cargo is deep but not wide as F90

Carbon fibre roof is not a standard, has to come with carbon exterior package

Just as I suspected - looks absolutely gorgeous in IOMG.
Did you feel that the interior quality was better or equal to the regular 5er?

I wonder how interior quality would be better when there are just few differences: New seats, almost exact same steering wheel as i5 M60 (+M mode buttons), Drive controller and more red buttons. Oh and door sills.

regular interior is quite nice, but felt more cheap than previous one.

Boy, that trunk is small. Golf clubs won't fit. I had to put my golf bag on the diagonal and remove my driver to get them in the F90. Those humps will make it even more difficult to fit.

Do rear seats fold?

It's not better.....it's the exact same. It's the same steering wheel......the upper door parts and buttons are cheap. The backs of the seats are the same......the Bowers system is the same....the seat controls are the same.

Yes, the new 5 series is packed with soft and cheap plastics everywhere.

Front door cards look like it's from Kia or something

Extended leather is standard. There will be “full merino leather” later, but only in two bi-color options.

Start of production is March of 2025.

You can get full leather in one of two interiors:

Two-tone black and purple, or
Two tone taupe and blue.

So they made it bigger and heavier with less passenger and cargo volume. And it’s a cartoonish design. Besides that I’m sure it’s great
