Sure it wasn’t Goodwood festival of weight ? If course they did not even push it. They wanted to showcase that thing going uphill half throttle. To hide the weight 🤣 Sounding as if did in that video it might as well had 4 banger. Wouldn’t make any difference in this regard.

Anyone have an E 39 M5 that they want to sell? In my opinion the chrome grills are disturbing to my eyes. Why chrome???? After purchasing this (I don't know what to call it) brute, make sure you have enough funds put aside for brakes and tires because if driven the way an M5 should be driven you will need it. Also since this thing is heavier than my 2016 X5M with the roads being the way they are wheel alignments will be needed regularly. For those purchasing this Good Luck

I understand that the physical nature of the digital dash will be the same for all BMWs, but I REALLY wish M would offer an option for a digital rendition of classic BMW round gauges for the speedometer, tachometer, oil temperature, etc. Shouldn't be that difficult to offer a few different layouts on a fully digital dash...

I wonder is the grill that illuminates black unless it’s on? The metallic black doesn’t have it it seems. The black one would look sick with a blacked out grill in the front

Think that they are testing still, or prepared it only for this event. Maybe available in the configurator at some time?

IMO this looks kind of nice, who doesn't want all blacked out M5

I'm really worried about the interior quality of the car. I hope these are just the pictures.

Interior materials and the whole premium feel is downgraded. Cheap hard plastic door panels, and mirror switches. The seats kind of ok, the steering wheel feels very good

The rear end of this car is pretty yucky. Looks like a semi full diaper that was polished at the last minute. Sure hope a pure ICE CS version someday comes online. The F90 is still quicker & faster in ALL regards...

I doubt we'll ever see another fully ICE M5. Maybe there is hope with the M8 line, it is still for sale. Maybe they do an M8 CS..

Which is the unfortunate price to pay for an all-ICE vehicle moving forward. If you don't like it, complain to the people who make the regulations in your areas.

Seems like the way of everything these days - reduce quality and increase price!

Well, the XM is a new platform and unproven. I was really referring to the mainstream series.
