Chris Harris Drives the F10 M5 versus Nissan GT-R - M5POST

rev7400 · 02-15-2012, 06:09 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Chris Harris' take on the F10 M5 and GT-R:

"Are they rivals, not really. Is the GT-R faster? Yes. Would you rather live with the M5 every day? Yes."

What's important is that he calls them two great cars which he enjoyed every mile and every minute.

good one

clar · 02-15-2012, 07:56 PM

Outstanding review! Chris is the man!!!

Mr.Metak2you · 02-15-2012, 08:37 PM

Yeah, nice!

battlefury · 02-15-2012, 08:45 PM

Agreed.

Alessandro · 02-15-2012, 08:48 PM

i like him a lot

ppatel223 · 02-15-2012, 08:52 PM

Every time he looks straight in camera, he scares me with his big eyes

Entertaining in a somewhat 'top gear' like fashion....and knowledgeable and informative in a most un-top gear like fashion. Chris Harris...the authority on driving!

red-sauerkraut · 02-15-2012, 09:14 PM

Easy for me, it is the M that is the true hooligan.

Bravo BMW. Bravo!

宝马.e90 · 02-15-2012, 09:21 PM

Legit. As amazing of a machine the GT-R is, I'd take the M5 just for how balanced it is. The comfort for every day driving, while the performance is there when you want to let it rip.

CAPSGOD · 02-15-2012, 09:23 PM

Nothing we didn't already know, but a good review nonetheless.

BimmerGuyFL · 02-15-2012, 09:27 PM

Does anyone know what song that is at the end of the video. I actually like it.

GOLFFRR · 02-15-2012, 09:32 PM

and for anyone who said this m5 lacks in the sound department...hahahah it made a hella of alot more noise than the gtr on the track

Cal@Sonic MS · 02-15-2012, 10:08 PM

Much better review than that piss poor excuse of one by that idiot at Autocar.

sparkyg · 02-15-2012, 10:17 PM

At least he gets it. I agree the GTR is a fantastic car, but its not a daily driver. In a perfect world you'd have an M5 and a weekend car.

Nice review in typical Harris fashion, golf clap!

Two fast ways to pick up a six pack.
