Thanks for watching!
17:59 best moment in the video 😍👌
Agreed
We all approve.
That is a very classic M car~ I couldn't see which M car it was~
@@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan Maybe a 1980s M6
Wut, that's crazy
The perfect daily driver! 600+hp, AWD, stunning looks, nice interior, what else could you want?
Reliability
A lower price
A misprinted price on the sticker 😂
@@ljc1821 is there proven reliability issues with the F90 M5?
@@myemailiscool with bmw as a whole. Just you wait 😊 the numbers never lie.
I will own this car one day. I must. 😂

Some say you will... the media will never say it but I said it...It's never been said before

@@alh06 did you hear that?🛩
I will own this...speak into existence
Perfect timing. Been obsessing over these lately 😂

Sameeeee
Kk
Yeah
We're broke, so we settle for KZhead POV lmao
5:03 FREE replay button, I can do that all day.
@TheTropher How does it feel to be hands down the best car reviewer on KZhead!! I love watching your videos and you do an amazing job on explaining your thoughts on every car!
I've been waiting on a video from you on this beast.love the refresh on this M5 Competition pack.awesome video by the way 👍
That growl from the exhaust is unbelievable
Great looking front end. Please go back to this, BMW!
Didn’t know they sounded so good inside. Performance is insane. That E24 was REALLY cool :)
It's all fake sound :(
@@BeanyB0b naah
@@kamqorma4562 yaah
@@BeanyB0b Its a little bit of fake sound, not all of it is fake though, my dad owns this car and I did a test outside and I can tell you its insanely loud from the outside even with the OPF filters
@@CptNeogene yes my baby sister owns this one too, and she says it's loud af. Nobody in the kindergarden can sleep when she starts it
The 5 series is the only BMW that has truly impressed me. Nice video!
The new M5 CS is even more hard core and the reviewers love that car
Shoutout Michigan-5 highway, great to see Bimmer’s in my hometown. Also that projected HUD is INSANE!!!
Always loved the M5, HOWEVER after watching this video, it's even better!
Man I wish I knew your channel earlier. I love your content. Such an amazing video.
I was going to watch you off-road the Bronco again but that was out the window when I saw that you uploaded
Great video bro! Keep up the good work!
Absolutely love the new headlights and taillights on the LCI model.
How the Topher gets out of vehicles without scuffing or damaging the door sills / door panels is how everyone should get in and out of cars
I absolutely love that color. Wow.
Love the car, I hope to own this car in the future and I would do a complete build for 800+ hp with an amazing wrap. I’m truly excited and also your videos are amazing.
Advice on how I could learn to build mine
same
Love that blue!
Drove this car today and I can say I'm very happy to report back that it's a roller coaster.
Do you own one?
This is so cool. Good job BMW
That’s the most beautiful shade of blue
I would love to own one of these and/or an E92 M3 one day
Hi Topher! Thanks for the review! How does the BMW's lane centering tech compare with Hyundai/KIA's Highway Driving Assist? Thanks!
That is the best M5 I've seen😎
Great review!
the good thing is, if you buy the Car you can expect over 650 HP from the Motor, is a gift to the customer from BMW.
At that price there’s no excuse not to give that much power
i absolutely loved that "ooh, is that a new Raptor?" at 15:07
Night drive POV of this M5 would be cool!
Hey man, question. Does this car have the stock competition exhaust or the M Perf exhaust? It sounds amazing.
I love the AMG 63S and the RS6. It's just that I love the M5 more! It's the ultimate supersedan.
You're account is quite new.
8:49 "It's an exercise in self control" 1 second later: *floors it*
I miss the old V10 M5, but this one’s pretty great too
But it’s so unreliable you wouldn’t wanna own one
@@Mustafakhan-qg6nv exactly only good thing about it was it’s engine and even then it’s not great it judt sounds good pretty good performance. It has a horrible smg gearbox I think it’s called horrible technology and an okay interior🤷♂️
@@ahmadkhorma4996 yep
@@ahmadkhorma4996 I would take an rs6 c6 with that Audi V10 anyday!
@@Mustafakhan-qg6nv thats why im aiming to buy a f10 m5
I love that M5!
Excellent review 👌
هموطن سلام
Just realized he's driving around my old stomping ground. Good ol' Michigan
This car is perfect, personally thiink its the best M car rn
