Not impressed with this Guy, M5's do GO all this "wow wow crap".
Proves he ain't used to real power. IMO

The only thing I got from this video is that I really want those ceramic controls in my life!!! They would go great with my piano black trim! Where can I get them from? lol

As Joe stated, this was only a first drive, and not intended to be a full review. I thought it did a good job of conveying his unbridled enthusiasm.

He’s driven and tested the regular F90 M5 on the street and track before.. How is he so excited!? The M5 and M5C feel almost exactly the same as far as power!? Also how does he not know how to use launch control on the M5C since it’s the exact same on the M5!?

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the video. It was like he totally forgot about the regular M5. He couldn't have reviewed so many cars since the original review. I rent different cars almost every week and I can still remember them.
