Awesome video, that V10 sounds mean, looks to be around 34 seconds from the 0-270kmh

Wow, i like the engine and the sound. The more I see this new 5 series M5, the more I like it. The only complain I have is the cheap-looking interior.

Anyone here thinks that the exterior of the new M5/5 series looks more aggressive than W211? W211 looks a little outdated. Is it because I owned it? Anyone has same experience here?

Not at all... the E55 is BEAUTIFUL... as is the interior. Read the M5 board and even the die hard BMW folks dont say the M5 is beautiful.. they say things like: "I'm starting to warm up to the looks" or "I saw the M5 in person and it does look much better than the pictures". The M5 will be a neat car if they get the bugs worked out of it and begin production... but it's strong point is not looks IMO. Just my 0.02.

I bet it doesn't have the same rotors on each side like the POS AMG rotors.

The M5 is definitely an improvement over the standard 5 series, but it definitely is not beautiful.

I bet you that the car that they warmed up to was a darker color E60 (blue or black)...it seems the trunk afterthought seems more palatable in a darker color.

The interior is also very "cold" feeling...like your on a coroner's table w/ all his/her shiny tools lying around. The E55 is more inviting to me...maybe it'll be different in person, but definately get any bangle creation in a darker color...lighter colors just highlight the **** even more...like Steve Martin's nose in Roxanne...you can't stop looking at it...but you can't help it...

Sick.Sounds and looks fast. I think I heard a fourth gear scratch in one of the vids. I still don't like the looks the you can't knock the speed its there. It would be nice to have both e55 and a m5 in my garage.

nice vids

in the 0-270km/h video, it looked like the M5 is hard to lanuch and it sounded like a manual when it shifted
