Hey guys. Welcome back, it's Mark with Exotic Car Play Place. Today I'm
gonna share with you the top six BMW M5s. Where it all began but more
specifically we're gonna talk about my favorite m5s in the order that I like
these cars. My favorites. I'm gonna start with the top, my top favorite, and I'm
gonna work my way down the list, and please before you get to the end don't
chew my head off making a comparison to another gentleman, a small youtuber by
the name of Doug Demuro. Maybe you've heard of him, anyway he wrote this great
article a while back about comparing all the every generation of m5, and how he
feels about each one, and where it ranks for him in terms of favorite to least
favorite, and I'm gonna do the same comparison. So let's get started. Number
one my favorite should be a no surprise and it has no bearing on the fact that
because I own the car. I own the car because it's my favorite it's not the
other way around. It's not my favorite because I own the car. I own the e60 m5.
In my opinion it's the best m5 of all time. Now why is that the best m5? Well not
only did it come with a 507 break horsepower v10 engine, coupled to either
a 7-speed SMG single clutch automatic gearbox, or a 6-speed manual gearbox. No
it's not just that it was actually touted as being one of the very best cars at
the time by Jeremy Clarkson, who basically said it was the best thing
next to an F 430 Ferrari, and to be honest I totally see why. Ya on the
street it's a little bit of a lurchy beast, but you know what a lot of cars
are, and at the end of the day, it still has modern looks. Why it makes the top of
the list is because it is sort of where BMW started with the newer generation,
the iDrive system, had the newer upgraded bumper style, but it had supercar level
of performance that you couldn't find anywhere else in the day. It was faster
than its rivals from Lamborghini and Ferrari, so it just did everything well,
particularly on a race track as well. It came equipped as a touring version, so
you could get the e61 which was a touring version
as well, that same s85 engine was utilized in the m6. Now that brings me to
the best engine, that's why this car is the best, in my opinion is the only m5
rated as doing over 205 miles per hour. So it is extremely fast and it is
extremely fun to drive on a racetrack. On the street it's a handful, but on the
track is one of the very best, so it really bridges some of the most modern
technology with some of the sort of the older driving style. It doesn't have the
full electronics that you find in some of the later cars that you find today, so
Doug I know this one is also going to be a controversial for you as well, I know
the e39 was in fact a favorite of a lot of it purists out there, but for me the
e39 didn't rank as number two either. What is in fact number two for me is the
F10. The f10 came with all of a sudden that was the version that came after
the e60. Now the e60 was 2005 to 2010 whereas all of a sudden the f10 came
along and that was from 2011 late 2011 up until 2016 and that was the F10. Well
they have ten now, they changed the drivetrain quite dramatically,
instead of the old f1 derived v10 engine, and actually now BMW changed it, and
utilized more other tried-and-true 4.4 liter twin-turbo v8 engine. Now this car
produced 560 horsepower versus the 507 found in the e60, which made it
substantially faster, it launched harder, it accelerated quicker, but the interior
was updated nicely, the M Drive system was cleaner, the overall interior styling
was nicer, and in my opinion the f10 was the sharpest looking m5 of all
generations to date. As well it really did use two optional gearboxes, one of
course being the dual clutch transmission, which in my opinion is why
it edges out the f9, and the f9 he will talk about in a
moment. The f10 is truly one of my favorites because it uses the harder
shifting, more aggressive racing transmission, that DCT, but you could also
get it with a six-speed manual gearbox. That in fact is why the f10 is so so
luscious to me. You can also tune it because it's turbocharged, it doesn't
take much you put an exhaust on there, you tune the ECU and you have a car that
does ridiculous speeds, really one of the fastest uber sedans on the market, still
today. So my third choice again sorry guys for those that love the e39 that is
not my third choice either. What is my third choice, is of course the f90, which
I've had recent experience with and I have to tell you the f90 takes what the
f10 did, and just makes it more powerful, more technology, you have just your
control, you have some great electronics, the latest in the greatest. You've got
LED headlights the adaptive LED headlights supreme amounts of power.
right very very quick
What is also special about the f90 of course which is the current model is
that it also includes an all-wheel-drive system that you can deactivate if you
want to run that car in rear drive, tire smoking capability, you can disable that
all-wheel drive system, but in fact this car comes with now 600 brake horsepower.
You can turn a two-wheel drive, you can turn it to four-wheel drive for bad road
conditions. It is really truly a super sedan that can hit the Autobahn at
ridiculous speeds but as well you can use it in really less favorable
conditions. Now you ask well if it's so great why is it not better than the f10?
