There are many buyers like myself who will never consider the G8x bec of the grille. I’m waiting for M2 comp or CS at this point. BMW went from every model being best in class from styling to driving dynamics to now being a brand trying to catch Tesla. |

Even if the new M5 is faster than F92 M5 Competition, it would be maybe 0.1 second at most which is not big enough to be considered.

Someone who agrees with me! I think my x5m has 305/315 staggered setup and it’s very similar weight.

I put my money on this car pulling like a freight train out of the box.
And I love my F90 but…. New is new. Has anyone here preferred the older gen m5 to the new gen (not considering financial situations) Let’s wait and see

I bet that BMW did all they possibly could to hide its weight and retain driving dynamics. It’s half the ton though. It was extremely hard task. It will pull that’s for sure, as long as hybrid system remains charged. Current M5 was considered handsome car from the get go. It was much better than it’s predecessor even on paper in every aspect except for transmission for some. This one though… check the size of this thread already.

Overall, agree with you on the sentiments of new generations. This time it’s quite different IMO. Massive changes. Let’s see what happens and post in this thread in a few months / years. Haha

Comparing G90 M5 with F90 M5, 1000 lb difference mean G90 M5 is not a track car at all while F90 M5 is a track car ... I can't even say G90 M5 is a true sport car but let's see how dynamic it is when is out.

I won’t comment on vettes- and that’s not my territory
Next- regardless of some people’s experiences or stats- I don’t consider an m5 a car I’d take on a track. It’s a car I can enjoy a drive home from work from- reflect on my struggles and triumphs, listen to the exhaust, and step on the gas when I want to grin. To each their own Absolutely none of us have driven, seen, or sat in the G90. So it’s an argument that falls on deaf ears and purely opinions. Sure. Sounds heavy. Sure, the numbers might make us scoff. But after we drive it, put exhaust on it, listen to the sound system, rip it- all of this is purely speculation. Just my.02 I consider a gt3 as a track car for the road. I have 2 child seats and 4 cardboard boxes of work material in my trunk, 2 cases of sunglasses and some scratch offs in the door cards. This is my daily. As it is for the(if I could throw a dart blind folded) the other 95% of owners. (Friendly debate btw. Don’t shoot)

And then I drove one and actively searched for one over the E60. It’s a cyclical thing The point I’ve said for 6 months now- “I’ll say it’s over when the fat lady shows herself” and I’ll probably still want to take her home

Great minds think alike
I’m just ranting on everyone’s crying on the negativity of a new m5 after a couple tequilas. Let me babble and buy me another