Crazy to see the blinkers being used in a BMW
Such amazing video
I think the B&W sounds beautiful!!! Especially in the x5 or m8!!
Love this
5:07 🤌🏽 love
Good video man
Beautiful car
One Day I’m getting one of those BMW
This thing is beautiful. Just bought a 530. I now want an M5!
Dream car.
nice car i need one
It's my dream car 🤩
This F90 is my favourite looking 5 series~~
@TheTopher.. thanks for the feedback. i was looking at a few cars, maybe u can help. which car is best overall, the least issues (reliability) and will last the longest. looking for a fast, comfortable daily: X3M comp, used M5 comp, M340i xdrive, or the new M3 AWD. Since u had the chance to drive them, any thoughts or experiences? I appreciate it!
You recently test drove the all new BMW M3. How does it compare to the M5? If price wasn't an issue, which car would you have?
That’s my dream car!
Would love if you could review the 2012-2015 Audi RS5 as well - the last of the screaming V8s!
I dreamt about this car once, not knowing it does exist in the real world🌚. I'm definitely gonna buy it one day.
Can you try and do a e63s back to back w/ the m5 comp plz
What is a more enjoyagble right @theTopher This BMW M5 Comp or The Corvette Stingray?
When I had a bmw it’s “happy spot” was 80 and it was just comfortable and sipped gas and when you look down at the Speedometer it’s like oh! I’m going 80
That's the speed limit on the highway in my country hehe
It’s funny how accurate that is. I’ve got a 14’ Mazda 3 and an 06’ 330xi. The Mazda’s fuel economy drops hard after about 65-70 MPH. The 330xi at 80 feels like it’s ready to pounce. Even spinning at almost 3k rpms at 80 in the 330xi (manual), I still can easily get 30 mpg. Both great cars, but the hum of the I6 and the steering in the 330xi always makes me think about it when I’m in the Mazda.
@@TheDatpussy I believe he’s talking about 80 miles per hour not kmph
@@Mustafakhan-qg6nv I know.....which is why I said my country, not my state.... 80=130mkh
When I got my first BMW, X6 5.0, first five months I got tickets
Review M5 CS also please!
I used to work there in Florham Park where you filmed this,lol
quality so nice. but will it be reliable???
Can’t wait to get mines 😭
ahh what a beauty
When are you gonna get the IS500 f sport performance
The BMW M5 is truly a legend in the world of cars, I hope BMW doesn't ruin it like the rest of its products in the coming years.
Best sedan ever
wow its pretty crazy how much louder our US spec M5 is than the european one.badass car
No extra particulate filters on exhaust
8:20 i felt this in my e46
What a video if Topher linked with WettM3 (M3E92) and friends lol for some spirited west coast driving 👀
"There's a lot goin on with the tech." Sincerely, Audi MMI
hey weird question what watch did u wear in this video?
💯
I would like that car.
New editing format?
Nice!
The price is truly unbelievable
Maybe its because I don't religiously follow BMW but that just doesn't look like $103k. Sounds amazing though.
Yeah if you don’t follow bmw that much then all of them start looking the same, this one looks no different than a base 4 door sedan they make
@@moa-wg3bo ye I like how they changed the m3 and m4 grilles to make them more unique and stand out but they could have done it a bit better imo
Wha your fav bmw
What's that flashing next to the hazard lights button?
Is it fitted with the titanium exhaust?
so what would you choose between the M5 com or the M340i ?
Try the m5 cs 💓😍😍
Put the steering in sport mode and you get a better feel.
NICE
I’m a Mercedes fanboy but I’m having a really tough time to pick between this and the e63
Nice Video. Just one question, does the radio have AM/FM or no.
It does
Ok, thanks, Just Confused if it doesn't.
You should take the suv maybech offroadig
👌👌🔥
Is it using run-flat tires?
Anybody got 100k lying around I can borrow?!😂😂 that blue paint is absolutely gorgeous
what's the purple lights in the display?
It looks amazing but if you guys in the USA don't have the autobahn where are you guys going to use the 617 hp?
the road
We use it, just don’t get caught.
I wish to have that car
Only way I'd get that car is if I moved to Germany. Even with a radar detector, I don't think I could comfortably open that up on the regular.
Tropher, does this drive better than the brz in terms of driving dynamics and feel?
cool
The old light blue NJ plate would look better!
m5 the best
