Mr.AMG on the NEW M5: The Explosive FULL Review!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- The BMW M5 is BACK! BUT now it’s all wheel drive! The original, regarded as the pinnacle of the Fast Saloon formula: Munich’s brutal M5. It’s never been a car for the faint of heart, always regarded as super car shamer, the first car that comes to mind when you think of the term “Sleeper”. But: now for the first time in it’s history it’s no longer RWD only, it’s now got switchable four wheel drive! And a full drift mode, as well as a more powerful 592 BHP 4.4 Twin Turbo V8!

Will it be enough to unseat the E63S for me? Does that even matter? I think not!

That intro was quality!
Remove Before Race Nah bruh🚫
Remove Before Race hell yeah....
Your videos are some of the best on UA-cam and this is one is a better car review than most on Top Gear too. When some channels have over a million subscribers and you only have 35K is one of the great puzzles of the modern world. Anyways I have ordered an E63S estate from Hughes and are expecting it Sept/October. They have upgraded the steering wheel for post June 2018 builds too. Gone for drivers assist package so will have AMG sports seats rather than performance seats. I am okay with that.
compared with the e63 as you m5?
It’s nice to see a Mercedes guy actually give an objective view on an bmw and not say crap for the sake of saying crap.
Being a brand loyalistic aka fanboy. Is worst thing to everyone. They miss out great cars and companys dont have to make cars actually better because they will buy them anyway
I currently own a ‘18 C63s and I agree this M5 is beautiful. I’m not huge on the bmw community because people with base model 3 series act like they’re driving super cars and all that. But I can respect a car like this for sure. Love it
It's called business.
It's called being mature
@@sahilshergill7278ouch 335i owner here that hurt lol
I just got my new M5 Competition 2 weeks ago. My most recent vehicles include 2018 S5 auto, 2012 991.1 manual as well as a 2006 997.1 in manual and I believe this to be the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. This is just the perfect blend of power, grace, comfort, looks and practicality. Well done BMW and that’s from a Porsche guy!
very good taste in vehicles. glad ur enjoying your newest car!
With recent shite M5 videos online, this one absolutely smashes it... And I've only seen the first 2 mins 😅👌
Thanks buddy!! Your first part is bloody good too!
Shots fired at TGE 😆😆😆
Shots fired at shmee
Joe Achilles your stuff is amazing too fella. Keep em coming.
Remove Before Race jjj
As a BMW fan for over 15 years, I've been following Rokenr for a long time. But this video with this type of editing just feels like it's my birthday.
Totally killed it man! Such an underated channel!
Ottoman TR buddy such comments make all the hard work worth it!! Thank you
The M5 is not designed to be a hotrod. The whole M5 ethos is about being an executive express not an upsized M2. Bmw designed the car the way they wanted to knowing their target market (not M2/3/4 buyers). They also leave headroom for the CP, which buyers can choose as a more powerful, focused variant. The E63S was designed as a luxury hotrod. It’s not better or faster than the M5, it’s just a little different. Both cars have the pros and cons and it’s buyer’s choice. Added to that, the opinions of “the internet”, most of whom are ill informed dirt poor fanboys are utterly irrelevant to car manufacturers.
stubones 🙌🏼🙌🏼 preach
Well said👌
Best comment on these two cars I ever read. I feel exactly the same way. Buy the one you like. The "better" one is the one you choose to buy.
Extremely well said
Very well said 💯
Whomever did that graphic with the normal 5 series on the side view should be applauded 20 times. Quality stuff.
Thanks man!!! Had to teach myself but not a bad first go
Kudos
⚠️ P.S. I was wrong, it does have a Hot Vee engine! Makes the lag even more bizarre!
Remove Before Race it’s because it’s turbos are larger in size, so they take longer to spool up than the e63s
Are you sure you had the throttle response in Sport Plus?
Oh good im glad i read your update on your mistake! Lol i was about to get on your ass about it haha. As a matter of fact BMW was the first company to put a Hot Vee in sedan....in a sedan to be clear. Great review!!
@d c agreed
there is NO lag. stop wasting time and release the m5 competition review please.
