BMW M5 - One Button Makes All the Difference | Top Gear - Part 2

Part two of two. Still unable to turn the sat-nav off Jeremy resorts to the 'M' button which transforms the sedate BMW M5 into a beast of car. Its then over to the Stig for a power-sliding lap of the Top Gear track.

The Jaguar XE-S does 4.9 on a supercharged V6 and corners better, sounds pretty nice and bills far lower (less than half as much); it may even pip this beast around a track. But I agree, you cannot replace the drama of a V10; we still wait, maybe Porsche to accommodate in a newer Panamera?

Ngl. I used to work for BMW and the first time I drove one of these E60 M5s, I played this review off my phone through the Bluetooth and hit that M-button when he said that line. One of the greatest motoring feelings I’ve ever had.

[@rahulfaldu2891]

Everytime man, EVERYTIME.

[@EpsilonBiatch]

“At the touch of a button it becomes one of the very best, it becomes... an M5” the love for this car and the heritage it carries with itself is just unrivaled. 35 years ago you couldn’t even dream of “fast” cars that aren’t a Ferrari or a tiny two door coupe, until the M5 changed everything and forged performance, comfort and luxury into true perfection. Ferraris at that time had no radios or door handles, yet they got chased around by a big bulky saloon with huge comfy leather seats, various comfort options and a class leading high quality interior. You can say whatever you want about BMW, but the cars they made were simply unrivaled.

[@Quertziop]

it wasn`t predictable. Look for the BMW X6 review for example.There are lots of other review in which he just roasts the car. And here, i thought that it was going to be the same.

[@netweed09]

Ikr i fully agree; his German 'banter' was so forced, you could tell how salty he actually was that the British automotive industry died and the Germans did conquer after all. Even Tata took his Jag away. As you perfectly said; at times he was really funny but he always had that autist complex in him , and ended up transforming into the full hooligan over lunchtime one day eventually

[@TheCoolmandingo]

Dillon Harper the car is dope! luckily everything was changed before I purchased mine. You will have onlookers sweating the car because they know what it is. The ones that don't know will find out when you smoke them. I love the car. its a gas guzzler though. so unless you have secondary car you will spend a lot and I mean a lot of money on gas. I only drive mine on the weekends or when im feelin cool during the week other than I keep it parked up. its the risk you run when buying used car. the good thing about this car is that when youre done you still going to make money on it because its a M5. ayo add me on G+ and will give my number to give you more info on the car. I will help out as much as possible. you shouldn't buy something if you worried. let me know.

[@TheCoolmandingo]

This car is a beast! check out my profile pic!!!!!!

Sebastian Shaw the M5 all day! the resale value i would assume would be far much greater on the M5. sorry I'm not able to go in-depth because I'm watching videos on the shooting in cali. i will have more to say after i watch some of that but on the real the m5 is where its at. the gas consumption is a mother though. think about that.

4:47 If you listen closely to the sat-nav voice you can hear a cut from the song that was playing earlier in the video when Jeremy was complaining about the car.

[@lenny0912]

LMAOOOOOO

[@davewidhalm4380]

I've got on 06 M5 and can say that Clarkson's review was spot on...except for not being able to cancel the turn signals and nav voice (which are actually easy to do). It IS slow and dim-witted around town, rolls back and forth (due to the SMG), and is overly complicated with the iDrive. The standard P400 feels like a lot less than 400 hp, and driving around town it almost feels and sounds like a 4 cylinder car with the lack of torque and tinny exhaust note at lower RPMs. It doesn't remotely feel like an M5 until put into P500 Sport and getting the RPM's over 5000, at which point it becomes a monster and the exhaust note becomes glorious. His opinion of the car was exactly the same as mine the first time I drove it and until I got used to its quirkiness. This is 100% a drivers car, and not for the faint hearted. Probably explains why my wife absolutely hates it.

[@mainlymusicman]

had an 08 m5. wish i still had it. best car i ever drove. (now i have the f10)

[@mikehayman2467]

Honestly I don't think the SMG is that bad. It's certainly not super smooth, but I drive my wife/kid around all the time and they don't complain. It is tricky though and takes a while to get used to. The hill assist helps a ton with not rolling backwards/forwards, but it only holds for 1 second so you need to be moving as soon as you're off the brakes. It's all worth it though, this car is just incredible, I still can't believe I drive one every day.

