The racing version of the BMW S675RR

2018 BMW M5 First Edition review - Duration: 16:09.
If you had this as a phone in the '90s or early '00s, you had a cool one.
We're not going to do the new one. 12 million wasn't enough.
Call me back if you have something better.
That was cool, but as a key I think it's bulky.
It's going to rain. You can see it's cloudy. However, I'm not afraid.
I wasn't afraid in the previous M5 either, but there's a big difference.
This is the new one, the first real M model...
We already had the X5 M, X6 M, and more of these monstrosities. They're cool though.
This is the first M5 with all-wheel drive. This offers new perspectives.
I'm outside and can talk about the handling, but maybe we should talk about the looks first.
This is a First Edition, of which 400 will be built. It's Frozen Dark Red metallic.
We don't know what it is, but it's a flat color.
It's a special color, too. I don't know if I'll be a fan for long, but it's a cool edition.
It has high-gloss wheels, high-gloss exhaust tips, a carbon roof...
The previous M5 didn't have that.
Let's dig in the history. The M3 and M4 did have one, but the M5 didn't.
I stand corrected if it did have one.
The looks. I think the new 5 Series and the M5 look refreshed.
I'm a fan of the looks. We'll talk about the rest while driving.
Should I say something about the key? It does have an M logo.
People will ask you what car you drive. "The new M5." The key can switch on the heater.
Do you have a cover for your phone? - There are M phone covers.
I can switch on the heater.
It's cold inside. It's cool. Too bad the key is so big. We're going to drive.
We have different weather conditions, which is nice for testing.
The previous M5 performed well in dry conditions, but not so much in the rain.
The big change, like I said, is all-wheel drive.
You can also drive it as a rear-wheel drive car.
The only illogical thing is you need to switch off ESP
before you can choose all-wheel drive, a sport version of all-wheel drive, or rear-wheel drive.
The press release doesn't say what 4WD Sport is exactly.
In a drift I feel lots of power going to the rear, but some goes to the front.
You feel this when the drift angle increases, but I don't know what it does.
I don't know if it's 30-70 or if it's variable.
It would be more logical, but it doesn't, to have it fixed.
The driver will have a more predictable car with the systems switched off.
When I was hooning the car it turned out to be a supercar with four doors.
It has DVD screens in the back. Thank you, BMW Netherlands.
My kids liked watching DVDs in the back seat.
The V8 engine of the previous generation stayed.
It has two turbos in the V, making it a Hot V.
The previous generation went out of production with the 592 hp 30 Years edition.
That was a special version. With this one they start at 592 hp and 750 Nm (553 lb ft) torque.
That means it easily accelerates to 250 kph (155 mph), the first limit.
If you check the M Drivers Package box, you get to do 305 kph (190 mph).
This too is a limit.
0-100 kph (62 mph) takes 3.5 seconds thanks to all-wheel drive and launch control.
We're going to try that.
That system works really well, doesn't it?
We went back to the '90s, when we didn't have launch control.
It worked this bad with all manufacturers 10 years ago.
Launch control, launch control, launch control. It stays difficult for some manufacturers.
Porsche and Volkswagen have functional launch control. Audi isn't always as clear either.
Put it in Sport and you can use it. BMW needs a couple of steps. Some are logical.
Start-stop switched off. Fine. That's logical.
Next, the transmission needs to be in S3, which is manual shifting. I can choose the shifting speed.
Next, the illogical part: ESP needs to be switched off.
Are we going to die? It's switched off now. Push the brakes and go full throttle.
It's in manual but it shifts automatically as long as I go full throttle.
I think this type of launch control is only meant to paste a nice sprint number in the folder.
You're never doing this in real life.
It's not relaxed to go pedal to the metal with all the systems switched off.
It's a tricky car, especially in these conditions.
It's a bit illogical.
How fast these cars are is best indicated with the 0-200 kph (124 mph) time: 11.1 seconds.
If you subtract 3.4 seconds, that's 7.7 seconds from 100 to 200 kph (62-124 mph).
That's very fast. Your car probably doesn't do 0-100 kph (62 mph) in 7.7 seconds.
You can have a quick car.
This is a canon.
