Very hot. At the pricing point may as well include CP and MPE and solve any exhaust worries.

need to get rid of that dissenter in your signature
No way, I'll always be pissed off they didn't design an all new and bespoke engine. There is only 1 circumstance in which I will be glad they used another S63xx engine, and I can't tell you what that reason is yet because I don't know yet if it will work for what I hope to with the F90 engine one day.

M550 looks better,

Not impressed. I've not been a huge fan of the F10 either. This just looks generic with some bits bolted on. For some reason the M550 looks sportier and refined.

To much M2/M3 mixed in. I've always felt that the 5 series was a precursor of what's to come in the next generation 3series/M3....really if this is the language BMW will have for the next generation 3 series and M3/4s its underwhelming.

RS6 is far more stunning

I'm underwhelmed. Looks like I'll be moving on to a Panamera 4s.

Interior looks quite disappointing. Steering wheel buttons looking like a kia. Exterior some how reminds me of subarus. definitely looks less upscale

I like it overall. I think with the right color combo and options it would be the best daily driver for the money. It's funny how critical and judgmental everyone is with never seeing it in person. Pics and videos rarely do justice to cars. I see the M5 as a daily, luxury car with insane performance. For those who say it's "underwhelming" or "boring", you may want to look in a different segment for a car, i.e. M4's, C63's, GTR's etc. To me, it fits the bill for the purpose of an M5.

Doesn't look that aggressive to me. Rear fenders and body styling seem fairly passive and similar to other sedans, looks very Toyota/Honda to me. Also looks like it has a lift. I've always loved the aggressive look of bmws when they appear hunched down over their wheels. This one looks more propped up on the wheels instead.

How do you determine a car to be a failure by leaked photos prior to the announcement? Lol

:

BMW styling has always been evolutionary not revolutionary
