40k miles in 36 years . not a daily driver and never will be. they are out there but driven so rarely that you have to be in the right place at the right time to see one. 10+ years since I have seen one on the road.
Almost pulled the trigger on one of these, 1988 off lease for only $18k ATT but the warped front rotors and 10 MPG scared me off so I kept my 83 533i. It sounded exactly the same as here.
That is how it's supposed to be. Don't forget the engine in this particular car, the M5 us-spec S38, is an engine built for racing. It is a slightly de-tuned version of the M1's M88 engine, but still the same core and pure motorsport heart in it. It really is a beast!
Checking back on this video after 2 years because I finally bought an E28 M5. Miss you Eric.
The sound of this thing melts my heart
That sound is Intoxicating...
What a FANTASTIC video !!!! e28 my favourite bmw , absolutely superb review !!! 10/10
I am lucky to own the 5th North America e28 m5
just love these cars, many thanks for sharing this awesome experience

The unique sound of the engine
One of my all time favorites, and great video. I would LOVE to see more videos shot in this same format.

Gorgeous, I’m not far away in Columbus, IN.

Always wanted one of these.

One of the greatest sports sedans ever made .
The E39 M5 is the greatest sport sedan ever made.
Sehr schönes Auto, hatte einen leider durch den Kat kastrierten M 535i, trotzdem die BMW's aus dieser Zeit sind spitze.
The BMW community really misses Eric. Just not the same, no content like this since he left us.
I currently own to e28's myself best car made imo still looking for a m5 tho lol
I have 535is. Poor man's version, DeCat and EAT Chip. My 5th early 5er and my second is. They are the best sedans ever made, along with Mercedes W124.
There’s one in my backyard that needs a lot of work and I’m on the fence...god that straight 6 is just beautiful
pick it up. fix it at your own pace.
Art all the way bmw
Love it! Great car.
Cool, i have one :)
the big bumpers absolutely kill the styling on this car
Absolute beauty...but those huge bumpers🙈. Guessing that's US specs?
Are any of them Euro spec engines?
Lol those American bumpers. America has some weird rules.
Now i understand why people like so much this M5.. jesus

What make and size of tyres on on it. 😀👍
Eric, where is your route that you drive? I need to take my M2 there!
Crying on the inside
Exhaust note is very M30-esque
yeah thought so too! maybe it's the video, all the others m88/s38 i've heard here on youtube sound a bit more "metallic"
the engine is noisy, is there any problem?

@@samuelpenahc how do you compare the E30 M3 with the E28 M5?
problem is with you buddy its a race car and he is giving it the beans
Hey it was Car and Driver not R&T.... that's kind of an insult to what C/D used to be....
Noi amerikan mallin puskurit ei oo oikein hyvännäköiset muuten on auto hienossa kunnossa.
