Here's Why The BMW E60 M5 Is The **Greatest M Car Ever Produced**

[@JakeMesssser]

It's refreshing to see someone actually understand the E60 M5 in this way. I daily drove my 1989 750iL and people dogged on me so much about how excessive the maintenance would be. It's been my most reliable BMW I have owned in nearly 15 years. The V12 is just impeccable and so long as you take care of it, it will do just fine. You can't throw these super luxury and performance cars on the road expecting them to drive like new, but for the cost/investment of maintenance you won't get anything else like it. Queue the E60 M5 being a Lambo on a budget with 4 doors that will take nearly any modern car to the cleaners today. Of course it has higher maintenance costs, its a V10 that revs to nearly 10k RPM lol I just bought a 2006 M5 with 92k miles on the clock. Will be excited to get it in and experience the joy of ownership this car has to offer. The last of the great high cylinder count cars that are naturally aspirated.

[@MTBSHOGUN]

I absolutely love working on my own cars. Especially the e60 m5 it's definitely an amazing work of art to me . Keep up the great content sir 👍🍻

[@adeelcyril3339]

This will be the ultimate classic 4 door super sedan. No turbos...just smiles every you time are on it! New versions don’t do it for me...... Respect this video and your input. 👌

[@pwjc75]

Dean, as a fellow E60 M5 owner, and have been for many years, you’ve become the ‘go to’ bloke on KZbin for realistic advice about owning BM’s. Glad you like the M5, they’re a bit of a Marmite car, but the performance cannot be argued with. 100k miles in, still can’t find anything to replace it with.

[@UMNRZ]

Yes the new M5's are faster to 60 but nothing beats the raw nature of a V10. Absolutely love mine. Like the geezer said most of the people who bash this car are just sheep who jump on the bandwagon and have never owned one themselves. Get your Rod bearings, throttle actuators, fuel injectors and Vanos high pressure lines done as preventative maintenance and keep up with regular oil changes and you will absolutely love it

[@boydiedj3718]

So interesting. What would worry me about it is the fact I do 3 miles a day. Oil not getting up to temperature regular and I reckoned it would just be asking for trouble. So nice to see it getting a positive review for once. These will be worth a fortune in the future I think. Investors should buy them up and garage them.

[@EightyFiveHundred]

"Work for the power" is exactly right.

[@rotorblade9508]

The turbocharger straight 6 is no match for the award winning v10

[@austinmoehring6110]

I rode in my buddy's M5 v10. It was so exciting. His was fully loaded. I got his hood emblem on my e36! Definitely the best in it's class. I sure appreciate the M division too. Those M dudes must be proud.

[@rodryr2869]

Had mine for 12 years and car is running great always do the services

[@MaxAndreas]

The smg AND the engine are extremely reliable?

[@CastroJordan]

Only thing you need brother is a nice deep clean on the steering wheel it’s years worth of oil on it. Get it nice and clean and matte so at least it’s only your hands oils on it going forward. Since I started cleaning mine I became a snob, you will too when you feel a clean leather wheel it’s amazing. Get the sonax stuff, you’ll be shocked how much gunk you’ll pull off of it. It’ll bring more driving pleasure

[@terrygreen5591]

Keep going fella

[@MT-THNDR207]

Is it possible to tune the E60 DME to get back to the original horsepower output?

[@casieus9648]

I recommend a full dinan exhaust system ! I love it on mine !

[@CastroJordan]

I’m not new to bmw but I’m relatively new to working on bmw’s, not for a living just my own cars. Just to save me money and the enjoyment of doing it all myself. Once I get more experience and confidence, I’ll buy a e60 just to experience it. As a bmw enthusiast and loyalist I feel like I have to. Im looking into actually getting certified and proper schooling for bmw’s, but I have to make it work on the side I’m already maintaining a career and life. If anyone has some advice that have done it let me know. I would like to specialize in only bmw from the jump , at least German cars. Not looking to work for anyone but down the line possibly open my own shop.

[@Darktimesv]

Aye welcome to the E60 M5 club! Its a gem.

[@markphilip581]

So happy you bought the e60 M5 . Look forward to more of your very informative video's.

[@nickkotsify]

NA 4 life! after my n52 i want the S85. the active seats sounds awesome mate

[@boostabuse]

First I have heard the 900hp claim, please explain? I want mine to make that hp NA 👍

[@BMWDoctor]

Not allowed to tell you that and how to, I will be the first to do it and then I will let you know what it feels like. Already in the process of doing it already. But of course I won’t be putting a video showing how to do it as I can’t influence idiots to do it who can’t even have there M5’s without a engine light on.

[@boostabuse]

@@BMWDoctor If you can achieve close to that hp NA you'll be the most popular guy in the S85 world. good luck,can't wait 👍

[@BMWDoctor]

I know it's just a shame that 1. there isn't many people who cherish this car 2. When I do that this will be the only reason people want them which is a complete shame. But this is why as I said I wont be showing or telling anyone on how to do it as I believe things like that are better kept secret, as that is when people buy these cars for the wrong reason's and I cant let that happen and WON'T. As you probably know I'm very different to other KZbinr's and don't reveal much of anything I do for A lot of reason's, As most who watch are either idiot's or all looking for more power and more power is dangerous for most idiots who watch.

