Description: Although it was revealed a few months ago at Frankfurt, the 2013 BMW M5 is about to have its official North American debut at the Detroit Auto Show in just a couple of weeks. Talking with M brand mana...Add Comments5
Landon CombassDec 27, 2011 I don't like BMW. Their cars are boring... I'd much rather own a Hyundai Genesis sedan than a BMW 5
PetrolheadjackDec 26, 2011 this car is already released ?
Miftah Rasheed AmirDec 26, 2011 @Luke: We already have stuff for 2020+ ready for some reason. It's perfectly normal.
Luke WalkerDec 26, 2011 Lol it's not even 2012 yet
Matthew McKernanDec 26, 2011 Wasn't its official N.A. debut supposed to be in L.A? Or was that just not official enough.
Description: This is part of the German automaker's new downsizing strategy: smaller, turbocharged engines that still provide the required output as before (if not greater). It can go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.4...Add Comments4
Zain SheikhDec 28, 2011 I think without the chip it should atleast 205 Because the last one did 205 too
Pineda F JavierDec 27, 2011 Too expensive for this thing id like to get one but i can get up to 2 cars for this price
Dexter CorderoDec 26, 2011 High performance turbo charged engines = shorter engine lifespan = $$$$$$. Not to mention increase in reliability problems.
Vincent ChongDec 26, 2011 Car & Driver confirm with launch control 0-60 time of 3.7 sec
Zain SheikhDec 28, 2011 Truth is both cars are awesome . My oldest brother is a lucky mofo . He got a CTSV for his first car just yesterday . It's freaking badass . but if you can afford the M5 , you should choose the M5
Daniel MarinoDec 26, 2011 Hey every is entitled to their own opinion. I think the cts-v is nicer inside and out and the price tag is nearly 20 grand less.
Geoff NovakDec 26, 2011 Ever since they debued the i8 concept, suddenly, m series dnt look a cool XD
Troi StoesselDec 26, 2011 If you take a cts-v over this your retarded. BMW has better quality and better handling. The cts-v can't match up.
Daniel MarinoDec 26, 2011 I'd take a cts-v any day over this
Dexter CorderoDec 27, 2011 The sound of the n/a v10 on the previous m5 is nothing short of amazing. Nothing like it out there. I consider myself extremely lucky to own one. Even though it's bone stock, it never fails to put a smile on me when driven at WOT.
Devin BabynDec 27, 2011 How isn't it a issue. Having a car with shity mileage is a hassle
Matthew JohnsonDec 26, 2011 The replacement for displacement is the turbocharger. That's the point. I like that they went forced induction. I'm not a big BMW guy though so in the end my opinion isn't clouded by heritage.
Vincent ChongDec 26, 2011 Yeah the old V10 sounds nice. But you're getting 10MPG at the same time
Bala UnccDec 26, 2011 Twin Turbos engines usually sound more aggressive than its counterparts.
But there is not replacement for displacement.
Adam ZarytskyDec 26, 2011 V10s sound amazing. Now this looks bland and won't sound unique :(
Peter SquireDec 26, 2011 They should make look less like every other BMW. Maybe not the grill but just something.
David EslavaDec 26, 2011 Well, I think ithat it has to be awesome to say you own a V10 engined car, so you can compare it to a Gallardo or LFA. Nowadays every SUV has a V8 so it doesn't sound esclusive enough....
Daniel MarinoDec 26, 2011 Thanks carbuzz for deleting my comment. All I said was "Agree with all of you" jeez
Vince DeMasiDec 26, 2011 Exactly what I was thinking if you don't know cars you would think BMW has one car model it's very blah
Bull DogoneDec 26, 2011 Yep. Was behind a brand new 750 the other day and the entire BMW line has become homogenized. From the 1 to the 3 to the 5 and now the 7 series, there is no distinction in the body lines, just size and engine packages. Yawn.
I don't like BMW. Their cars are boring... I'd much rather own a Hyundai Genesis sedan than a BMW 5
