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 |