[@ninjabeatz905]

Amazing Dr Dean

[@BMWDoctor]

Many thanks

[@pplace993]

He absolutely correct!!! Love my 07 M5 SMG!!!

[@mikemaraj3200]

Excellent video on our m5 v10 beast, it's about time to hear the real truth.

[@milehighboost5521]

How do you feel about the m6? Wish someone would compare the two to see what the difference in driving them would be around corners or just on a little bit of a road trip.

[@joshdominguez341]

Beautiful car dean just needs an exhaust for that v10 to roar 👌🏻

[@BMWDoctor]

Exhaust is coming 😊 along with something else

[@raphaelbeauchamp3088]

@@BMWDoctor Did you install an exhaust on the M5 ? And if so, witch one ? Thanks Dean ! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@deoyebammeke9725]

I appreciate your understanding of the last man standing of a superb engineering machine..... The clutch is down now, trust I'm the same spirit as you.... It's not for Sale?

[@curtishouze1471]

I was wondering why you prefer the E60 over the F10. I am curious, are you/have you filmed a video on how to “Drive with the SMG transmission “?

[@tommynobaka]

for smooth shifts, you roll into gear with the gas slowly like a regular old manual. If you hold the gas harder and shift, that's when you get jerky hard shifts. holding the gas past 50% throttle and shifting is meant for harder driving (along the lines of tracking or dragging racing) people who complain about the smg drive it like a dct which it is not

[@courtneyshim3480]

First review which spells out the truth

[@brownthunder509]

Such a nice car can't believe you lucked out on it!!!!

[@cyvox7433]

6:36 v10 legendary. this will blow your eyes out this information. when bmw m built this engine it came out with 900bhp. then they had to get alot of engineers to detune the engine with a load of sensors and computers to bring the m5 down to 507bhp.. What amazing piece of information this is. quote that!

[@josephdavis4360]

I’m searching for an e60 m5 at the moment. I have an e60 550i msport and it has the active bolsters and it’s 0-60 is comparable to the m5 just not the same sound

[@raymondchen6720]

How do you feel about the Troy jeup motor built s85s?

[@james_delahunt]

Dean don’t worry I had this notion BMW’s were bad unreliable n stuff for years and I said nah yeno what I’ll buy one I bought an e60 520d m47 engine I love it to pieces so much so that my gf gets less attention it’s a solid well built car I had this idea that toyotas and hondas were reliable NOOOO BMW’s are reliable but they require some TLC and proper care but they are one of the best European cars out there in terms of quality everything from the engines to the door handles fantastic pieces of German high quality engineering finished to an exceptionally high standard buy a bmw join the club fix yur own car care for it cherish it you won’t regret it

[@ryu411]

I love the video, but there is one other family sedan from Germany with a V10! The 3rd generation Audi RS6 has a 5.2 NA V10 engine! :3

[@deoyebammeke9725]

M5 raise to power of 507 to x

[@MLifeM6]

You are speaking my language Dean! I completely agree with everything you are saying. Coming from a long time S85 V10 owner you definitely know what you're talking about. My 07 M6 smg clutch lasted me up to 105k miles! And it actually still had life in it. Only reason I changed it was for preventive maintenance. #MPower #S85 F10 M5 or newer M6 doesn't have shit on the NA V10 I'm also not a fan of turbo cars. The NA V10 S85 has a soul that the newer Ms will never have with their turbos.

How would you retune it to get 900bhp 🤔.

Hey, love your channel. Can you elaborate on when you said they initially came out of factory with 900 bhp? I can’t find anything on this. Also, I’ve had an f10 M5 and genuinely it feels N/A despite twin turbos!!

Unfortunately, it didn't start this morning. don't put ignition on, battery ok, Fault code :A114 eletronic steering lock In. under dashboard fuse box 5A f61 fuse cut off if I put ignition on. What do you think about this problem🤔

Final conclusion : If you can do some or all of the work by yourself , you can buy any car . If not , consider again :P

[@tonycarter66]

Had BMW cars since the early 8Os, made sure whatever I had had been looked after with good history , and then looked after well by myself including most of the work, out of ten cars only one went bad, big ends, in my opinion most if not all BMWs are very very reliable, try running a Merc, you will soon know what unreliable means 🙄

[@BMWDoctor]

I think your very wrong there let me assure you. Mercedes is very very reliable more reliable then BMW even by today’s standards hence why everyone is going over to them. All the people I knew used to and I mean this “USED” to drive BMW and all went over to Mercedes more luxury look , better styling , better performance and better reliability. Take the C63 AMG the most reliable car and bulletproof yet a monster, I don’t know what Mercedes your talking about but even the 2.1 diesel is very very reliable MERCEDES are known for there reliability of Diesel engines. And let’s not even get onto there hand built certified engines which come with certificates showing who hand built that engine. Gearbox on AMG zero problems ever listed or heard engine on AMG zero problems and not ever heard of. So when your talking about Mercedes please come correct as I specialise in both brands something many don’t know on here I have two channels one for Mercedes and one for BMW, so I beg to differ on this !

[@TheJoelrock67]

Just bought my E60 M5 about 5 months ago with only 60K miles on it, this car will never get old, will never look old and will never feel old! Epic! The stock exhaust alone is music to my ears. Thinking of installing an exhaust system but at the same time I bought this car in mint stock condition. Might regret start cutting original M parts out of it. What do you guys think??
