This car is so good that I can honestly say without worrying what you have driven before - that you will absolutely love this car.

It is by far the best all round car I have ever owned. It's quick, handles unbelievably well for it's size and what it is, is a full on luxury car and looks great to boot.

It's the perfect all rounder - the Ultimate Driving Machine.

Been in M5's forever it seems so looking forward to the F90 and this new generation. I've driven the Non-Comp F90 but not the Comp.

I may be in the minority but I love stiffer suspensions and less body roll so the M5 Comp will work well for me and hopefully the exhaust is a keeper.

Lol - I was just discussing this with my buddy who is also into racing - but we feel the same way...I prefer the stiffer suspension to the comfort. That said - the comfort settings are no different from the non-CP from what I could tell...you care definitely going to love this car - post it up once you get it!

I feel that the "regular" M5 is already stiff on our shitty roads (Belgium ...) , and I wouldn't want my daily to be even harsher.

With this being said , you have an amazing car !
In comfort mode I have no issues with the roads here in Michigan, which probably are not much better. I've been using Sport mode quite a bit as well, and it is quite livable. In comfort mode, it is probably about as stiff as you can make it while being comfortable at the same time. Like you, I was somewhat hesitant about the stiffer suspension, but in the end, I'm very happy with it.

Incredible machine, probably the best car ever (realistic) money will get you. Just enjoyed a blast a couple of days back on unrestricted roads in Munick with an M5.

What a machine man! Hope you enjoy every single moment with it Go all the way with it!

Thank-you and I agree. This is the best all round car I have ever owned. I get happy each time I get into it lol. I feel very fortunate.

And it will be fully tested very soon...

Inside the car - it is still dampened. You need the windows done to appreciate the sound - but it is loud enough and sounds pretty good.

I have my sound clip videos at the beginning of the threads...but here they are again...

Damn, sounds pretty good!!

I'm excited at the prospect of not having to replace the exhaust; that alone may be worth the price of having selected the M5 Comp. Even better, we can always modify the exhaust slightly for more aggressive tone.

I think you will like it - and as you state - it can be enhanced further. The overall sound of the car - even in non-sport+ mode is rally nice. It has a solid hum to it even when driving slow.

Thanks for the feedback brother!

I'm excited to get the car in my hands and getting this build going.
