2018-2020 BMW M5 | The Most Insane Luxury Sedan Ever

Sdílet
Vložit
  • čas přidán 21. 10. 2018
  • The M5 is one of the most insane cars sold in America and yet at the same time eminently practical. With launch control you can run 0-60 times that would make Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and McLarens jealous, but it seats people in comfort and has enough room in the back for rear facing child seats and two sets of golf clubs. The lateral grip isn't quite in the super-car category but it's shockingly close while delivering a ride that won't bruise your kidneys. BMW's latest AWD system improves traction in adverse weather yet is fully-defeatable when you want to do doughnuts and burnouts. The M5 is quite simply one of the most impressive engineering accomplishments from Germany, yet at the same time it's upsetting all manner of BMW M-faithful. But they couldn't be more wrong... This is the best M ever.

    Great review! I
    Even though my white 18 AMG E63 S wagon was wonderful in many aspects. The roughness in low speed and too firm air suspension in daily drive made me committed to exchange for my new ride.........fully loaded M5 a week ago. Even it is just a regular m5, I indeed do feel the she is hair faster in acceleration (3.12 for 0-60 with the wagon). That was my 3rd E63 over almost a decade. This m5 provides impressive speed in a more gentle way. She can be very wild if choose so. I guess I am getting a bit older. Even I still like to drive very fast but now I choose to be in more “smooth” way of fast.......:)

Tech in terms of what? The gesture controls? I'm good, BMW doesn't even offer Android auto. I'll give you Idrive is overall better but MB infotainment looks better and idc about handling and who's quicker because both will crush any car that isn't a super car. So I'm taking the E63s

    • @stubones
      @stubones Před 5 lety

      BMW deliberately don't offer Android Auto, but if you did your research you'd know that and their reasons for it. Everything I wrote is the general consensus after dozens of reviews, the gesture control is an option (no one holds a gun to a buyers head), Merc have to two stretched tablets glued to the dash, which is a bit hit and miss in terms of looks. BMW is focused, the controls are better, the ergonomics are better, the build quality is better (also the general consensus). As for the exhaust note, buying a $130k car for it's exhaust note is juvenile and the M5 is deliberately not "shouty" because it's a car aimed at executives not 25 year old youtubers. You can "get" your flawed E63S and if I really wanted to I'd out an Akrapovic exhaust on my M5 and it would sound brutal and then I'd have it all LOL. Fun fact though, neither you or I can afford these cars so it really doesn't matter. LOL Lord help you indeed. BTW I'd love to own a E63S, but if I had the money I'd choose the M5 Competition Pack. There is simply no competition to it.

      @@stubones lls im well aware that neither you and I can't afford these cars, but for ME and MY preference and the fact that I work around BMWs on a everyday basis, I can tell you what I MYSELF like and dislike more between the E63 and M5. So if I want a car that has a much better exhaust note, especially a High priced Luxury SPORTS sedan with a powerful V8, I want it to sound menacing and incredible from the factory, for MY pleasure. And if it's seem "Juvenile", then BMW should "deliberately" not make Sports cars because who ever would drive so sporty in their "EXECUTIVE" vehicles are childish and not "worthy" with adolescent mindset on going fast etc. Spare me with the pro BMW talk, I hear that crap enough from the salesman.

    M5 definitely no doubt .... It is more advance than the two, etc you can actually use gesture control for commands and gesture control to drag and move the cameras around the car and also I love the upgraded touch screen key fob that you can achieve data and have control of the vehicle. BMW is the first to innovate the I DRIVE control which is the best in the market today. And there is a lot more technology that I can’t go into right now. The M5 is more of a driver car its more controllable and compare to the amg (where the gear lever is on the steering wheel) the M5 is right were you need it to be. Overall the M5 is the fastest (not to mention the competition package), it is more comfortable and have more styling and also you have more options to choose from. M5 is like having 2 cars in 1 you can take it on the track or you can drive normally with your family inside very comfortable, this is why the BMW M5 IS TRULY THE ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE.

