You love your ///M5 because ...

(H) · 09-05-2014, 10:45 PM

... it's a luxury sedan and has no problem facing off a McLaren ;-)

Let me hear your thoughts ...

Of course I am completely aware that these are two entirely different cars.
But I have to say just judging from this picture, I have a hard time deciding
which one is the hotter car - in fact I don't, IT'S THE ///M5 ;-)))

ImperialBlue · 09-05-2014, 10:51 PM

Because its makes me do things which i can never do with any car.

its a contract with devil... Evil seduction

Perfect balance between luxury, sport, practicality, style, power, full featured, comfort, fun, DAILY DRIVER.

because its faster than my 458 in a lot of scenarios (except braking and proper handling) but its quieter, more luxurious (x10), i can fit 3 girls in it, and its a bit more daily drivable.
and my 458 was modded and i had almost 12K miles on it... so plenty of comparison, lol. F10 M5's have almost no equal in my use cases at this point in time. No other car can do everything it can at the level I want it to at this point and still be what it is at the same time (No Merc, No Audi, No Porsche).

Because on the dimensions of performance, practicality and luxury it's the best car in the world.

boots · 09-06-2014, 10:00 AM

Because of the dp's I put in I can wake up the neighborhood at 5am every morning.

savela · 09-06-2014, 10:08 AM

Because I worked my ass off for it....and it was worth it.

bim14 · 09-06-2014, 11:13 AM

Because it's one of the few well balanced, refined, luxurious, aesthetically appealing, practical in dry climates sedans that I can get with a banging bang and olufsen sound system and a 6 speed manual transmission.

I second that! I have wanted an M5 since I was 12. Worked my ass off going to college, then started a small business, grew the business over the past 12 years and was finally was able to comfortably afford the car at 36. 24 years in the making. That's why I love my M5!

Enjoy your car sir! You deserve it

Spinny02 · 09-06-2014, 02:49 PM

Much like others... It's been an icon since I was a kid. It's sets the bar for it's class. It's great to be the car everyone is trying to compare/compete with.

Ditto brotha!

Delpo PR · 09-06-2014, 04:48 PM

Because it makes me shiver with anticipation every time I floor it and because it makes me grin every time I exit it.

MichaelJohn · 09-06-2014, 05:22 PM

I don't know, I love my M5 but that gray McLaren looks awfully good.

soooma · 09-06-2014, 07:10 PM

3 hours drive with 2 stops with wife and 2 kids and luggage (Granted milking it-

yet average MPG 25.3 !! -

in a super sedan with super cars like performance yet being tortured in the body of a sedan

and with a symphony of Beethovenish exhaust

LOL
That's why in a nutshell dude

Mscarpa · 09-06-2014, 07:31 PM

+10 !

MSportDC · 09-06-2014, 09:06 PM

Great value in terms of best bang for buck.

Hockey Guy · 09-06-2014, 11:00 PM

Because it does everything I ask of it in the moment, which is a lot! I drive my car HARD, picking my spots obviously. I get out of it (like I have exited my prior M3s and M5s) and I go WOW. Almost every time. Best M yet and by a margin.
