Not just the X5M, the M50i with Adaptive M suspension is almost as insane with the handling and delivers properly on power go with that. Going down the line to the 50i and 40i it starts to lose the feel as the power output does not match up with the tight handling anymore.
A lot of people who don’t have BMW car don’t appreciate how good they are, I have an M4 Comp and have drove top Mercedes and Audi’s which are great cars but not got the fun factor if you want to call it that. Great vid mate !
In my opinion one of the biggest sleepers on the road, especially considering most people confuse it with the M50d 😂 the way this X5 M (and the previous generation) can handle turns is impressive for its size and makes it the perfect compromise for those of us that need the space, leg room, safety and high riding position of an SUV.
Have a previous gen x6m. Can confirm, that thing changes your perspective on what’s physically possible. People who say fast SUVs are useless because they are heavy etc have never driven something like this, or they would realise that you don’t lose a lot with them even on track. And on normal roads that loss of handling isn’t noticeable. You do notice the raised clearance driving daily though.
Brilliant mate, loved every second of that! I have a very old X5 myself, just can't bring myself to sell it. Would probably fall apart on track but I still love the old girl.
I swear, this is my favorite driving video ever. I get way more out of having a "normal guy's" reaction than a seasoned pro. That Porsche driver must have been TRIPPING.
Brilliant! I drive a X3M Competition, coming from a Porsche and know that it takes a while for your instincts to come to terms with something that big and heavy cornering and braking like that. Best video yet.
There’s nothing anyone can tell me that can say Bmw isn’t the best German car that there is. Winning all drag races/rolling races and now keeping up with quarter of a million pound super cars on a track in a big SUV!
I bet you hardly know anything about car just because it sounds good you my swap it... SUV is a car for familys and the m8 competition is the fastest most powerful out of all BMW @Stephen Lane
Brilliant video Archie, can concur these are beautiful machines and as the owner of the first version X5M e70 model it’s a beast and once you master the cars immense cornering ability the handling defies reality...👍👍👍
HILARIOUS lol He’s ripping that X5 M and you’re in the passenger seat with your hands clasped together😂😂 Mad props to your boy haha I’m sure some people got salty, that session
I sold my Porsche when the kids got too big and was told by the wife we needed a family car - so I bought one of these, heated, massage seats and this kind of track day capability…perfection 👌🏻
Phenomenal machine. One question; that X5M Competition seems to be lowered, can you tell us if it was and what lowering kit was installed. Looking to install on mine. Thank you and keep up the amazing videos 👍👍
How can three hundred people give a thumbs down on this, are they stupid or just deluded?? Class video Archie, would love to have seen the expressions on the faces of the drivers in super cars when you went past. Please do some more like this - awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻
Archie, this is one of your very best videos ever. The look on your face at least 25 times as a passenger made me laugh so much. Also, being a former pro formula Atlantic driver, I have yet to find one who’s comfortable as a passenger. You looked like you pissed yourself those 25 times during your drive. Your facial expressions just made me fall all over myself. If BMW should use this video of yours they will sell 20 times more of this car because how it handled on the track. Ted
I can’t stop watching you in this BMW X5 Comp. You are typical race car driver in the passenger seat and you freak out when someone else is driving. Your facial expressions are the real reason I keep watching. From you latest video you mentioned you were going to get a NEW X5M Comp. I sure hope you do and put your usual hop up accessories. You must get a BLACK one. The car looks so stunning. Ted in Newport Beach CA.

BMW M engineers did one hell of a job. Kudos
We make them here in my neck of the woods. Spartanburg, SC! Badass car
Well, correction, I forgot that this car was the competition model. Nevermind my post haha
Dude in that GT3 RS is pissed that the X5M is keeping up🤣💀🤣 Kudos to BMW M and the driver here.
The driver was amazing. Don’t think there are many that could get the most out of the suv like he did
Just needs to improve his skills. GT3RS would destroy it on the track with the comparable driver
@@markd7922 watch again!!!!!! The gt3 driver is one of the beter drivers.
@@pasma1983 yeah it shows.
@@markd7922 ur just butthurt, nothing else going on.
i reckon his girl would be less scared than him
He is a girl 🤣
He’s acting for the camera
And what role does Gender in that role mate?
@@mystorymenzi7726 that was 6 months ago why u reading all the comments
Haha brilliant mate, Jonny can pedal literally anything really well 😂 You're a terrible passenger, need to get you in my car one day 👊
Ly joe
What happened to the m8 competition
By the way the m8 competition is the fastest out of all BMWs
It sounded like you were talking yourself into buying one .... why not ...much better than the Range Rover ...:)
I would love to see that :)
The X5M is madness🤯
Not just the X5M, the M50i with Adaptive M suspension is almost as insane with the handling and delivers properly on power go with that. Going down the line to the 50i and 40i it starts to lose the feel as the power output does not match up with the tight handling anymore.
Please put BmwX6 M on this track
beast
Sweaty balls
I agree but the x6m competition I would say is better in my opinion
A lot of people who don’t have BMW car don’t appreciate how good they are, I have an M4 Comp and have drove top Mercedes and Audi’s which are great cars but not got the fun factor if you want to call it that.
Great vid mate !
I never tried racing my X5. I've raced my 3 & 5 series. And won, but have not done that in years.
@@24k__J because you can’t drive?
Can agree with you. But i would say BMW maybe better at circuit but Amg are more fun i think
I have a 2010 335i with 38000 miles and nothing but issues
ABS module needs replacement
My parents have a GLC 63 S its way faster. they test drove this X5. also i drive a CLS 63 and its better and more reliable
X5M, perfect all round high performance suv 🔥

