One of the reasons this car has completely hit the top of my list is the fact that it sorta makes me feel the way BMW used to where they are competing with exotic manufacturers. Remember that euro E36 ad comparing the hp per litre to Ferrari? This car feels like that. BMW punching way above its weight and dominating like it used to generations ago.
In person this car has an amazing presence. In true M5 fashion it is clearly special to those in the know but relatively stealthy otherwise. My E39 left a huge impression on me. Probably shouldn't have sold. I'd happily buy an M5CS over any of its equally priced competitors without hesitation. There is nothing else at this price range that I can logically see myself driving every day.

I've owned 5 (still have 3) and have had pretty good luck with them. Obviously not perfect but certainly nothing that has scared me away from the brand. I also have friends who own them so I'd probably hear about their horror stories if they had any.
I generally prefer real world experience and direct evidence vs anecdotal experiences posted by internet strangers. |

I had the 570s for a little while and had so many electrical problems. I will be going for either the Hurcan sto or 812 Ferrari. I am sure Mclaren will fix this since they are one of the best , it's just Ferrari and Lamborghini have been making cars longer. |

When you say get 675LT, because it's a bargain, the cheapest one in Australia is over half a mill and certainly not a bargain

I'm not saying it's a bad car by any means….but I don't feel it looks amazing. The colors seem boring. Then add in the $25k markup or whatever some dealers are charging? Hard pass.
For that much, I'd buy something more exotic. Just my 0.02.

Lol when you buy something more exotic you will still have to pay a premium. Everything exotic is selling for over MSRP. If you can get an allocation.

Oh no doubt.....the M5CS just isn't something I'd pay a premium for (meaning over MSRP).
