2.5 to 2.8 bar depending on car load.

Shift the gear lever to the left and drive it manually using the paddles. Use M1 or M2 mode (so that the head up display would be in M-mode setting and showing the tachometer and the gear you are in) in the most aggressive setting for steering and engine and middle setting for gear shift. You would then enjoy the seamless acceleration from gear 2 to the red line and change it up yourself. You would then hear that unbelievable downshift sound of V8 when changing down. You would overtake without breaking sweat but beware of speed cameras

I mistakenly test drove an F10 M5 at Bury on a Motorway and A roads and the experience above stay with me. The only thing that has prevented me from buying is financial responsibilities (my current G30 still has a negative equity0 and the F10 M5 dated interior compared to my G30. I would most likely replace my G3O with F90 M5 for that V8 experience

Try the new Michelin PS4S, it’s much better than the prev model in terms of traction. Night and day really.
