As Alex stated, No he doesn't mention it but he does go on to say that the front end looks much better in person than it does in pictures. Unfortunately, can't quite agree with Daniel on that statement.

I actually really liked how the G80 looked...until this M5CS came out. Man this car just blows it out the water, soooo good.

Daniel didn’t quite like the M5 CS color combo (frozen green with gold bronze bits) and would prefer gray (frozen Brands Hatch gray is available) instead. I kind of agree.

Yep! Would have to agree as well. He also stated that the exhaust note wasn't to loud, and then proceeded to run to the M3 and M4 to compare the exhaust notes ( gegen check). Welcome to 2021!

Der Sound ist dem OPF zum Opfer gefallen. Da kann man nicht viel tun

Adris · 01-28-2021, 05:42 PM

looks amazing, but M5cs sounds terrible, same as mine M8 euro version, exhaust sound is a joke.

Thanks for posting the vid.

Youtube's auto-translate feature is hilarious.

Of course he'd only say positive things.

Didn't watch the vid, but I bet he said, "halt Geschmackssache, ne" like they all do

He's also pretty cool guy who takes the time to talk the day before race day.

AHall · 01-28-2021, 07:09 PM

Why is he climbing out of the car that way? Are the seat bolster that high?

Game · 01-28-2021, 08:17 PM

Love what Daniel does with ABT. His ABT RS6 and RS7 are insane.

XsltAnalyst · 01-28-2021, 09:19 PM

Lol looked like they were revving in comfort mode and complaining that it was quiet. You could clearly see only 2 out of 4 tailpipes were open

Exhaust sound of S63 engine will never sound great since it has cross bank exhaust manifolds. N63 engine sounds a lot better in 850i/550i

I heard 4L V8 is in the works to replace 4.4 across the board so they might fix the sound in the future with the new engine

THEROK · 01-28-2021, 09:21 PM

I love Abt Audis. They design some siq sht.

M5s are way too slab sided. All of them. Nyet.

NotSooFast · 01-28-2021, 09:38 PM

On a related note, I'm glad BMW did not mess with the front end.

They knew this car will make it to few car shows & auctions about 20 years from now and wanted no part of their grille-ism to go with it.

Gives me hope!

Greer · 01-28-2021, 11:34 PM

I don't speak a word of German and I enjoyed the entire video.

Same, I actually watched the whole thing...

Guess a good visual walkaround is enough to captivate an English audience

AFAIK "M Brands Hatch Grau metallic" is the default color... at least in the configurator in Switzerland.
