The biggest takeaway for me with this is how dated the F90 looks. The more I drive the G90 the more I like it. I previously owned an F90 and F10.

Eh, I look at that front pic of the video and it's both telling and depressing how gigantic the the G90 looks compare to the two previous gens. It'd be like putting an F90 next to two previous gen M3s ... looks like it belongs to a different model line.

They're all fast enough in a straight line. I suspect the G90 will suffer a lot pushed to aggressive braking and handling loads. G force pressure will not be its friend, you can only mask so much with coding.

It is also obvious that the delta in performance between the F90 and the G90 is non-existant, and therein lies the quandry.

After 6 M5’s dating back to my first M5 which was an E39, I will not be migrating to the G90, at least not this iteration. I will happily stay in my current 22’ M5C as there is nothing compelling me to make the move.

For those that will undoubtedly question my comments … yes, I can afford a G90 and yes, I have extensively driven it as my brother owns one.

And yes, this is just my opinion and not an indictment on this car. I’m sure many value the PHEV and new styling etc and I respect that.

A G90 with performance that is measurably better than it’s predecessor could tilt my mind in another direction. Unfortunately, this is not that car.

Have you driven the car? Like really driven it especially after being broken in, warmed up tires?

Again brakes way better than a f90… don’t judge this car on how yanni drove it… 🤦‍♂️

I really want to only hear from current g90 owners who moved from f90 to share their experiences… honestly I’m curios, because I did and I can tell you categorically it’s a way better car, it’s just not the kind of change we saw going form f10 to f90 because for us to experience that we would need a major technological advance in engineering which is not there yet.

Agreed. Both are cool cars though, and looking forward to seeing where the tuning world takes the g90.
