My Alpine White M5 arrived. Review with some insight. - Page 2 - M5POST

Ehikmat · 02-21-2012, 04:59 PM

Now with these pictures i'm changing my mind about the black color.
Looks amazing in white

audiobahn · 02-21-2012, 05:02 PM

Can you please post pictures of the interior, alot of them please

Genek335 · 02-21-2012, 05:05 PM

Congrats, it's beautiful!!

One question I have is when you say you had trouble with the ESP, were you on a slightly damp surface or was there a bit of slush?

The reason I ask is because I went from a RWD to an X-drive equipped vehicle. I really like the awd, but at the moment, there is no AWD vehicle from the M division that interests me.

Sweeper · 02-21-2012, 05:08 PM

Hm , old lady with th green bag on the back + dirty snow/roads.

Russia by any chance :> ?

Look pretty cool in white.

Aussie F10M · 02-21-2012, 05:10 PM

Congratulations singularity. Great write up. I am collecting mine in a week and the wait is killing me (and your review didn't help in that regard !).

Enjoy .....

JSCO · 02-21-2012, 05:16 PM

stunning...congrats

Bimmercrazy · 02-21-2012, 05:22 PM

Congrats doesn't say nearly enough. Car is a stunner, very happy for you.

Your review is great, explains alot and I completely agree with the F10 M5 noise, spot on. I also notice you say "moved here from another conglomerate forum of haters who judged the book by its cover"...know exactly where you are coming from. You're amongst friend here

ESP interfered a lot, the dashboard lights kept blinking on a wet road (no ice) in Efficient/Comfort/Comfort settings. It wasn't sluggish, it was just preventing wheels from spinning

Have you had the chance to hear both in person? I am with the reviewer; the F10 sounds really cool and more appealing to my ear than its predecessor.

Rob@StrasseForged · 02-21-2012, 06:12 PM

Gorgeous and congrats, great review too!

Can't wait to see/drive one in person!

High Performance Summer tires will never have a good traction on winter weather

GuyOh · 02-21-2012, 07:20 PM

the best exterior/interior combo! congrats!!!! would love to see more pics!

AM47 · 02-21-2012, 07:28 PM

Congratulations great looking car. The winter weather looks about the same as here, only difference is without the car. I am on the allocation list BMW Canada still can't order the car yet, so we wait.

clar · 02-21-2012, 07:38 PM

Congrats, man! You are spot on in your review of the sound! Must be quite scary driving the car with all those snow. Good thing the need to stick to run-in limitation is helping u calm things down. Have lot's of fun and be safe!
