Plus more than half the people crapping on this car here have no intentions of buying an M5 to begin with. I don't care what other people here think. I know what I want.

This. It's very clear that the majority of the posters on BMW forums and the BMW subreddit are people who are just there to complain and troll. I don't understand why people go post on a car forum for a car they don't like. Like, I think the G Wagon is the stupidest car being made, but never in a million years would I go to the G-Wagon forum and post shit. Just seems childish.

I’m surprised how many care about drag times for a $125K automatic/hybrid sedan. Yeah, it’s cool, but when are you actually going to do that in the real world?

I guess the same could be said about how many people are going to take their M5 into corners on their daily commute where you feel like the weight of the vehicle is hindering how fast you get to your destination.

I've watched every single YT review on this car and my take away from all of them is that this car is:

Faster than the F90 in a straight line
Not as nimble in corners
More compliant suspension for daily use
Usable EV only range

All sounds good to me.

a forum solely based on fact and not opinion would make little to no sense... go ahead and remove all "vs" threads as well... because what's the point of any comparos if you like the car? Or this video at all if again you like the car already?

That's so true, a hybrid driven long distances or like a sports car will use way more gas and make way more Co2 emissions than a pure ICE... I had for a short while a 330e and this thing was emptying it's tank and consumed way more than any M cars I had on a road trip, the weight penalty on consumption cannot be overstated, the Co2 figures and tax break a pure hypocrisies. The only thing it was kind of good at was short distance commute in pure EV mode (even then you could argue it's also penalised by having to carry an ICE in the front bay)...

I am going to give it a year or two, maybe wait for the LCI, but I will definitely be getting one of these. I have a base 2018 M5 right now, and love it. But i think this one will blow it out of the water.