Archie: “That’s probably the most fun I’ve had on a track day”
Tony *left the chat*
Your best non gt4 video in a long time. It was hilarious to see you in disbelief at Jonny's driving. Brilliant driving from him!
In my opinion one of the biggest sleepers on the road, especially considering most people confuse it with the M50d 😂 the way this X5 M (and the previous generation) can handle turns is impressive for its size and makes it the perfect compromise for those of us that need the space, leg room, safety and high riding position of an SUV.
I can tell, M50d is no joke either
How a racing driver becomes a screaming little girl.
@@24k__J but he is a racing driver so?
for views, you will do everything my friend :)
Racing driver, meaning Archie??????
Driving and being a passenger is so different

Man that looks so much fun! The noise that thing makes. Who needs a GT3 RS when you have a suv! Such a cool video
Brilliant mate, loved every second of that! I have a very old X5 myself, just can't bring myself to sell it. Would probably fall apart on track but I still love the old girl.

Fastest Archie has ever been round silverstone
LOL
Wow this is fun, the BMW X5 M holds up pretty well considering it is a big SUV 😁 Please make more videos like this Archie..
Yeah it's about 6,000 lb too it absolutely amazes me everyday I drive it.
That was hilarious. Best vid to date and you were not driving 😂👌
Freaking insane. BWM is a different beast.
What kinda car?
It’s BMW not BWM
We don't want to watch you screaming, we want to see damn track and the cars
Speak for yourself. His reaction is warranted and geniune. That thing defies logic.
Epic video. I absolutely loved Archie’s reaction and expressions as the X5M did its stuff. What a vehicle.
Man, I'd want to hear the commentary in the Porsche GT3RS and see the glowing brakes on the M5!!
For a racing driver sitting next to another you're really a stressful passenger 😂😂😂😂youre killing me😂😂😂😂just enjoy the ride mate☝👍😂😂😂😂
They were on 2 wheels at one point😂he was legitimately scared for his life lol.
Great video! I was surprised how well the X5M kept pace on the track
Brilliant! I drive a X3M Competition, coming from a Porsche and know that it takes a while for your instincts to come to terms with something that big and heavy cornering and braking like that. Best video yet.
i love these type of videos of good drivers on track. always my favorite
Great video👌, IVE TUNED MY BMW X6M to over 710BHP they are great👍👍
There’s nothing anyone can tell me that can say Bmw isn’t the best German car that there is. Winning all drag races/rolling races and now keeping up with quarter of a million pound super cars on a track in a big SUV!
This is what we want to see Archie 👌 that BMW V8 sounds fantastic. maybe trade in your M8 for a X5M?
If I smack you, you will stop talking nonsense
@@moontuun usual idiotic dumb response on a public media platform, ever heard of refraining?
I bet you hardly know anything about car just because it sounds good you my swap it... SUV is a car for familys and the m8 competition is the fastest most powerful out of all BMW @Stephen Lane
It's fake noise unfortunately
@@moontuun and also the m8 sounds the same (if not better) because they have the same engine
@10:53 I admire how positive you are Archie.
The Jeep Trackhawk may have good power like this does but the X5 M is still in a different class. Fast but still comfortable and sophisticated.
THIS is what you call proper content Archie boy!
Brilliant video Archie, can concur these are beautiful machines and as the owner of the first version X5M e70 model it’s a beast and once you master the cars immense cornering ability the handling defies reality...👍👍👍
I'm now sold on one of these with a tune.
HILARIOUS lol He’s ripping that X5 M and you’re in the passenger seat with your hands clasped together😂😂 Mad props to your boy haha I’m sure some people got salty, that session
I sold my Porsche when the kids got too big and was told by the wife we needed a family car - so I bought one of these, heated, massage seats and this kind of track day capability…perfection 👌🏻
Best video you've done, I was scared sitting on my sofa
Wow that was amazing, so impressive and a thrill to watch.. what a super skilled driver Joynny is......
Epic video, amazing car, outstanding driving, could’ve watched a lot more of that 👍
Probably one of the best BMW commercials ever. What a car!
That was great fun to watch mate...well done, fantastic content ! 🤣👍
0:45, check your nose
coca?
Cola
I hate passengers like this, they make it impossible to enjoy yourself.
Great video. Awesome Car X5 M
Jonny !! Jonny !!
I Thought that was hilarious
Phenomenal machine. One question; that X5M Competition seems to be lowered, can you tell us if it was and what lowering kit was installed. Looking to install on mine. Thank you and keep up the amazing videos 👍👍
That was impressive. I’m always scared as a passenger 😂
This one looks a little lower than stock - am I seeing that correctly? Any mods, even minor, on this one? Cheers!
Its coud be because its m competition. I can hardly process my dads m5 competition rear wheel gap
Most likely lowered, MSS are doing an X5M kit now. Even the Comps sit slightly high as standard so defo been modified.
Hi, nice educational video. Can you tell after how many minutes of active track driving the brake rotors started glowing? Thanks
Jonny is chaos and you are just hilarious to watch as a passenger Archie.... so want more of these.....
I recently bought a 2016 X5M and I can tell you first hand how much fun they are! Great video!
How can three hundred people give a thumbs down on this, are they stupid or just deluded??
Class video Archie, would love to have seen the expressions on the faces of the drivers in super cars when you went past.
Please do some more like this - awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant vid, amazing driving, great car, very impressed with that bus, shocked
Hi Archie, you mentioned Tuning & Figures, do have any of those figures & a good tuner please
That engine sound is stunning. Love it😍
It is almost certainly the fake sound BMW pipes into the cabin. They call it Active Sound Design. You can disable it in a few different ways.
@@johnp999 you can turn it of!!
@@pasma1983 Isn't that what I said?
@@johnp999 yes, thats why i say again, you can turn it offfff. So ur reaction is not needed!
The sound in this video is not fake.
@@pasma1983 Your brain is tiny.
Had to come back and watch this a second time, absolutely brilliant video
Dear editor of the video, next time can you show us a complete footage of a turn instead of cutting off to the passenger's face. Thank you.
That driver in the X5M Comp is a serious professional!! He literally drove that thing to its limit!! 😳
"I fink I need to frow up, mate"
-Archie Hamilton 😆
Please tell me that misspelling was intentional 😂
Damn boy you made my day pushing my adrenalin hahaha !
Archie you can CLEARLY SEE the Competition badge on the tailgate🤔. So it’s an X5 MCompetition. Not just an M👍🏻.
Title and description: X5M Competition
I'm curious as to the traction settings for this with all that understeer, the old one wasn't like that at all
Well it was raining so you'll always have a little understeer in a 2+ ton car
Was this car completely stock? No brake pad upgrade?
We like these ones boy. Be nice to see you driving at some point
Haha, one of your best vids, need more of this!!!