The fact that you put actual effort into your videos is rare nowadays on UA-cam, so just for that, BIG thumbs up! Keep doing what you do.
Bro, you deserve so many more subs! Geez I was blown away with this review!
kamala80 thanks bro!!
Well done Raz, this is right up there as far as reviews go, excellent, informative and enjoyable to watch.
Mike Nisbet thanks Mike!!
The Most Beautiful Bmw Ever Made !!! Love it love it love it
now even more beautiful
Hands down the best intro, I have ever seen . Love the review however I would take the E63s
Really good to see a review of the M5 from a long-time AMG owner. Great job!!
The M5 has never been the aggressive looking car, it's meant to be understated. don't know what people expected tbh
Kings mario the E60 M5 was aggressive looking in my opinion.
Kings mario that’s why I love that btc bro
I couldn't imagine this car with wide guards.. Just wouldn't suit the audience it's selling to. It's staying away from sheep manufactures. You can see wide guards on a Hyundai these days. Big whoop.
This is some of the best automotive journalism on UA-cam. Just found your channel yesterday.. keep it up!
Mr. Amg, actually BMW were first to introduce V hot turbo layout not MERCEDES AMG! Bmw m5 f10 has the same layout of turbos, the thing is that bmw never emphasized this fact.
It was even before that, the N63 engine was inaugurated in the X6 in 2008 ! The first production engine with a « Hot V » setup
Yeah because they are humble, unlike AMG’s...
and now the m5 comp just destroyed e63s. DEAD
Lovely review, one thing I think you missed was the ride quality which having driven both the E63 and the M5 extensively, is very different between the cars.
I found the E63 to be a much harder ride where on UK B roads was quite harsh v the M5, but at high speeds and on smooth roads meant it handled better. The M5 was much softer and compliant and a nicer commuting car in my opinion. It thus could be a big differentiator depending on what type of driving a person would be doing.
Well said!
I consider my self very lucky because I had a chance to drive both M5 and E63 AMG not only for a short while but both for few days each.
The biggest different is suspension during regular every day driving. BMW is much much more comfortable car than E63 AMG.
The thing I like most in BMW is it feels much smaller car when I drive it but that comes to very 5 series this generation.
E63 is still very big heavy and u feel it every moment u drive it and some people may also like it.
I think u feel when sit inside the car u feel much more expensive and luxury in Mercedes. It’s more premium inside.
Actually not the tech in Mercedes is more impressive , digital in BMW is pretty nice in fact just the overall quality and design in Mercedes is better.
Rest of the differences comes to personal preferences what u like most. Both great cars.
Overall great video Raz. good luck.
Well said bruh agreed
Which exterior did you prefer? Does Bmw with less torque feel slower to drive going straight?
Red 2847 Mercedes Interior is more luxury and BMW is more sporty if u can say that. I prefer a Mercedes interior but it’s 50/50 if I talk to people.
In terms of “slower or faster” both cars are insanely fast. BMW 5 series feels like smaller car then E class Mercedes with any engine. Same way M5 feels smaller more agile car than E 63. Honest answer is u need to be amazing driver to feel those small difference between cars because both of them are very very fast. It’s very difficult to pick better car because it’s more about personal preferences what kind of car u want and witch way u want to use it and hear if. I prefer M5 because it’s more quite and it’s better daily because of suspension . Most people will choseE63 because of the engine sound. I rather have M5 because it’s more quite and usable everyday. If u want engine sound lauder and angrier E63 is better car. Personal preferences all the way.
Pevvex Pevvex thanks for that review.
What about exterior design which you prefer? It looks to me like the m5 body seems much wider/larger while e63 seems to look smaller from outside. Also the rounded on the e63 makes it look less aggressive to me vs the more angular m5 style what do you think?
Red 2847 in my opinion BMW M5 is ugly from the front and very nice at the back and Mercedes E63 is the opposite way. Overall it’s personal preferences. I would even say colors matter for this cars as well. BMW looks better in dark colors and Mercedes in light colors.
If it’s the look u want inside and outside I would take Mercedes. If it’s daily driver I take BMW. If I want brutal sound of V8 and have other cars to drive family I take Mercedes. If I carry family I take M5.
