjoy the regular 4WD mode at all. If you have a chance to text all the modes more extensively please share...
Another great video, such good quality! You should try to arrange a comparison between the M5 and the Alpina B5, like you did with the M4 and Alpina B4 S, that would be EPIC!
Cheers man! That M4 vs B4 video cost me around £600, hence the reason I'm calling it a day with videos next month, I'm gonna be living on the streets haha
Hi Joe, as ever love your behind the BMW wheel driving after driving a few Audi RS6's in your time is the XDrive as good as quattro from Audi as they are due to Launch a new RS6 later this year now that will be bonkers fast and I assume over 605Bhp I reckon around 640Bhp with a increase in the torque figure now will Audi spoil the party for BMW and Mercedes or will BMW still have the upper hand ?
Hey Joe it also depends on wich Autobahn you are, the A4 from Dresden (Saxonia) to Erfurt (Thuringia) is to 80% deristricted and less traffic than other. My Rekord for 40km (24,8miles) in under 12 minuets.
On the 155mph limiter, I'm told that you go through it if not in top gear. Not sure if anyone has tried... but I will next month. Saves £2k on the drivers package...
Nice vid mate as always. As much as I like the new 5 series, I just can't stand the drug dealer black colour scheme. Especially when it's combined with a MASSIVE SHINY CHROME front grill.
Looking forward to the M5 Part 2 vid. I think the BMW Marketing Dept. shot down your drone as a revenge attack for you poking fun at their carbon fibre engine cover :-)
Haha yeah maybe! They probably won't like my slight negative point, but in reality its my honestly that gets viewer believing my positive points, hopefully they see that and buy me another drone ;-)
I just think the M5 is mega, you sure gave it a leg stretch. I am thinking of getting a M140i in sept/oct after seeing your bad boy. If you have any pointers drop me a line please pal.
Great autobahn footage and attitude. The brand that is all about widebody for some reason continues to refuses to widebody the M5/6 despite all their competitors doing it - also BMW need to lift their game on the ceramic option, how much they cost, and they just paint the base model single piston slider rear caliper gold lol
My dream car is an M5... pretty much any one from e39 on up.... unfortunately... my budget only allows me an e39 540i M-sport 6 speed with a DINAN tune...19" staggered wheel and some custom exhaust/intake. it's still a fun car, but not quite an M5.
Hi guys, This is off topic but,... At 5.33 the mercs boot with the dog in it is divided by some metal partition to make a top and bottom compartment. Ive been looking at something like this for my own car for ages but havent found anything... Can some one point me in the right direction, does anyone know what those partitions are called?
you know you're german when you hear non german people talking about how scary it is driving over 200km/h on the autobahn and you're just thinking, no feels just normal to me. absolutely fine with it. :) :) :)
Amazing car, but i dont change my E60 for this, i love BMW but little by little it is losing the sportiness, this more for a luxury car that is also sport, and not for a sport that has some luxury like it used to be!
Dude why would I click 26 seconds into a 12 minute video. Like it would take me longer to find your comment and go to the timestamp than to just watch the video lol
It’s a shame they still limit their cars… I know you can get the limiter completely removed by a tuning company but that may cause issues with your warranty… pain in the ass. They should do like Porsche and let their cars unleashed.
It’s missing aggression just in terms of appearance, seriously lacking arches. With the rs6 yet to come out this is a real sticking point because the estates from merc and Audi looking bad ass
Sorry buddy just listened and i didn't say that, I said G30 5 series. I would never say G35, I went to the G30 global launch and have known it as that for 2 years.

JazzRagu Haha great to hear mate and thanks for your support!
Consistent low key, high quality reviews with nice soundtrack and none of the 'in yer face' stuff. Excellent
Christopher Dandeker Thank you 🙏

Charlotte Hutchinson Yeah have to agree mate, I didn't want to love it, but boy I had fun with it and miss it now...
Great video Joe! Nice cinematics! Looking forward to to next part!!
What a car. Can't wait for pt2!
Glad that they are looking after you Joe at BMW as I bought the m140 due to your video reviews. Keep it up.
Thank you buddy, really hope their support continues. Hope you enjoy the 140 👌
Black with black wheels on that car look amazing. I’m glad they added the X drive to the M5 to help it feel more planted.
Tony Yeah man certainly helps lay those 600bhp down on the tarmac
The cannon ball run!! Joe. What a car.
They just keep coming; another great video from Mr JA. Terrific car too!
Another amazing review Joe! heres to 50K subs in no time!
Thanks man lets hope so!
Really well made video mate. Stepping it up, and I can see you moving to bigger things! Nice one.
Love your videos Joe. Proper filmed and edited. Serious, but with good humour.
Joe your videos have come such a long way. Cracking review, cracking car! 👍🏼
Thanks Paul appreciate it! Hope you're well :-)
Great content mate, keep it up and with in no time your channel is going to be one big UA-cam car reviews.
