I am a massive BMW fan, and I am sure the new M5 is brilliant, but from what I have seen so far is the the E63 does everything the M5 can do but be more special, have bit more of a occasion. Ever since the e60 and e90 M cars the engines have been lacking in character and wow/star factor. These new engines are the sensible choice. That is not the M way! the 335 and 535 is all the engine you would ever need on paper. You used to get a M car because it was a bit mad/silly/insane, but at the same time was composed and handled well at the track. Now they just handle well at the track. just my 2 cents on where I think BMW have gone wrong.

It doesn-t looks as good as e63. E63 has more torgue which i guess makes it faster in head to head. It-s just another bmw m5 that looks almost the same like previous m5 and it doesn-t speak to me at all. Sorry bmw but mercedes e63 amg s is just something special and still sounds like a real v8 if compare to new m5 that doesn-t sound like a v8 at all.

Just reading the comments section and my God some people are poor knowledge and choice of words the M division has dominated for the last three decades remember that guys even when Mercedes went all wheel drive and obviously Audi already had all-wheel drive already BMW was still pulling out crazy numbers with rear-wheel-drive 560 horsepower

Heavy, over-tech pretender AND. fake sound! No thanks. Give it 7 years and all the tech will start to go wrong.
What happened to M cars? From the purist lightweight E30, to this.
Autocar, forget the Advertising revenues and get real. This is bloated heavyweight BMW with an 'M' badge on it.

Only 10% owners take m5 to track or even drive it to limits why not a glass roof you spending over 100k u need to have all the luxury it-s not that we can-t live without it just good to see rain drops on roof and sun shine or just a nice clouds while driving just my opinion

I don't get the point of these turbo-charged V8s. they sound shite. If you don't get a raucous raw NA sound, then you might as well buy a Tesla or not bother with the sound at all.
The Guila Quadrifoglio sounds incredible compared to this. and that's a bloody V6!

E63 > Panamera Turbo > CTS-V > M5=GS-F I was a huge BMW fanboy. I've had a 128i vert, E90 M3 competition, 2011 X5M, and currently DD a 2016 X5M. SUV's are great but the rest are shit. Only current production M car I think is true to its roots is the M2.

Trying to decide between this and an E63s and it's not easy. I love my current M3 but after driving the E63 I am tempted to switch. The noise was incredible. Really nice interior too. Can't wait to drive an M5 to help make up my mind.

looks like a car you would get in a old -need for speed- fantasy game, with all thoose options and buttons. Just make a car that drives well? maximum 1 knob that says -race-, would be enough