      I totally agree. Any of the internet idiots who think this new M5 with AWD is not a typical M car is right. Its not a typical M car, its much better. Anyone who knows about cars knows that a powerful car like the M5 will perform better, especially sharp corners at high speed with an AWD system. Plus BMW was smart enough to give you the option to turn off the AWD system and just have rear wheel drive if you want to do burnouts or racing on a drag strip. But if you want to take the M5 on a twisty track, make sure you have the AWD system on

    AN excellent and comprehensive analysis and narrative. However, I would have liked to have seen how the trunk was finished under the center mat. I think you should have mentioned that instead of 8 user programmable short cut buttons like on immediately previous generations, there are now only 7. Did this not have the heads up display? Also, is this the iDrive7 or still the iDrive6?
    Keep going as the graphics, if not the video jump cuts, are first rate and informative.
    I cannot find your review on the E63S through CZcams search. I was interested because most reviewers have noted the ride in that car is rougher and not as serene as the M5 in comfort mode. Also, the tank capacity of each would be helpful as multiplied by MPG yields a refueling frequency datum.

      Adding to what Bennie said, they make anywhere between 630-650hp depending on the mileage of the car and the dyno used. Cars that are still "tight" (lower mileage just over the run in mileage) make just over 630hp. There are claims of M5s making up to 670hp, but that's not realistic. The AMG E63S is also making in the region of 650hp, not the 603bhp Merc claim.

The hellcat is insanely powerful w 700hp, and the same ZF 8 speed as the m5. Yes it lacks AWD, but for a RWD only sedan, 0-60 times are very close to the m5, and the biggest ace for the dodge: it’s half the price.

    Cadillac all the way for me. It's simply more fun to drive, and that's what driving is all about. Most of the modern BMWs leave me cold, they are simply too "robotic", as Alex says, to drive.

    Unless the transmission in the E63 is catastrophically bad, the E63 seems to be the best overall.

    The worst thing about owning an F90 M5 is not being able to test it's limits on a daily basis. 🙄

    Can't fix a transmission. The CTS V interior looks cheaper and not well done. I'd go with the M5 or 2 G90s.

    E39 M5s will always be the greatest. Closest thing to a perfect car and done without 70 million computers, crappy iDrive, forced induction, and any other unnecessary things added on to all these new vehicles. Best M5??? Really, with an auto trans??? Get the hell outta here!🤣

    I'd like to see proof of this 2.8s 0-60 (and I mean standstill to 60, not using rollout). I've seen Vbox verified 3.1s 0-60 times but never under 3. For the record the 720S is capable of a 2.5s 0-60 on the right surface and using it's OEM tyres (Pirelli P Zero Corsa). The CC brakes are not designed to reduce braking distances, they are designed to be used for repeated high speed braking in order to reduce fade. In a one off test you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between standard steel brakes and the CC brakes.

    • @AAutoBuyersGuide
      @AAutoBuyersGuide  Před 5 lety +3

      Generally speaking most 0-60 times given are using 1 foot of rollout. It's arguably a silly way to measure, but that's the generally accepted standard. For the record, the 720s we tested in September with OEM tires ran 2.8-3.0s (again with rollout) mainly due to traction. 2.8 was the fastest time but that required throttle modulation, extra care and a bit of luck. Also for the record, Car and Driver got a shockingly similar 0-60 and 1/4 mile time out of their M5 tester.

    • @AAutoBuyersGuide
      @AAutoBuyersGuide  Před 5 lety +1

      Actually we were able to test the M5 with and without the ceramic brakes and even in initial braking tests they reduced stopping distances by 9-10 feet on average even when the brakes were cool.

      Wait a minute. I do understand that AWD offers an advantage in intital acceleration. But, are you suggesting it is much easier to record sub 3s 0-60mph times in an M5 than a 720s? Because, numerous car journalists/enthusiats recorded 0-60mph time 2.5-2.7s (with rollout), in testing the car. And without rollout, 2.8-2.9s. Road & Track even noted that the would never know the 720s isn't AWD based upon the way it launches. On the other hand, I've never heard anyone record 2.5-2.7s 0-60mph times in testing the M5.