Good to see a car like this being driven by someone capable of driving it hard. Nice work joe. Hope you don't have to pay for the tyres!
Haha cheers Simon, the tyres were still thankfully okay when handing they keys back :-)
The M5 has always been the epitome of understated brutality. I love it. Great review mate
Brilliant video Joe, keep up the good work buddy, your videos and genuine enthusiast for BMW has lead me to buy an M140i which I'm still rocking as we speak. Love these M5 thought. 😀
Great video as always Joe. Lovely car!
The intro was perfect! Nice video
Looking forward to the full review, good job mate 👍🏻
Cheers Nick, hopefully see you soon mate!
finally a decent review on this car good work and great driving
acceleration to the road early in the video is really astonishing...
Again great video 😀 looking forward to the next one
Great stuff as usual mate, looking forward to hearing your full thoughts.
Thanks Shane!
M5 vs E63 S video needs to happen! Cannot wait for part 2!
Nice Jo! Cant wait for the next episode 👍
Great review mate - video turned out great. Had a really fun weekend in the 520d M spo - i mean M5!! ;)
Hahaha thanks again buddy, so thankful to have you help 👌👌🎬
Can't think of a bigger BMW fan-boi to put this puppy through its paces...give it the beans Joe!
Another great video. Can't wait for part 2
Great video Joe. I love the compare to the F10 M5, they are very similar from the outside.
Marvelous! Just a little to yellowish filter, at least on my iPhone X screen. Cant wait for the full review. Love the music, you are using!
Wouter Bollen Cheers man, yeah I've overdone the filter in places 🤦♂️
Great review as always!
Hi Joe, loving the review and all of your recent content, it looks like your drone is shooting a different frame rate to what you are cutting at, as the aerials are jittering a bit on the pans. lovely video though cant wait to see the long term review. Jim
James OBrien Cheers Jim, yeah this was my buddys drone and you're right, frame rate isn't right. Cheers
Great to see the car moving about on the road instead of the normal generic drive by shots. Another cracking video Joe!
Thanks Richard, glad you liked it!
Brilliant edit Joe. Nice one.
Now this is content 👍
Great video can’t wait for part 2.👍
Top quality as usual 👍
Really great mate 👌🏼 well done
Motech Performance Thanks man 👊

ohgivemeabreakfeller Cheers man and agree re the modes, xDrive sport was a good default mode 👌
Great. Can't wait to see the full review
Another great video, such good quality!
You should try to arrange a comparison between the M5 and the Alpina B5, like you did with the M4 and Alpina B4 S, that would be EPIC!
Cheers man! That M4 vs B4 video cost me around £600, hence the reason I'm calling it a day with videos next month, I'm gonna be living on the streets haha
A true thug behind the wheel joe. Love it haha!
😎😎😎
Videos so much better now you've taken your sig out the corner. Good stuff Joe
Thanks mate, good feedback! Cheers
Nice video Joe 👌🏻
Stunning car, cheers for the review!
Can't wait to get mine!
What a Gorgeous Car
163 MPH wow in NEW YORK we don't take chances going up to that speed and if we do, we're risking getting our driver license suspended. Nice video 🔥🔥💯
That car is absolutely stunning. Very jealous.
That yellow range warning though... :D :D :D
Haha I know, we arrive at the pump with 1 mile left ;-)
Hi Joe, as ever love your behind the BMW wheel driving after driving a few Audi RS6's in your time is the XDrive as good as quattro from Audi as they are due to Launch a new RS6 later this year now that will be bonkers fast and I assume over 605Bhp I reckon around 640Bhp with a increase in the torque figure now will Audi spoil the party for BMW and Mercedes or will BMW still have the upper hand ?
Hey Joe it also depends on wich Autobahn you are, the A4 from Dresden (Saxonia) to Erfurt (Thuringia) is to 80% deristricted and less traffic than other. My Rekord for 40km (24,8miles) in under 12 minuets.
On the 155mph limiter, I'm told that you go through it if not in top gear. Not sure if anyone has tried... but I will next month. Saves £2k on the drivers package...
Makes a great noise under load :)
You hanging around the gents toilets again?! 😄
Wicked car, BMW have done a proper job this time 🤛
Nice vid mate as always. As much as I like the new 5 series, I just can't stand the drug dealer black colour scheme. Especially when it's combined with a MASSIVE SHINY CHROME front grill.
z00h Haha yeah black on black is a bit too gangster spec for me too
Thks Joe,good one.
Do you do any other cars besides BMWs? just curious...
looks the bomb
Looking forward to the M5 Part 2 vid. I think the BMW Marketing Dept. shot down your drone as a revenge attack for you poking fun at their carbon fibre engine cover :-)
Haha yeah maybe! They probably won't like my slight negative point, but in reality its my honestly that gets viewer believing my positive points, hopefully they see that and buy me another drone ;-)
0:28 Brilliant
Yess mate
What a machine!