This car can do everything. Yes, it's fast and has many seats.
The room disappoints me, though.
These are special M seats, the comfort version. BMW fans know them.
You can change the curve of the backrest and it reclines.
Great, but it's a voluminous solution.
Voluminous is like the word aluminum. It gets stranger when you say it ten times.
This steals room from the back.
This is a very pretty interior with white leather and red stitching.
The dashboard is covered in leather too.
However, a bit of criticism. It feels like the previous generation modern.
I'm comparing it with Audi, who has two big screens in the A6, A7, and A8 for climate and infotainment.
Range Rover has this with the Velar and new Sport.
This one has a small screen for climate control, surrounded by many buttons.
It's not as modern as you'd expect.
Still, we're not walking away for this. What then?
We get to choose from a hard, very hard, or extremely hard suspension setting.
It has adaptive Dynamic Damper Control.
The differences aren't big. I think the spread could've been nicer, to make it more comfortable.
Like Martijn said, you want a normal mode that's good for whatever.
BMW can do that very well.
Plus a Comfort mode that's softer for longer drives.
If you're going to hoon it, there should be a Sport mode. That one can be hard.
These are small details that could've been better.
This isn't a reason to walk away.
In the rain it's a cat you need to handle with gloves.
When you switch ESP off and drive it as a rear-wheel drive car, you have to know what you're doing.
592 hp on the rear wheels makes it go sideways.
When you put ESP in M Dynamic Mode (MDM), it works for 50%. It's a sport mode.
It wants to step out. The disadvantage is that it engages ESP while I'm countersteering.
In all-wheel drive mode you feel it puts power on the front wheels with ESP off,
while I seem to have the drift under control.
I may be wrong. Maybe the electronics were saving me; it's possible.
These details could've been better.
I'd like a mode in which it's a rear-wheel drive car with partial ESP.
I could have a bit of wheelspin, maybe a bit of drifting, and keep going.
You can battle the car more without being on your own.
Sometimes it's nice to have the car for a longer period of time.
You can think about how to explain the benefits of all-wheel drive in the M5.
We found the spot to demonstrate.
Imagine going to the beach and you're stuck with your M5.
I'm going to experiment. I can put it in rear-wheel drive.
I'm in the sand. I got here with all-wheel drive. I'm going full throttle; that's fun.
I'll close the window. That may be smart.
That didn't work. Next, 4WD Sport. I'll close the window again. Watch this.
Yes, launch control.
It does get that. We recommend a different car with launch control in the desert or on the beach.
That's important for people in Dubai and Qatar. - Very important for people in Dubai and Qatar.
They probably know you should choose a G-Class.
You feel the car vibrate because there is sand in the wheels.
Again. Martijn already removed some.
I can't talk normally because the car is vibrating too much.
It's like a massage seat. Let's take some sand out.
It'd be fun if you shoot that; a behind the scenes.
It was still in 4WD Sport. - I'll do slow motion with some music.
We have a compressor with a 12 Volt connector here.
This is the first...
You'd think it has a long cable.
I'm wondering if it blows when...
You have to be patient.
You have to be very patient.
It'll come out when the wheel spins and moves sideways.
It should have fallen out now. Are there less vibrations?
That's how you fix it.
I still have to talk about the price.
The base model is 160,000 euros. The press release says leather upholstery is standard.
This First Edition is 19,500 euros extra.
This car is 212,500 euros because of the nice screens and all the other gadgets.
Probably a lot. BMW didn't give me a list this time. That doesn't matter now.
Is it expensive or is it a lot of money? Both.
This is the price for these cars in the Netherlands.
We wanted to end the video by joking this is a car for your wife, but you get to drive it too.
It's possible to bring kids and stuff, but it's still a cool car.
It's like a Cayenne or X5, but as an M5.
We started hooning and then I saw it's a lot of fun.
It offers a lot of options, but it doesn't have some other options.
Rear-wheel drive with 50% ESP. It should have things like that.
However, drifting it and accelerating from an intersection in 4WD Sport are fun.
It's insanely fast and maybe more fun than I thought it to be this morning.
There are things I'd like to be different. It's a very cool car, though.