That’s all comes to this kind of choices u have to make because both cars are so similar and amazing.
Great reviewer. Even tho hes partial to amg, he was unbiased
Correction, it's a well known fact mercedes copied bmw v8 turbo Tech.. Not the other around. Biased review generally
@d c They are both German manufacturers. Quite frankly, they should copy each other. I'd be pissed if they didn't copy eachother. A good idea is a good idea.. workking together to bring about the best of both views and approaches towards a car. It should be like that with all car manufacturers.. then we'd just have better and better cars :)
Top Gear level production quality! Very creative!
AMG always better.
Best sedan ever. Can't wait to get my hands on it one day.
The F90 M5 is actually wider in the front than the normal 5 series
The M5 actually has turbos in the V!
Jānis Kovaļevskis Indeed i got it wrong, it does have a Hot Vee, but Makes the lag even more bizarre!
Remove Before Race Interesting. I didn’t notice much of a difference in throttle response when I moved to AMG GTS from an M5 F10. I remember M5 having close to a N/A response, maybe I need to hop in one now after driving an AMG it would be easier to tell!
Car reviews have just been taken to the next level by RBR with that intro
Exterior is certainly subtle, but the interior just blows everything else out the water for me. The luxuriousness of it, the tech and quality of the infotainment is just the best out there.
Exhaust sounded better than I expected too.
"Default position is Flaps open".. I love it!! what a review :)
Ridiculously good reviews from this guy. This channel should be massive.
Love the movie style intro and the effects. Your style of review also speaks more to average customers who generally buy these cars. Waiting for more brilliant stuff on your channel. Best wishes
I'm never disappoint with any of your auto reviews . The intro was out of this world. I would love for you to fly across the pond and review my 3.0 ,04 Passat .
Better than every e63s on the planet. You can take a stock M5, take it to the Nürburgring and you can do a 7:38, thats AMG GTS territory. Without tune bone stock! Thats why the M5 is the better car. The e63s is over 7 seconds slower ....
xCobi 99% of owners will not be able to squeeze out that marginal difference in performance. That is 1.5% faster than the AMG and unless you’re a professional driver then I doubt you will be faster...
I am a BMW fanboy, and this is one of best reviews ever. All your criticisms are valid.
What am amazing video! Great editing and reviewing. Best video yet!
Great video! I thought the M5 had a hot v turbo setup. In fact BMW used a hot v v8 before Mercedes.
Damien Sambrook Yes!! Sorry I was wrong, it does have a Hot Vee engine! Makes the lag even more bizarre!
Agreed about the wider wheel arches! It would look more aggressive
Growing up as a kid the M5 was my favorite car other than the obvious poster cars of the 80s and 90s( Mclaren F1, Ferrari F40, F50, Testorrossa, Countach, Etc). I am fortunate enough now that I am an adult and after working very hard for years I can afford such cars. I have owned new AMG products for the past 4 years starting with a 4matic w212 e63s. I love them all not only quality and reliability wise but from their over all personality. I currently own a w213 e63s and absolutely love it. I have already tracked my car 4 times, drifted it and hit up local drag strips with it. I am the hooligan that takes his 4 door family saloon and drives them to there limits( 3rd set of tires and on my second set of brakes) at 6300 kms. My other current car is the greatest car ever made: 2001 e39 M5. True M car. I love the damn thing even though its nearly 18 years old. I drove the new m5 f90....local BMW dealer brought it to my office for me to drive it. It was very fast, quality of materials was amazing, felt a little smaller than the E and I liked the non airbag suspension more compliant under comfort cruising but a little better dampened than the E. E feels like a race car. It edgy, loud, vicious and the steering feel is fantastic. E feels more exciting and makes every drive feel more of a special occasion. It feels like it has more of a soul and thats why I like it more. Amg has more class and more of a presence. M cars had it in the 90s and the early 2000s and maybe they will have that same excitement and prestige again.
Ali D completely agree having a e34 m5 there was nothing like it at the time
So which one felt faster? It seems all the test have the m5 faster in the straights despite its torque disadvantage. Also exterior wise it seems m5 looks a little larger in size giving it much presence as well
0:33 bruhh you unlocked with the keys with your another hand lmao 😂😂😂😂
Brilliant video and loved the intro!
