Approaching 12k miles, I am getting the itch. So far RS6 Avant has me most interested. What are some of the others thinking as the next replacement?

[M5 dude now]

Damn, i hate that itch, once it starts its hard to stop. I was looking at the RS6 Avant as well or RS7

Looking at the way BMW has been going lately, with both interior and exterior design and how meh the M cars feel now, probably not a BMW. Maybe a P car.

I'm already bored with the car after 2 months, that slushbox transmission kills all the joy from driving the car. I'll probably keep it for a year or two until my lease is up and look for a nice 991.2 Turbo S.

Looking to downgrade, huh? My M5C does not feel meh. Interior is clearly one of the best I have seen, extremely comfortable, and the whole car just looks bad ass. Transmission is f'in great (IMO) and car is a complete blast to drive. I still handwash mine every weekend, 6 months in, and I enjoy doing it. Kinda a time to admire it.

You know, maybe the problem is you. Maybe you aren't driving it right. lol.

Welp, considering you're calling the 991.2 TTS a downgrade compared to a M5C and that you're liking the ZF, I'm sure your driving capabilities far surpass mine.

[H33R]

Love the M5 at the moment, but always thinking about what next. RS6 and Porsche Panamera Turbo are whole of the current list.

[Aronis]

um, F91?


What do I win?

I kid. Not a downgrade but really totally different car. M5 is a 4 door super car. P car Turbo is not that. So apples to oranges. As for the ZF I found the prior DCT a PITA so yes I like it. Sorry u have a bad experience. I’m sure many will be happy to take over your lease.

I had my 2018 M5 at the same time as my 2019 TTS. Both are awesome. Planned on keeping both. But after 18 months the M5 stayed in the garage too much and my wife’s X3MC does the four door duties so I just sold the M5. I am still very impressed with the M5. If the TTS didn’t exist I would still own it and probably would replace it in a year with the M5C. I really like that platform.

What did you guys drive BEFORE the F90? I think that's a big deciding factor if the car is amazing to you or just meh. I drove a new M3 for 3 years and now have the M5 and it's just sort of meh to me because I was spoiled by the M3 for so long. Thinking P car next as well but would have to be a 911.

A 2020 M5C--on my way to pick it up now.

[mr_djurgarden]

How about BMW M8 G15 ?

[devondragon]

The M8 is absolutely on my radar. I came to the F90 from an F13 M6 and I love the coupe styling.

I can't understand anyone who calls this car "meh". My last two cars were the M6 (with tuning and exhaust), and a E92 M3 couple. I've driven, and enjoyed the heck out of various Lambos, Ferarris, McLarens, Porsches, Vipers, etc.. Is the M5 the same as a 570S or a Huracan? No, but it isn't Meh either. Having a super comfy DD car that will happily run < 3s 0-60s is amazing. The AWD actually getting the power down makes this car quicker off the line and more fun to drive than my F13 or E92. I haven't had the opportunity to track it at the same tracks as those previous cars (moved) but I have no doubt it would be faster around due to higher power and AWD.

[Greer]

I love this car, going to keep it until the eventual all-electric M5 is introduced.

[FloridaM5]

I'm only 3500 miles in, but I normally get the itch around 15k as well. rs6 avant looks interesting to me.

[Deda]

i just got offer for my M5...if i sell the beast,i will look in X5M direction.

[ZZZZMD1991]

Ferrari 812 GTS will scratch your itch......

[Neptune7]

Waiting for the M8 GC Comp. Nothing else interests me, Audi included, though the Taycan is intriguing too.

Me too.

Just changed M3 Comp to M5 and albeit I really enjoyed the M3, the M5 is a different class.

Space, comfort, speed, reliability - it's the best all round saloon I could ever want.

F90 is my 4 door so I would replace it with a 4 door and right now the only car as good as an F90 is an..... F mother fucking 90. So maybe ill get a 2020 or 2021 depending on the minute changes. I love my First Edition so its a keeper for now.

[dalixz25]

Maybe a 992
