I Drag Raced a BMW M5 E39 v Alpinas!

Who’s ready for an almighty BMW v Alpina drag race?!
We’ve got Mat lining up in an Alpina B10 S, and he’s about to go head-to-head against an E39 M5 and a regular Alpina B10!
So let’s see how these legendary saloons compare. Starting with the B10 S, it’s powered by a 4.8-litre naturally-aspirated V8 that can produce 380hp and 510Nm of torque. It powers the rear wheels only, and it tips the scales at 1,690kg.
As you’d expect, the regular B10 arrives with very similar stats. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4.6-litre naturally-aspirated V8, which can put down 340hp and 470Nm. It also powers the rear wheels, but it’s also slightly lighter, coming in at 1,660kg.
Then finally we have the E39 M5. It’s equipped with a 4.9-litre naturally-aspirated V8 which can produce 400hp and 500Nm. So it’s the most powerful car here, but it has two disadvantages. Not only is it the heaviest car here, at 1,795kg, but it’s also the only manual car in this line-up!
Will the lack of an automatic gearbox prove to be its downfall? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
Thanks to @BenCollinsDrives for joining us!
Thanks to everyone for lending us their cars:

  • Super disappointed that the M5 driver did not release the DSC system. You can clearly see the M5 drop / fall on its face with every gearshift as a DSC system muted the throttle due to wet pavement. As an e39 M5 owner, my M5 records a 1/4 mile of 13.2 @ 108mph - STOCK. Love the video of older sports sedan getting live - ty. Do more of these, but make sure drivers know the quirks of these cars.

    • E39 have specific front axle geometry and its prone to wear lower control arms joints, which leeds to vibration while braking. Joints doesnt have to be loose and noisy, they are just worn and can rotate with even slight force. Great steering, but it has some disadvantages.

All suspension bushings in the control and thrust arms need to be replaced front and rear too as replacing some only can exacerbate issues in worn bushes and bearings. I also assume the recirculating ball steering boxes in the V8 cars makes an already sloppy feeling front set up feel just that much worse.

  • The v8s is more expensive not just because of the extra cc and hp but because it's a very limited edition car being one of only 88 built so it's a collectors item if you're into Alpinas. The holy grail for alpina collectors is the B6 3.5S which was an E30 m3 body with an alpina 3.5 straight 6 shoved in it mated to a manual gearbox only 62 of those were built if I remember correctly. B10 V8S is a gem.

Even though the 540i is the lowest power it is the most fun to drive. But it made me a bit sad that TC was left on, I know from experience it is so aggressive in that gen of car. Ben mentioned that even during the rolling race his gear changes had hesitation, I'd be willing to put my money on it flicker the TC on. As soon as it does that it just kills anything that was happening.

    • Curious, why you did not turn off the DSC on the M5? (button on the dash next to the seat heater) Very aggressive traction control system. 🍻

      @paulsachs9983@paulsachs9983 Жыл бұрын
    • ​@@paulsachs9983 the DSC was unusually unobtrusive on that one - I tried with it off on a practise run and it was the worst of all worlds. To overcome the dead spot in the engine's power curve I needed more throttle than normal to launch the car and was getting wheelsman, followed by no power. With DSC on I was able to get away with using more throttle and keeping the rpm in a better power band but the engine was still struggling a bit.. It was unusual I agree

  • This is the manliest car video I’ve seen in recent times. It brought a tear to my eye as I explained the difference between E39 M5’s and Alpina’s. More bonus points for the gearbox dying halfway through. Mine does that too: just turn it off and back on again and it’s happy as Larry 😅

  • I’m not convinced that the M5 here is necessarily a good enough example here, perhaps the exhaust system isn’t doing it any favours? And it probably needs the clutch delay valve taking out maybe some other associated work?