Well my personal reason for why I would pick an f10 over an F90 is the simple
fact that the gearbox now it is a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission that
comes equipped in the F90 but unfortunately there is no optional DCT,
there is no optional manual gearbox, it is strictly a slick shifting automatic
transmission, and for me that takes away a little bit of that flavor. Now I have
to tell you the interior is much sharper, it's a lot nicer than even the f10.
Far better than the e60, but like I said aside from all the electronics and the
technology, the f90 just can't quite edge out the f10 for me. The f10 still is my
favorite modern day car of course the f90 comes with the more or less similarly
equipped 4.4 liter v8 twin turbocharged motor but they've dialed up the boost a
little bit to provide a little bit more power. In fact the standard F90 car now
is equivalent to the F10s competition package car, so they were very, very close
animal again. The big difference is here some of the technology and of course the
gearbox. Now my next favorite is I know this is Doug's top favorite, but this
would be my next favorite, this would be number 4, and that is the e39 m5, which
was produced in 2002-2003. Now this one here features a manual
gearbox coupled to the 4.9 liter v8 normally aspirated a high-revving v8
engine that was loved and adorned by many ,many enthusiasts out there. I truly
have experienced the e39 myself and I love it for everything that it does and
it does it very, very well. It in fact is is really the last of BMWs really kind
of more core bare-bones stripped out basic interior you know not a lot of
nanny, not a lot to assist you with the driving
experience, it also had a great exhaust. Note it had that classic headlights the
classic BMW look which was a beautiful thing. I love it, sincerely the only thing
for me e39 falls a little bit below these other ones is again you know after
driving 500, 560, 600 horsepower cars, yes it's fun, but it's starting to lack a wee
bit in the horsepower game. There as well as some of the electronics if you look
at the dash display, a lot of people like that
Spartan look. For me I find it slightly dated as well as the bumper styling, some
of the exterior styling as well as a little bit on the dated side for me.
Better value would actually come from a 540 with a manual gearbox, half the price
3/4 of the performance, and to be honest that is almost as fun of a car to drive.
So that's why the e39 is my fourth favorite. So my fifth actually
comes the 1980s version of the m5, which is the e28.
Why is the e28 so great for me? Well it is actually the original car with 255
horsepower straight-6 engine. It was quick in its day for sure, it sort of
initiated the whole concept of the m5, the uber, the autobahn beast it really is.
Where this whole game started for BMW by today's standards, sure 255 horsepower is
a little on the weak side, but don't forget in the 1980s what else
did you have around that time. The Porsche 930 which was the epitome of
performance and strong acceleration that car only
marginally more power, it was also in us-spec only had a slight bit more power
it was only two hundred and some-odd horsepower in the 930.
So this car was right on the 930s heels. Now of course it was special because
this engine came straight out of the m1 which was the BMW super car that was
utilized in the racing series, but unfortunately was counted because of the
specifications couldn't meet the criteria, and as such
BMW decided to utilize that engine, they knew they had a great drivetrain, so they
shared that, they dropped it into the e28. So for me with a manual gearbox it all
began with the e28 and for me, that's why that car is special, and why it's not
at the bottom of my list of top M5s. And so my sixth choice of course last
but certainly not least and please don't be offended anybody, the e34 is a great
car, e34 is the 1992 about 1995 model years. Now this car here produced
over 310 horsepower. It in fact was a blistering car in its day, again it was
very, very fast. Again worth comparing it to the Porsche 930, which wasn't really
the same type of car but in fact in terms of numbers and performance it was
very much similar. Now there are some odd styling bits like the wheels and the
interior, of course, is looking very dated by today's standards, but again it marks
that series and that generation of the m5 that carried through is such an
important trademark car and the BMW lineup. This car was very important and
really in fact today finding a nice a e34 is very difficult to do, and the prices
are going up, up, up, like you would expect for any old-school m5. The values are
going up for clean ones, and it's one of these cars that you want to get your
hands on, if you want to collect such a beast, but generally speaking, interior
touches, styling body, styling again in its day was very classic BMW with the
great headlights, the overall styling was consistent with the rest of the models,
and again it was a very attractive car in its day, and
still looks very classy. So that's why that car is still a favorite of mine.
Now of course it made the bottom of the list, you have to rank them, but all m5s
are important in the scheme in the BMW world, and I love them all. I've
experienced every one of these cars and they all bring something great to the
table. Now I get everybody I hope you enjoyed the video, hope Doug's not mad
about this video, but again you know what, hey he's got a great opinion on that, his
opinion maybe not so right when it comes to the e39 being at the top of the heap.
I know a lot of you guys believe that that car is in fact the top. Sorry guys
it's not it's like everything BMW. Generally the newer the model the better
they get. There are some exceptions, of course, to that again I mentioned the f10
versus the f90. So make sure you guys give me a thumbs up, like, don't forget to
