I generally hate orange cars, but I love this. The white is boring. If I actually took trips, I would buy it. I don’t care about weight. It wouldn’t be a track car.

I've been wondering if values will increase as these will become legal to import into the U.S. soon. I know I'd like to bring one over (and then manual-swap it)...

Other than the sheer mass, this M5 looks awesome and has a fierce menacing presence . Think they will sell every single one fast

Do people seriously think they added 1000lbs of weight because they wanted to? |

Yes I understand that TU2 is because of emission standards. But as BMW ups their boost pressures to atomize fuel more and burn more efficiently that also give tuners new opportunities. With port in addition to direct injection, that means you can up to fuel. I agree, the weight penalty is getting absurd.

Drove the sedan after i put in an order for the touring.. still happy to have it next to my M3CX, R8 and the wife’s X6M ANY DAY!
Will be trading in my Hummer EV for it when it comes in so i’ll be downsizing on weight anyways 🙃 It is SO powerful and the transmission tune is more agressive. It moves its weight pretty well but didn’t get to corner it much.
