What Owners are Saying About the 2021 BMW M5
"Weapon!"
"felt like i was driving a weapon! burble burble brrrrr... rolling launch, pop pop pop! nasty automobile"
"Head turner & love of my life"
"Three years after owning this car, I still get a huge smile on my face every time I drive this car. The acceleration, handling, and road feel are sublime, invigorating, yet very luxurious. I took my M5 on a 30 day 10k mile road trip of a lifetime, and the seating was comfortable even after 8+ hours on the road. I get thumbs up daily, it’s never let me down mechanically, and I highly recommend that everyone own this car at least once in their lifetime. It’s made my life happier and better, I named it Dream, and that’s exactly what it’s been to me since the day I bought it."
"Like driving God's car"
"I traded my 2017 Challenger Hellcat in on this M5. The M5 pulls just as hard but with all wheel drive it is so much more controlled. The rear end tried to help steer the Hellcat so you better be pointed in the right direction. The M5's fit and finish and interior materials are so perfect. The stereo in the M5 is incredible. The M5 has four doors so you can put people and groceries in the back seat and not just your racing helmet."
