The exhaust sounds like this:


And sounds better after some miles to coat the fiberglass packing.

Exactly. I saw the m5 comp at m track days. I was unimpressed with the stance and the wheels. Very lacking IMHO
I think they really miss the boat on the styling and stance. too conservative, wheels are blah. hope they fix that on the LCI. And I don't want to "hate the new model" but the F10 looks better imo.

I have the sports Exhaust on m5 STD M5 with CCB, i think that is more than enough, harder suspension here at least will not be welcome.

Dig the car overall but agree about the wheels looking weak. Funny how so many people are upset about the non-aggressive styling. That's how M5s have been and really all M models. The M2, 3 & 4 are the only ones I think are vastly different. Even as an enthusiast I've been tricked by a non-M with minor upgrades. Want aggressive? Get an M3 or Urus

Correct, but its so tame I decided NOT to get my wife one. I will keep my F80 and she keep her MB GLC. It's unfortunate, but I can't justify twice the payment for a car that even a trained eye cant easily differentiate from a base model.

Only once have I seen an F90 "in the wild," and it was behind me and i doubted myself until it pulled up next to me.

The rear section is different but way better compared to the f80. Interior, power and looks. I came from the f80 and lacked a lot of things that the f90 has. F90 is not 100% perfect but leaps and bounds over the F80. But all personal preference.

I also sold my F80 CP, not a patch on the F90 M5 in any way.

lol of course it wont be 37k. im talking about a fully loaded f90 in canadian dollars. out the door its going to be like 150k cad. for the statement to be true it would be more like 4 or 5 years for that sort of depreciation (based on previous generations of m5). regardless i hope there wasnt any f90 m5 owners taking offence to that little joke. its a fantastic car, drove it the other day but i would never ever pay what it costs new.

I have to tell you I Paid £80,000:00, for a car booked at £102000:00 here in the uk, who would pay book price knowing the heavy losses these cars take in a few months.

Absolutely I guess many people can't how recall how the older M5's look like compare to their series sibling. The M5 is a gentlemen's sport sedan anyway.

Leaps and bounds in what way? I have driven the F90 and it did not appear better than the F80. It appears more luxurious, but that does not equal "better" in my book. Just more luxurious.

All these whiny bitches on here complaining about the lack of aggressiveness. The M5 has ALWAYS been a wolf in sheep's clothing, that's the whole point. This thing is meant to be subtle, not shout "look at me" every time one passes by. Respect tradition.

Driven and having the car is two different things. Having a 10 minute drive you can't find out what the car can do. I'm coming from a 700whp f80 to the m5. Two different and to me it's better