Steve Rogers Thanks, what you think of the car 😂😉
I just think the M5 is mega, you sure gave it a leg stretch. I am thinking of getting a M140i in sept/oct after seeing your bad boy. If you have any pointers drop me a line please pal.
Great autobahn footage and attitude. The brand that is all about widebody for some reason continues to refuses to widebody the M5/6 despite all their competitors doing it - also BMW need to lift their game on the ceramic option, how much they cost, and they just paint the base model single piston slider rear caliper gold lol
Beautiful
Car suits you better than the 1 Series - start saving :)
❤М5❤F90❤👌🤝👍🤗😍👿👉🔊👌👍
My dream car is an M5... pretty much any one from e39 on up.... unfortunately... my budget only allows me an e39 540i M-sport 6 speed with a DINAN tune...19" staggered wheel and some custom exhaust/intake. it's still a fun car, but not quite an M5.
Hi guys,
This is off topic but,...
At 5.33 the mercs boot with the dog in it is divided by some metal partition to make a top and bottom compartment. Ive been looking at something like this for my own car for ages but havent found anything...
Can some one point me in the right direction, does anyone know what those partitions are called?
It is full of Belgian drivers Hahahahaa x)
Nice one Joe : )
Finally. Woohoo!
Yeah sorry about the delay!
This or the RS6?
2:19 I love real ducks.
Hold on a minute, was that a mistake the engine cover cost what, 2 pints and my ears are playing up
Haha no mistake, the cost of a small 2nd hand car!
Really confused, what is the difference between the f90 and g30 model codes for the new 5
I guess the g30 is the "regular" 5 and f90 is the M5
Yeah exactly, so F is M cars in current 5 series and G is regular
So 100k & it isn’t really any faster than your M140i top end!
you know you're german when you hear non german people talking about how scary it is driving over 200km/h on the autobahn and you're just thinking, no feels just normal to me. absolutely fine with it. :) :) :)
Yeah but you're not German, Marian. You ain't fooling anyone broski.
Ok. M5 or B5? :)
Difficult one! The M5 is more of a focussed performance tool, the B5 comes in Touring :-)
I Fuckin Love the 2018 F90...
Bmw had to go 4wd with the m5 it was falling behing v amge63 & rs6
A qui no Brasil o volante é do outro lado hahaha parece que dese lado nao combina
Amazing car, but i dont change my E60 for this, i love BMW but little by little it is losing the sportiness, this more for a luxury car that is also sport, and not for a sport that has some luxury like it used to be!
Yeah man the E60 will always be king!
Click here @ 0:26 to see hooligan mode engaged. Nice.
Hahaha
Dude why would I click 26 seconds into a 12 minute video. Like it would take me longer to find your comment and go to the timestamp than to just watch the video lol
Just an observation up to yòu wether to waste your time or not.
It’s a shame they still limit their cars… I know you can get the limiter completely removed by a tuning company but that may cause issues with your warranty… pain in the ass. They should do like Porsche and let their cars unleashed.
Tuddec yeah I was hoping for 175mph plus for a 100k super saloon
100k? this same car will cost you 200k in holland :)
CarPassion that’s because they tax you to the balls over there.
That's socialism, mate.
Delivered with Pirelli tires :( that is really too bad!
Haha yeah I know, I don't have luck with UK press cars... Although the one i had on track had proper 4S's
👌
Great video, love the F90 so much nicer than the hideous F10.
you're hideous.
Daniel Sadjadian you think the f10 is hideous I think the f10 is awesome besides being a rear wheel drive only
The F10 and F90 look very similar lol. Almost like a facelift with AWD.
The f10 actually sounds more like a v8 and not an farting vw
black salami 😂😂
It’s missing aggression just in terms of appearance, seriously lacking arches. With the rs6 yet to come out this is a real sticking point because the estates from merc and Audi looking bad ass
Awesome car though, BMW is still the one to have
tanafc96 yeah I do agree, doesn't have the menacing looks of the E60 M5 or current RS6 and E63s
tanafc96 do you like how the w218 cls63 coupe looks? Rear arches are huge on it
It did take BMW 2 versions to step-up to E63 AMG 😂
We are in 2023 I wish I could afford a 2018 M5 ☹
I would pick a e60 over both anyday but F10 is way better than that...4 cyl😂
Yeah E60 is king if you can afford to run one, terrible gearbox though. What 4 cylinder are you talking about?
Its G30 not G35...
G35... Did I say that?
@@JoeAchilles1 2:44 3:29 and few more times :)
Sorry buddy just listened and i didn't say that, I said G30 5 series. I would never say G35, I went to the G30 global launch and have known it as that for 2 years.
A ‘premium pack’ on a £90k car, how gullible are people these days?
Ste Heaton Yeah it is ridiculous, but all the Germans are guilty for it
