Is the 2022 BMW M5 CS a better performance sedan than a CT5-V Blackwing?

FIRST DRIVE: The M5 has always been a top performer from BMW but for 2022 this M5 CS takes it to the next level. On the outside you will fin unique carbon fiber bodywork, and gold 19in forged wheels. On the inside are carbon fiber one piece race style seats, leather and Alcantara. Under the hood the 4.4L twin-turbo V8 now pumps out 627HP.

[@Raven-uu7lb]

I would go for this M5 CS all day long!! Love the design and everything about this car. Thankfully the grille is not as huge as its M3 and M4 brothers

[@RaitisRides]

I’m so glad that you are all about this M5 CS

[@wbwayne8887]

I agree about the M3 and M4 grille, but have to admit it has started to grow on me, and actually looks really aggressive and sporty in darker shades imo. Especially at night.

[@RaitisRides]

Good call

[@willbelasco]

I totally agree, man! I wish it was at least an option with all cars here in America. The new e class has read yellow turn signals, so that gives me hope that it will become a trend here. Such a sea of red everywhere, give us yellow. Plus it’s safer
