Picked up my Nardo Grey F90 M5!

Hello again,

Picked up my M5 2 weeks ago. I've been looking to get Nardo Grey and couldn't find anything and I hate ordering cars because I have zero patience in waiting. I was lucky enough to find this dealership that posted the car. I made a few phone calls and had the car delivered the next day. I still have my 2018 E63S which will stay in the garage but its nice to have best of both worlds I guess.

Of course the M5 has to match the GT3

I have a lot of mods planned for the M5 starting with a tune because its very slow compared to my Weistec Tuned E63s lol.

Art are you following me? LOL... there is no reason to have both cars my friend. You will see that the F90 is the better overall car. Albeit you did do your E63S up pretty bad ass like my Edition 1- if not even better.

Congrats on the Nardo.

LMAO. I was thinking this the other day and telling my self that Vic is going to say this once I post the car. Haha. I love the E63s bro and wont leave at all. Here's a pic of it and I still have to install a diffuser on it.

Once you have some real seat time in the F90 would love your comparison notes between the two cars...

Definitely! I put around 500 miles on it so far. Will come back here or post a new thread on a comparison after I get it tuned and all modded

Vic is the man so check out his thread. I saw and read this already but I will give my opinion after I drive the M5 for a while.

Haha I did see it and loved it! Looking for further validation and to see if he generally agrees with your take. My car hunt makes no sense... prepping to order either an M5 or a new 992. I'm well aware of the fact they are different animals entirely but the two most tempting daily driveables right now that I can put my kids in for school drop off... IMO. Pretty sure I've ruled out the E63s at this point.

You kids will demand emancipation after their teeth fall out from the bone crushing ride in the E63S

I joke a bit but but that car was rough. I still cringe when I get in my friends 2018 and we hit a bad spot in the road. But there are some brutal things I do like; the initial launches with that lift in tq is aggressive and the exhaust note never gets old.

The M is better for me and I try to say that with all honesty on the M forum. Hell Ive already told my friends on the E63S side.

I did notice this Vic but when my car was not lowered, it was just like the M5. Once I lower the M5, I will do a comparison of that also.

Air Body Control on the E63S is too taut; but it does yield less body roll on a 4500 lb car. Also the OEM series tires on the F90 are 35 which endure more than the 30 series on the E.

I have a feeling you will like the M more.
