I get this thing is fast but I mean 0-60 in 2.7 vs 2.5 or 2.3, etc. You can’t really physically tell you are going that much quicker to 60 so I’d guess I’d rather look good getting to 60 in 2.8 sec vs looking just ok and doing it in 2.4 or so. I’m sure the looks will grow on us eventually but will we consider it to be as beautiful as the previous generations ? I don’t think so.
You don't really speak for everyone when you say ''we'', I consider the F90 overrated because y'all ruined the car. 'Pinnacle M5'' is it the F90 or E60? Most beautiful M5 to me is the F10. You can downvote this all you want, but I'm tired of people using the term ''we''. You gotta understand, not everyone considers the F90 beautiful. Remember the backlash F90 received back in 2017? Have we forgotten all that? We moved on from that?

And what a horrible trend it is. At this pace, luxury cars are gonna be 6000lbs soon.

I honestly think its the selling point of the front. It is way better than most grilles BMW is producing currently.

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

My m5cs just got much more valuable!!! 😎. I’m sure it will be a great car, but I can’t get over the interior, the loss of the individual driver gauge cluster and infotainment display is a tough one for me.

I still prefer my F82 m4 setup…nothing replaces an anolog tach.

Interior is pretty disappointing. Really underwhelming for a 120k car that got released today. When you’re paying 120k for a car that just came out I expect it to look a bit nicer than a g80 m3 today. Exterior is cool though

Doesn’t invoke any emotions from me. Feels like a bland, generic bmw design. I’d have to see it in person but so far, if it didn’t exist, it wouldn’t make any diffence.

I don’t hate it, it actually looks pretty good until you see the rear end and it just has way too much going on.

The rear diffuser looks and rear reflector areas just absolutely ruin the looks of a decently designed new gen BMW. 😭

Finally, why no M5 competition??!!!?
It truly is sad that all interiors are the exact same cookie-cutter BS.

Loses the specialness of being in BMW’s elite cars. 😔

My guess is the rear bumper is all 1 piece and the “diffusers” are just painted black, otherwise, probably would suck to replace.

I like it. Probably will never own one but I like it. People hated the F90 when it replaced the F10

Geez... been a hater of the new 5 since the day I saw it but this actually looks pretty good to me. That front bumper with the swoop down in front of the wheel is pretty great.

just wish it was a bit more compact/light weight but really not bad.

Another ugly, disjointed design from BMW. Only few classic designed BMWs remain now, 3, 8 and X5.
