My thoughts on my 2014 M5

[bobblehead]

^ that Asian girl is probably in her late teens or early 20's. This was at Yonge & Finch area.

just yesterday, saw another young Asian girl driving a brand new Maserati GT (2 dr) sports car at Finch & Bayview.

Exactly, that's where she lives. Yong&finch condo. Not that kind of young. Man. She is 26 now
Em... I also saw the maserati several days ago. You know Chinese has one club in Toronto called CSCC (Chinese sports car club). Probably that one also from that club.

really ? she is 26 ... she has that baby face look ! A compliment, may I say.

Yes 26 for sure. Asian girls always look younger maybe.
Tell you one story, my girl friend is 27 now, but some guys even think she is not old enough to get a driving license.

[bobblehead]

Ah! You have 2 precious babies to take care of ! I envy you.

To be honest, the 6GC baby demands less than another.
Em do not tell anybody, we should keep the secret.

[nynd]

We should have a Toronto gathering...lol

[bobblehead]

Yup. Totally understood. Cannot argue with that.

Actually, in all, I have communicated with about 6-8 M5 GTA owners this past year in this forum, they were all pretty active when they got their cars but soon after, say about 6 months into the ownership, they got all quiet and have never heard from.

[bobblehead]

really sorry OP, this thread is now becoming a Cdn GTA owners thread.

great news. So the car should be here around late October or 1st week of November delivery.

They will understand about it.
CDN GTA owners are rarely talkative on forums except e90post

Keep me in mind, maybe we can do 2 for a deal or something. Got my winters ready to go!

Ummm speak for yourself chief I have rarely seen you post in this forum and now suddenly your declaring everyone in the gta a mute

[utahm5]

Could not have said it better! The car is very deceptive to the uninitiated!

You can let the Wife drive it around town with ease. It’s fast but not scary fast for her in M1. Of course that depends on the Wife does it not? I have a ’14 X5 i50 on order for my Wife and she’s already talking about finding a place to drag race!

The very second you drop the car into the preset M2 with the push of a button the car is ALL business! You have to love the Launch Control!

[utahm5]

Dah, sorry, I have know idea how I posted this on the wrong thread!

Em actually I am not belonging to this forum.
6post is the place where I should be.
Just left comment and started talking with Steve. Sorry, it is my bad.
Maybe I should go back my 6post.

The car is absolutely unbelievable. The package this car represents- 4 door sedan with a big trunk and Jekyl & Hyde personality - the car can switch from luxurious family sedan to super sports race car in a flash, I'm not sure there are many better in the world. The interior is superb and BMW clearly spent a lot of time sweating the details - every BMW I've had in the past had something in the cabin that I felt was missing or lacking. Not in this M5!! They even got the cup holders right :-) Even compared to my fully loaded the X6m from 2 years ago, the technology packed into this car is superb.

My M5 replaced my 2012 X6M which was a beast and engineering marvel for its size but at 5200 lbs had limitations from a performance standpoint. A lot of posts on this site talk about the M5 being heavy and big but coming down from the X6M my feeling is a little different!!!

I drove down from No. NJ to DC this morning - my first road trip with the car. This afternoon we were driving in the Virginia countryside through some winding roads and pretty country. Both straight line (down the NJ Tpk) and on the winding roads, the performance and handling of the car are jaw dropping from my standpoint!!!!

Bravo BMW.

I have just past my 1 year of M5 ownership and the winter driving experience was actually a learning process of how to drive with RWD all over again (as my past cars in the last 10 years had been AWD). That's why I was saying it will take a bit of patient and experience of not to step on the gas too much, esp. with a 500+hp car. It can really get yourself into big trouble on busy roads/highways.

As for the M6GC & M5 difference, besides a 4 vs 5-passengers car, the M6GC does look much more attractive and the exclusivity on the GTA roads will def. attract lots of drivers who will envy such a hot car. Both cars' winter driving capability would be more or less identical as both are heavy cars.

As for added car, I would say get a M3/4 as your weekend drive car and use the 650GC as your comfort DD. In this way, you are getting two different types of performance cars. For me, I am in the process of considering getting a Porsche Macan Turbo for next summer, once the upcoming LA show details all the car's final specifications & look, I may be putting it down as my weekend grocery getter I went to Pfaff last week for discussion and the sales guy says there are 30+ buyers for the Macan already.

Im still here bobblehead!!!
