wez_p Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 M5 review over 500bhp without a turbo or supercharger, and i thought there was something to be worried about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 My old man took delivery of a new V10 M5 this week - it's an absolute weapon, I love it! Have only done 400 miles of the necessary 1200 before we can play with it 'properly', but it's still faster than anything we've come across and that is at its lowest setting (a measly 400bhp). Favourite bit is the seats - adjustable god knows how many ways, but has reactive lumber and side support! The seats hug you from the opposite side of the way your turning to provide additional support. It sounds pretty namby pamby, but experiencing it first hand it's incredible how well they hold you!

roboldham Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 crikey - thats a bit of a tool - looks really bland though IMHO The M6 is similarly specced I think - but looks a lot better, even though its a bimmer. Definitely one to watch out for on the roads! R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Sounds like a nice car. Probably see them in Germany next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulrenn Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 The bloke I rent my garage from had a new black M6 last week. It looked absolutely awesome with beige leather interior. Much better than the M5 IMHO. But then the bugger also has a black M3 cabrio (latest version of course) and a black 360 Modena. It must suck to be him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 M5 review Can you believe anything on that web site? I mean, look : http://cars.msn.co.uk/pidl/93324781/nissan_skyline_gt1.jpg Nissan Skyline GT-R - from around £5,000 I'd have one for £5k !

RedM Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Nice! All that power in the hands of people who a). can't drive and b). have zero respect for other road users. Recipe for disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
