G90 is unbelievably massive downgrade in comparison to F90 and as a reviewer you’re are trying too smooth it’s edges, nothing special. When you’re saying it’s having 100hp more than RS6, it doesn’t make any sense at all, because Audi is much lighter and faster and it will just destroy an M5 any day. It also doesn’t matter that it’s the most powerful M5 yet, if it weighs nearly as an X7. And what’s the purpose of these 727hp if you can use it ONLY in short periods of time? Any other time it’s not as “dynamic” unless you don’t press a bloody button. This car is horrendous in every aspect, and when you told us about an M3 being ugly and how everyone hated it, you forgot to admit, that G80 is dramatically better in terms of speed, handling, tuning potential, emotions etc. than F80. That’s why people are buying sports cars, isn’t it?
@SakosagaСағат бұрын
I mean there are light weight sports cars you can buy for the same price as this or less. You don't have to buy this car. Personally the plug in hybrid is a great addition and I would love this in a wagon. Yes it's added more weight but when the competition version comes out , or CS if they do it, it's going to smoke most other cars in its class. I look at the AMG GT 4 door and wonder how Mercedes did what they do and it isn't faster. It's just okay.
@magnustan841Сағат бұрын
The thing is though, there’s now clear distinction between the M models. In the past, the M5 was just a more bloated M3 with a V8, I hear people say buy the M3 because it’s smaller, lighter, cheaper etc. it’s now clear the M5 is the plush Autobahn stormer with mega power and the hybrid systems shields it from whatever low-emissions zone rubbish cities in the future might impose. M3 is the family sports car. That said, I see where you’re coming from.

I don't think it looks bad at all. I actually like the styling, just not in that color. I much prefer the previous generation. I think the previous M5 is probably the best looking modern 4 door ever made. The proportion and stance was just perfect. Given the weight of this thing, I seriously don't like the future. I drive a Mazda3 AWD hatch. It's the lightest AWD hatch you can buy at under 3200lbs (base model without the glass sunroof, power heated seats, and subwoofers). Premium AWD is 3255lbs. It's lightweight is one of the reasons I bought it because I didn't want CUV. It's over 400lbs lighter than my E90 xDrive. If these car companies was serious about saving fuel, they wouldn't be making these heavy ass cars. My first new car was a 2000 Civic Si and it weighed a little over 2500lbs. 5spd, 8000rpm 1.6l NA, no traction control, no ABS, no infotainment, but a lot of fun. They don't make them like they used to.
