the M5 has always been my favorite car...regardless of the generation. That trend is probably stopping with this one. The looks and obscene weight is just ridiculous. IDC how fast it is in a straight line
@@faheemabbas3965 Could not agree more...its a real shame. Light weight sports cars are a thing of the past. And they cant even build super sedans properly anymore.
had the pleasure to test it and what scares me the most is the clearance because of the long wheelbase. the floor scrapes when i drive it on my 7 car trailer 😂
people are going to get over the weight and odd looks. i still remember all the complaining when the F90 came out and now its supposedly the last real M5 lol. Life goes on
personally i would definitely still take the g80 m3 with a manual for the most driver oriented experience since the m5 now seems like way more of a GT car
I think this M5 looks way better than the F90 and the fact that you can get it as a Touring is making it even better. I am happy that there is not a lot of “drama” coming from this V8… I personally don’t care about the weight at all as it’s not a track car but rather a daily driver
@ this one is also not a track car. It’s a family car and always was in my eyes. I think less than 0.5% of people would ever use it on a track… so it makes sense what the M5 is now
Definitely would've gone with with the pano roof on this spec. The perfect way to get a subtle view of the red interior from the outside....even when tinted.
The boxy square design works great on the g87 M2. The M5, however, is a completely different story. The more I look at it, the more confuse my eyes get. At least, it still has the v8 and sure handle well for a boat.
Im actuallly starting to like this car a lot. I thought the weight would mean its slower but this thing torched a audi rs6 GT and rs7 perf .. it literally makes other sport sedans look like small peasants in its presence ❤😂
It’s too heavy. If a car 3400 3600 pound with 300-400 hp drive around next to you, he could turn and switch lanes multiple times faster then you can even signal right or left. If you ever drove a truck with 400 -500 hp you would understand
i would say, i love the Touring more, since the taillights of the sedan don't do it for me, while on the touring it suits it very well, at least the Touring is coming to north america!!
@ ok….well….but what about street/race performance? The fact that BMW chose @Hankook demonstrates that they are worthy performance tires….Toyo tires are at best decent off road tires.
Looking at the engine compartment... this is a lease it and hand it back to them.... so the usual type of use for a BMW.... never really own it just lease it... This or Lucid... I feel I want the Lucid but also would not mind the wagon version of this... which one will be more reliable... I am thinking the Lucid... LOL
this will probably be more reliable than the lucid air. the s68 has been out for around 3 years now and there havent been any major concerns, plus the fact that around 580 of the 730 total hp is from the v8, so the engine is far from stressed. bmw has also been making electric motors for over 10 years now so as a whole this should be relatively reliable.

At this point, I think every automotive youtuber should really stop trying to do "backroad" tests because its just going to end up getting you in trouble. The best thing is to do the on/off ramp corners because at least you can kind of take it a bit fast and not be in an area where people are and also you are not going triple the speed limit like some youtubers recently have : /
Why not square the tire up? Different wheel width, different wheel diameter, for only 10mm different tire width change? That's complexity just for the sake of it.
As a lover of the M5 (1987-2007) this is one ugly car, IMHO. Yeah no. I don't get it. Who at BMW approved these designs? And that paint is just awful. Looks like an afterthought, IMHO. Who is buying this thing? Russian mob? Arms dealers? So many more attractive options on the market for far less money, IMHO. You don't need 700+ hp for freeways and city streets. If you are tracking them or live in Germany (Autobahn which is designed for this kind of speed and stricter drivers license examination requirements) go for it. Otherwise whahduhsaywhat?
did you mark your bingo card today? 🙂 & this time it actually wasn’t my fault. walked off my flight into SC and got right into the M5. but i agree. lol
ewww... that red interior is disgusting. and i love that they made the back on the seats hard plastic for no reason other than to break your face if you get brake checked in the back.
It looks ugly as heck. The exterior looks too plastic-ish, the interior barely has buttons, the screen is too big and the dashboard is really boring. What's up with the ugly led stripe?
heavier than a tahoe, but a hell of a lot faster lmao

This color (together with the M kit) made it look so much better! It went from 6 to a solid 9 in my book!
people are going to get over the weight and odd looks. i still remember all the complaining when the F90 came out and now its supposedly the last real M5 lol. Life goes on
This will be the last actual M5 the next one will be only electric. Im just happy theres still a v8 no matter the design.
fr lmaoooo
I agree, they kept the V8 unlike the C63 which no one wants, it's heavy asf but it's still fundamentally the same car an M5 has always been.
I live 10 mins from this church so cool to see one of my favorite youtubers so close!
I honestly think it looks pretty good, interior is beautiful. Curious to see how it sounds with a Catless Downpipe and Exhaust!
this will be the real test. F90 sounded wild with downpipes
@@TopherDrives Im saying, the S65 sounds so nasty all we can do is cross our fingers!

Hankook are probably the most underrated performance tires out there.
I like my Toyo tires they have grip and quiet and suck up the road bumps. Unlike Hancook where u feel every crack!

Never selling my G80 M3 Manual for this...
That color hides the black plastic appendages nicely👍
the cockpit and steering wheel is money
just waiting for F90’s to drop a lil more in price 😭
they added the lil wing back to the headlights like they had on the 2004 v10 m5 if u guys remember that one lmfaoo
some E60 influence on the front for sure!
May be the last new M5 to ever exist. Ugly and heavy. Since Dukec’s now gone, hopefully Missoni can fix BMW’s designs.
im wondering does it make the "fart noise" like the f90 when upshifting
I really really miss when the M5 had a manual
The US model definitely sounds better and louder. Hopefully they make a Competition or CS model
Bro had to do the MKBHD disclaimer lmaoooooo
Funny how it's cheaper than an M3 in certain countries due to the PHEV's lower emissions.

It’s better to buy M8 or M850i, while it’s still available. Lighter, faster, prettier, better interior plus there are great deals on those now.