Some of your camera work is amazing. Keep it up. Your stuff is better than some of the super big channels.
That intro ..!! Wow
Agree. This is a great channel-very underrated, but quality information, excellent delivery of data and reviews. Raz you’re a very, very good reviewer.
I’d take this over the now slightly over-caffeinated and occasionally trying to be theatrical Chris Harris.
Great review of the M5! Best on YT by far!
Awesome review! Loved the movie-like intro! It's beyond me why you don't have at least a few hundred thousand subscribers...
Best car reviewer on UA-cam - by a long way!
Very creative and professional job on this video. Thumbs up. edit: I know you're quoting the official claimed power and performance figures, but the real world figures for both, as with the E63S, are far more impressive :) another edit: The S63 V8 in the M5 has the hot V turbo set up.
Video just spews quality, from the editing , the shots , the originality, the host; pure quality!
Great video man,you graphic transition from present to previous models is superb,am new in car review and I must say you good too
Continue like this and you'll have your own TV show soon!
The intro was great and well put together, you need some lite hearted fun to the later very well balanced evaluation of the new M5 which was never going to be easy for you.
Thank you for sharing your honest opinion with us Raz, I found your review very interesting and extremely informative. I am in the final stages of choosing between the E63 and the M5 Competition, you have helped me with my final decision, the M5 it is. My current 74i Sport equipped with DINAN 3 is a keeper but she needs company. Thanks again for your excellent review. Dan.
Editing and content quality is off the rails. I subbed.
What the acc fuck?! The guy across my road has this exact car! Same number plate and spec...😆
Best M5 review currently online. Overall you got me interested = subscribed
Another great video Raz & Team - well done! Great intro, yes to more of them, it makes your videos standout!
bro you are the best of the best ? how come you are not hired by the likes of bbc to do a motor review program like top gear. absolutely smashing. I have a 2017 m5 and everything you said is spot on.
I see this channel growing and overtaking many many other mambo jumbo channels... Keep up the great work
how does this chanel only have 35k subs... great content, keep it up man
Very very creative! One of your best videos! I really think you would be brilliant as a presenter on top gear! I love this M5 but as you pointed out the lack of body design like arches front grill, rear of car. Even inside its shabby compared to its rivals. Keep it up raz this videos going to get a lot of views
Bruh the M5 has always been meant to be an understated vehicle
This is the best review I've ever seen... hands down. I'm an AMG fan but I would buy this car.
Raz is THE BEST in the car review business......the guy knows cars and what matters.
Cars are meant to be driven and M5 is the best car to drive. So by definition M5 is better than E63s. Can you argue with that.
The M5 Competition is the car you should have tested. It is the true competition for the Merc and absolutely kills it.
congrats on the special effect autodestruction smoke in the begining i was smiling :) what a car .
This car was supposed to be an understatement. You don't buy the M5 for its looks. You buy it because it looks slow but obligates competition.
Absolutely brilliant video. What a discovery! Will follow sir!
Felt like I was the only person who thought the M2 is the best designed M car to date. Anyways, great video!
Very nice review. Awesome job. Entertaining!
I’m a huge bmw fan and I got to say this is a honest review
just found this channel , i like how you are very informative and fair .
You may love your mercs ,but your a fair and well balanced reviewer .
Great video presentation ,audio is fantastic and the M5 looks awesome .
One thing they need to do with this M5 is give it some wheels ,the colour and design of them is a let down . The options are lacking an i agree with the idea of the overly silver dash face ,it's just a bit old fashioned and bright
Very well done video it was a pleasure to watch your thoughts .Subscribed
great design and product M5. It will come down to brand preference and the little details. Both E and 5 are excellent choices.
M5 has an hot v configuration.
Fair, objective review. Thanks for this video, it's brilliant! Give us more videos Mr AMG.
That was a cool Mission Impossible Style intro
I hope this shows just how much the BMW M5 F90 is worth. You should have ordered it instead of that E63s AMG
Join the family become a M5 owner
the dimension of both are identical e63 vs the m5. Granted I picked up the 2020 M5 I felt as though the steering was better and the car felt quicker and more exciting than the E63S. Not to mention the lease was almost double on the mercedes which was certainly not double the car.
