Ultimate driver

Review

The only limitation with this car is the local inadequate road system and poor drivers who get in the way.

Favorite Features

The instant response, either accelerating, slowing the vehicle down, or manuvering through traffic, this car makes driving a dream!

Suggested Improvements

The only thing I have come across that is useless and out of place are the cup holders, but then who wants food in this car anyway? Could do with a more dynamic horn as well.

Review

I l ike everything about the M5. The car is stable, comfortable, and very fast. The M5 puts a smile on my face whenever I drive it.

Favorite Features

The M5 comes standard with everything with almost no options to add. I love the power and control.

The bad beast

Review

I echo most other reviews - a pure rocket to drive, very comfortable, I think the best sedan ever built! I have owned 911s, 924Ss, 3-series bimmers, this car blows everything away! I'll probably buy an '03 M5 next, since I am not a fan of the E60 body style (yet, anyway!).

Favorite Features

Sport on, DSC off - and serious 0-60 acceleration (0-100 too for that matter!).

Suggested Improvements

Cup holders, power window motors are weak, cross drilled rotors, shorter throw shifter.

Makes one very aware of where you are... and if you want to go anywhere you simply look and go! Excellent brakes and performance.

Smoothness.

Cup holders.

M5 Perfection

Review

I've had the car for nearly 7 years, and since I've never owned ANY car for more that 3-4 years, I've tried to look for something more exciting to replace it with for the last 3 years. There truly has been nothing out there that packs as much perfect styling, acceleration, comfort and overall fun factor as this "family" sedan. I finally found another 4 door car that just got released (CLS63 AMG) that has taken what M5 created, and stepped up the technology and power, while keeping the concept of having the most fun on the road while hauling a family of 4 and blowing the doors of anything in your path. The M5 experience has been precious!

Favorite Features

Engine, engine, engine. The build quality is exceptional, not a rattle anywhere after 7 years!

Suggested Improvements

Did the warranty really have to run out after 4 years?

Amazing

Review

My dream car was a 911 forever. When I went to buy one, I didn't fit. This became my dream car and I am so glad. Amazing performance - AMAZING. Faster than most everything, subtle looks, comfy and did I mention FAST! Great mileage for a 400HP sedan - 23+mpg when cruising on the freeway. It's a 911 with 4 doors. For the money I dont think it can be beat by anything on the road. Very refined vehicle.

Favorite Features

Power, stereo, navigation

Suggested Improvements

Really none come to mind.

Holding Strong, Great Deal

Written by: Driven on 04/01/2006

Review

Now that the new M5 has appeared in the US Market, the previous generation has become quite a bargain. Still turns heads, still drives like a rocket, but you can buy one for less than $30,000. Tremendous deal. Always have it examined by a dealership before you buy. Anticipate (and budget) higher than average maintenance expenses, but not more than 200% of the average used car of this year. If you use a car an appliance to get from point A to point B, you will be happier with a Honda. If you love to drive, this is the car for you. The staggered tire sizes means no rotating tires. No spare tire, no run flat tires. Better know how to drive a stick. Higher maintenance costs than a Toyota.

Favorite Features

400hp, traction control to keep the power under control. Great stereo. Impress clients without spending a fortune.
