Few highlights from the review

- First and only M5 in Moldova so far, and already sold
- Costs 123,000 EUR
- Stepping on the gas, first thing I thought is “Hold on a sec, this car is trying to kill me”
- He says the E60 was much criticized by BMW faithful for not being a true M-car due to the V10
- But many were quick to criticize that this new M5 is turbocharged, though they have no reason because turbo lag is never felt
- His favorite part is the gearbox, completely different than the gearbox in the old M5 which he hated since after only a few kilometers he was in pain due to the brutal shifts
- Feels glued to the road
- People see it and think it is a 5-series with a body kit, and are trying to race him. Few of them realize it’s a real M5 since it’s pretty understated
- The interior he says is pretty similar to a regular 5-series, same materials, same options
- Great car for the family guy taking his kids to school in the morning, but going to the track on weekends
- Spectacular car, he was proud of himself for having managed to take the car back to the dealership in one piece

Thanks for the translation. He sound like he was genuinely frightened by the car's power. I love that