The fact that it's quieter than an e63 was a main selling point for me and pushed me over the edge so I went M5. This is my daily and I take countless conference calls, drive around clients, kids, etc. and the e63 would just be too much sound. Either way, both amazing cars, curious to see what the new RS7 will sound like...As far as Mr. AMG, the best reviews I've seen on UA-cam, I watch them all even if I don't give two shits about the car.
This was definitely a treat ro watch! Great work!
Give this man a million subs! Totally underrated 😔
This was an amazing video! Your car reviewing skills are amazing! I think you should work at Top Gear or something. Once again, you did an amazing job
Wow great Intro. Better edits then bigger channels
That car has the most rear leg room of any car in its class. The X-drive can be switched off, then it's rear wheel drive.
Slushmuppypup Slushmuppypup E63s > M5
Very good review! I have now subscribed
36 years and never heard anyone call it a saloon.
Excellent unbiased review, thank you
Nicely done. Keep up the good work guys.
Love the unbiased review as an F90 owner
After driving both I can agree with you in general. E63s has better sound, but gear lever on the steering column is unforgivable. M5 sweet are soo sweet. And in the end it’s your subjective preference that will make you select the one for you. M5 CP in the mail, but it was a very hard call. I did fine the digital instrument on the E63s a bit cluttered, but did not drive either actively so I hope I won’t regret the steering ... I did however prefer it in heavy mode. M5 did seem a bit better equipped across the board, all was set to 11. But think what previous cars you have had will be a huge influence.
Killed it Raz! Awesome review!
same M5 lended to TGE TV ! BMW loves youtuber !
Probably because it's a press car LOL
jez zza I was just thinking that when in mentioned Park Lane has tge tv not said he brought the car 🤔🤔🤔
Noone cares about tge
good job with the vlogs Mr. question for you. new M5 or SVR?
18:19 You missed an opportunity to add a fiery track SFX, a la Back to the Future.
i really like that white color
Hi I really enjoy your videos. What is your background, and how did you come to be an expert on these cars ?
Great video, I'd love to hear your opinion on the new comp pack m5 vs the e63s. My lease is up in 6 months and trying to decide between the 2 cars and no dealers have cars available for a test drive near me.
Such a good channel 🤗
You just earned a new subscriber! What a top notch video and review! M5 is a hell of a machine but I’m more interested in your M4CS, as a current F80 comp owner, would you say it’s worth the extra??
i own this car, and i love everything except the most important thing. the seating position. i just cannot get comfortable. lower back pain non stop.. other than that. brilliant
BMW is on top of its game they always have been.
This guy is knowledgeable and thorough...worth more money than the clowns from Top Gear.
It's certainly much nicer than the F10 M5, but I still think the E63 S is nicer on so many fronts: much nicer sound, aggressive design, beautiful luxurious interior and the 4.0l AMG engine is absolutely amazing (it responds instantly and it's so damn fast). I just love the sense of urgency you get when you drive the E63 S, doesn't seem to be the same with the M5.
No one can take you seriously when you start with complete shyte "somewhat hideous F10 M5". There is being Mr. AMG and then is your 12 year old fanboy nonsense. Added to that the M5 is not the direct competitor to the E63S, the compeition pack M5 is.
Calm down it's just my opinion. And if you compare the F10 and the F90, the F10 just doesn't look nice. The F90 is so sharp, it has a much nicer front end.
Daniel Sadjadian
I only prefer the design of the front end better than that of the F10 M5. But the overall design is too squarish.
Daniel Sadjadian does Mercedes pay you for telling us that ? We all know the fact what are they . and yet the M5 F90 comp is coming so don't get very excited cuz its gonna demolish you're enthusiasm like the F90 did for e63s..
Audio doesn’t record turbos well. This car is very muscle and loud sounding in person. I’ve test driven it. I also own a 540i and my friend has a e400, both have great interiors.
Great video, but you didn't address the difference between the suspension Comfort between the M5 in the E63
