Video review of the G90 M5

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Hey guys

I haven't done one of these in a while but I've put my weekend with the G90 M5 into a video. I'm not going very deep into facts, stats, and figures (or not at all). Instead I tried to make a fun video combined with driving impressions. If somebody prefers the literary approach, the article's here: https://g90.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2156087

Hope you guys enjoy it.

Great job with video!

Excellent video...great job!

I suggest you add a link to the above video to your original thread (maybe, at the top) - readers of that thread would benefit from this overview after your detailed review...

Excellent review. More of these “real” reviews please. A true car guy giving you car guy viewpoints that actually matter.

Thank you!

Great job. Got my blood pressure sorted!

I may pick one up. Looks like a good street package for the US

I'm glad to see a review from an actual owner with real-world experience driving the G90 M5. Other new owners, please report your feedback and how you like the car. thx.

KASM3 · 01-08-2025, 03:35 PM

Fantastic review and I completely agree. I find something amazing about it the more I drive it. The overtake speed never gets old!

Woops, I must have been high. I think I wanted to write my WEEKEND WITH THE and I must have mixed it up. I apologise to all who thought it was my car. I managed to state it correctly in the linked article but apparently after making the video I subconsciously wanted it to be mine. Sorry.

M5s don’t have gas flaps on front fenders right?

This has got to be the best video for the car to date. I love your style! Also love seeing a nicely used dirty snowy car with winter tires in all it's glory. Great content!
