Performance -- Acceleration is lightning fast, the brakes are excellent, u just need to touch the paddle and this car freezes! Handling is superb,awesome, the car doesnt needs a driver!
The car is real fun to drive.
As this car is  German made, so ofcourse, the build quality is off the charts! It doesnt make a single squeak at any kind of terrain.
The appearance!!!! Love at first sight! ur eyes will stick to its huge kidney grille! Exterior styling is mind blowing as well as its interior design!
When u get all the above qualities, u shud have all the greens they want! It cost around 90k usd, but the fully loaded Bmw M5 sedan costs u about a hefty 110k usd!
It has a naturally aspirated 5.0 L BMW V10 S85 engine redlining at 8250 rpm and developing a peak output of 500 SAE hp (507 PS, 373 kW) with 383 ft·lbf (519 N·m) of torque. It is equipped with a capacity of 70 liter tank. The car gives an average of 17 to 20 MPG. It has quite an excessive fuel consumption in accordance with the globally sky rocketing oil prices.
The Mighty M5 is as ferocious as a ferrari and as functional as a Camry. It is one of the best cars ever produced in this world. It is without doubt the fastest saloon car on the planet!

Pros: Acceleration, braking, handling, top speed, safety and above all its design!
Cons: Fuel consumption, cost of ownership, less mileage average

One of the world’s fastest and most powerful street-legal BMW is made by G-Power. The 211-mph G-Power Hurricane is based on the latest BMW M5. At the heart of the high-performance sedan is a five-liter V10 engine with G-Power EVO II supercharging system that delivers 730 bhp

Pros: The pre-compressed charge air is cooled down in a highly efficient dual-flow water-to-air intercooler system that is mounted above the engine.
Cons: there nothing negatives about this car

The car was amazing to drive. There is no substitute for the V-10. The car fairly easy to drive and the response was phenomenal. It is a very fun car to drive; handles like a sports car with the size of a full sedan. The cost, on the other hand, is not so nice and fun. The MSRP for that particular M5 was priced at $95,000. At some point, the following thought crosses  your mind:" is a car really worth over $100,000?" I leave that up to you.

Pros: the performance and the fun factor
Cons: like all things, cost of ownership

I still had 3 months left on my '06 Audi A8 lease, but Niello BMW
in Sacramento made me an offer I simply could not refuse! This
car is loaded and handles like no other 4-door sedan. The
mileage is atrocious, but everything else makes this bat mobile
the car I always wanted :-)

Pros: V10, 515HP (with Dinan software), All Leather Interior, Handling, Heads-up Display
Cons: Mileage (13/17)
