Pretty good going....

All the bedwetting about the weight and 0-60 times can now stop. Looks incredible.

Kudos to bmw..bring on the comp, cs please

Glad to see reviews are so glowing. Can’t wait for touring reviews. I’m holding out for the comp/cs as well

Enjoyed his review and has me second guessing initially wanting to hold off on an M5/M5T. However, I still think the LCI will be the one to get.

LOL 😂 I had thought the G8x was the perfect middle finger to a certain crowd of dudes, this is looking like a beer swilling double finger salute, have mercy

wesleyan92 · 10-24-2024, 10:22 PM

This color looks SICK!

Has Joe ever given any BMW product moderate constructive criticism? This car might end up being great, but his opinion isn’t one I take very seriously.

Yes, the LCI of this car will be faster, lighter, and have better battery tech. Sign me up for that one.

Yes, he has bash the Xm and has talked negatives on other BMW non M products. I think he is fair.

I disagree. But so far, his view on this car is on par with other reviewers

AP · 10-25-2024, 08:08 AM

He didn’t give the i5m60 a glowing review with respect to the interior so surprised that wasn’t mentioned this time

Looks like bmw have done a good job given the regulatory restraints imposed on them

The Carbon Black Touring at 1:21 looks hot AF