[@netweed09]

Lol; so true about the wife part, women and cars ey, like men and handbags, except why do ours have to cost 1000 times as much?? xDDD

And it's still relevant today; BMW M5's have only gotten uglier both in terms of looks and noise. It's still the only proper 4-door saloon with a thunderous V10 in it. I totally disagree with him on the looks, there was something very artisanal and iconic about those swoopy headlamps; just that the front grill wasn't aggressive enough but it strangley suited the car; the whole thing had a strangely elegant forme.

Just like some romantic crap in movies makes girls cry, this made me, a 95kg 190cm tall man genuinely shed a tear. this car is maybe the last scream of motoring insanity from BMW, remember that... it's high on my list of dream cars. Purebred racing V10 and that tough, not really friendly gearbox that works good only when you drive like a maniac... As Jeremy would say, WHAT A MACHINE.

There was an ad for the Dacia Logan before the video... Captain Slow approves!

[@ChrisPMT]

So a 4-door saloon is faster than a original Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder? BMW M5 = 0-60 in 4.5sec Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder = 0-60 in 4.7sec BMW M5 = Top Speed-204mph Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder = Top Speed-195mph And the BMW is half the value.

[@drinkingthatkool-aid3193]

Gallardo Spyder takes 4.7s to 60mph?! I find that hard to believe sir. Top Speed should be close to 200.

[@GOLDENEYEAL]

Gallardo 0-60 4 seconds dead

[@rscosworthfan]

ChrisPMT and it carries passangers too ;o)

[@Rozgreez562]

ChrisPMT funny how this is 500+ Horsepower, has the ability to do 204mph(given time and distance) and the new Charger Hellcat has 707 HP and also is 204mph, may get there faster but, yeah. This car was unveiled in early 2005, that means the technology was being produce during early 2000's...Interesting right?

[@m5pilot397]

Rozgreez The e60 has a much better (lower) drag coefficient (and likely smaller frontal area, not sure) than the Charger. Top speed is about HP, CD, and frontal area, primarily. Weight, as well, to some extent. The M5 also weighs less than the Charger Hellcat, I presume?

Chris Bangle creates a timeless facade with this M5. Nowadays BMW is more conservative in their design language, and it’s a shame because Bangle’s Bimmers have character in their looks, which is something we probably won’t see any time soon

[@ciaranwalsh96]

13 years later, it still blows my mind that BMW made a road going 5 Series capable of doing 204mph. This M5 was so out of this world in 2005, and even now it seems outrageous.

True.

[@berkaloffrespirators6206]

It's really very strange in that when it was released, it was kind of ahead of its time. At first, everyone said it was ugly, but soon, everybody loved that sort of design and everybody making sedans tried to copy it. Funny how that worked :P

One of my favorite reviews since it aired and I watched it the night before I picked one up. I still can't believe I have one in my garage. I remember watching this before I could even drive, thinking how I could never have one unless I was rich. I didn't account for depreciation. I spent more on buying a Mini Cooper S than I did my M5 😂

[@ruraldrumrolllad8319]

Do you still have the car and how many problems did you have with it?

[@Asa7LCI]

@@ruraldrumrolllad8319 I still have it. I don't regret anything. I took it on a 2.5 day, 3,000mi cross country road trip and it ate the miles up. There were minor issues and a clutch/flywheel replacement over the past 5 years, but nothing a little bit of research and my laptop couldn't fix. Currently doing the 6 Speed manual conversion. I told myself when the SMG pump fails, I'll convert it. It failed last year, but I've had to travel away for months with my job and have been slowly chipping away at installing everything.

[@Asa7LCI]

@@ruraldrumrolllad8319 biggest issue (besides the pump failing, which I expected) was the SMG relay. It went out and took me like an hour to figure out. Had to get a buddy to pick me up to get a new relay but it was back on the road a couple hours later. Other issues, we're understandable with it being at 100k miles. Ignition coils, cracking insulation on head light wiring, sunroof safety switch, SMG being rough at firsr in 20°F Temps, low Temps affecting the battery... But all in all, when it works it's completely worth it. It's planted and stable at all speeds, grips turns, stops, and goes like a madman, the sound gives me chills, and just drives like the good old days of BMWs. You can feel what each wheel is doing. The pedals and steering wheel are telepathic in what you want the car to do. The car is just the right size and you know where it's edges are. So yeah there were some issues that a tow and shop could have been a couple hundred bucks, but if you aren't afraid to spend an evening troubleshooting, you'll save that money with a $50 Kdcan cable and a laptop, or a set of hand tools and self sourced replacement parts.