Awesome video! Would've loved some more camera angles, but this was really cool.
Yes! Would definitely love a look at the speedometer.
This was hilarious 😂
have you lowered your x5m？ MSS suspensions？
Archie, I can’t stop watching this video. This is so fun. Ted
Got one as my daily drive, great cars but terrible fuel consumption, I would love to know what it did on the track?
nice video bro. how is the X5M against the X3M competition? about the same performance or not really?
The moment Archie finally realized hes a girl
Which supercars did it destroy then (except the GT3RS that in the end eventually slowed down)?🥱
yeh they were playing with it really, the speed that 720 shot past and the gt3rs at one point, however very impressive that x5m.
Dudes must've been 🤯 when they saw the X5M slingshot to the outside on em 💨
this video needs to get more recognition
Great car enhanced with the MSS Automotive Lowering Springs really pulled it all together
Best video I’ve seen from you in a long time 👌
Archie, that's a real race car driver sitting next to you there lad.
Total Chaos. Loved it
Fair play, that was an epic video!
0:46 seconds in he been snorting to boost he’s confidence 🤣
This is the only time Archie is funnier than Tony, as a passenger.
That was so much fun!
I wonder if the X3 M Comp would do a little better around the track with the less weight....?
The guy on the passenger side!🤣😂Dude you should never get in the race car! Hope they had an ambulance on standby for you incase your heart stopped!😂🤣

My X3 M40d shocks many a fast car with its massive torque.
Great but this vid is about the X5M, let’s keep it there mate.
Great dynamic with you a Jonny quality video with you two deffo would watch more of these types of vids you riding shotgun
More track days in unconventional cars/suv's please......???!!!!
Aint no Trackhawk........
Can you tell me please what spacer have been fitted to this car🙏
Sorry wheel spacers
How’s this dude claim he’s a racing driver and act like this?
What a driver and what a BEAST. Don't think I would have lasted in that drive. Lots of love for BMW.
What’s an X5 M or M Competition like as a daily driver?
Goes to show with the right driver, any car can be fast around a track. Him in the gt3rs must feel silly haha!
