View Full Version : The Beast Known as the M5
zerome Sat, Feb-28-2004, 04:38:29 PM I know that the M5 board already knows about this but I wanted to know what my fellow M3 guys opinion was...
You can bet when the M4 comes up, someone will be doing the same thing in the M5 board...
But anyway...
Opinons on the Beast....
I think I'm in heaven

Divexxtreme Sat, Feb-28-2004, 04:43:36 PM I think it's ugly and has too many doors. The only thing I like it about it is the power.:thumbsup:
SPEE Sat, Feb-28-2004, 04:56:05 PM looks real good
Ninja K Sat, Feb-28-2004, 05:00:03 PM it's the badger's nadgers.
Midwest M3 Sat, Feb-28-2004, 05:03:26 PM Looks good on the silver screen....Will reserve final judgement for real life....
STALKER Sat, Feb-28-2004, 05:08:03 PM I like the skirts, think it finishes off the car well. Its gonna be a monster.
medici78 Sat, Feb-28-2004, 05:34:23 PM Looks good to me!
Topaz M3 Chibi Sat, Feb-28-2004, 05:46:23 PM it will look horrific once you see the rear...plus the new cars are all too big looking
Lightfoot Sat, Feb-28-2004, 07:05:33 PM I like the power numbers but not the styling, or on any of the new 5 series BMWs. I was driving with one of my sons and one passed us with both of us thinking it was a Pontiac Grand Prix.
jerrygee Sat, Feb-28-2004, 08:17:48 PM I like it. Seeing the pictures even encouraged me to call my friend and BMW salesman this morning to confirm what number I currently was on their M5 list. I look at car buying like a chess game; I always try to stay one move ahead. Next list to get on is for the M4, they wouldn’t even start one of those yet!
i need an M Sat, Feb-28-2004, 08:21:35 PM I like the design. The performance should make up for those who think the design fell short
721M3 Sat, Feb-28-2004, 08:53:06 PM those side mirrors gotta go!!
da3bous Sat, Feb-28-2004, 09:29:27 PM I have trouble beleiving thats it.....it doesn't have the trademark M mirrors....the front is a lil to rounded IMO and they don't show the back......looks like another photoshop plus I don't hitnk the owners circle has said anything yet!!

darkside Sun, Feb-29-2004, 01:25:33 PM To me it is academic as the new M5 is not going to be affordable for me. That is one of the reasons I like the M3 so much - M5 beating performance at almost $20000 less. If I get an M5 it will probably be an 02 or 03 as I like that styling and I think those will become a "bargain."
Ashok Sun, Feb-29-2004, 01:47:02 PM Yeah, but you'd be mad to try and take the family with all it's luggage across Europe in an M3 whereas it's easy in an M5 :thumbsup:

These are official pics released by BMW originally posted on their website but have since been taken down.

i like the 2002 version. i think. this thing is not good looking. it doesnt inspire hardness either.
