I wouldn't be so sure. Here you have the M3 CS G80 stock

I know you don't get the arguments. I was trying to explain that the M5 CS is faster. You are acting like a child, or you are. In 2025, the kind of performance that the m5 g90 has will not impress anyone. In a European stock M8 you can easily go below 11s e.g. 10.5-10.8s.
I would expect better performance from BMW in a flagship M 4 door limousine. Shame

Everyone gets your "arguments". What I don't quite understand is your daily need to come into the G90 forums and literally just troll owners over and over again, shitting on their purchase and telling them they're either delusional if they like their car or they are children.

I dunno man, I don't like every vehicle in BMW's lineup but I sure as hell don't feel the desire to roam into their forums and shit on them. To ME *that* is childish.

But hey, whatever makes you feel good bro.

Performance seems to impress quite a few new G90 owners here who also owned the F90

I don't get how people selectively throw out reviews from actual owners especially those that have experience with the prior gens. To me those are THE reviews that will carry the most weight. Not some random internet keyboard hero that read a few headlines about the car.

I'm trying to imagine how miserable I would have to be to spend my time on the M8 forum just to annoy people: « The M8s are too slow, too ugly, so outdated that the coupe model has been discontinued. A 10 year old Porsche can overtake it backwards. The designers of this aberration should be fired and everyone should be ashamed blah blah blah, I’m so frustrated and useless! »

I agree

You can go to my topic regarding my 7 series and criticize it for being ugly or for being too high quality inside.

I for one enjoyed your performance tests and videos, but I think you miss the point. BMW M is fighting with the team they have, not the team they wanted.

Trust me, BMW did not want to make a heavy 2,5 tonnes M5. But it is what we got in the end of the day. Is the G90 flawless and an improvement over the F90?

In some ways yes, in others no. Is it a good car? Definitely. I am buying it but keeping my M5 F90.

I saw them, and thought it better to keep my thoughts to myself. This whole G90 car is just not for me.

Never thought this generation shift would be more emotional than the G8x design debate.

Though I suppose objectively, the G8x performs better than the F8x and the rumored next gen quad motor M3 seems it’s going to be another performance leap.

It does lean into what someone else mentioned that the super saloon is shifting focus a bit from just all performance to other places.

I was never opposed to the car since it’s leaks and would like to see the S68 in a less detuned fashion and some more build options by MY27 and I’ll gladly get one.

Lots of people loved the sleeper look of an f90.. I love where Bmw is going with this g90. You don’t need an enthusiast to recognize it’s a special car.
