"A Chinese copy of itself." YES! That's exactly what it looks like, couldn't say it any better than that
I am a wordsmith
BMW have butchered their design laguage and identity in one generation.
How can a company designs the previous generation M2 (one of the best looking modern bmw imo)
then turn around and design the iX is baffling.
@TheStraightPipes you're just a Smith. Total Smiths the both of you. This is complimentary 😂
Kinda like the PS5 Slim lol
These BMWS are build for China! Says even BMW themselve!
The best part about these new cars is that they are lowering the prices for the ones I actually like
Trueee
Good point
I love it thank god
Sorry but that's actually the opposite of what is happening. Have you recently checked the market value on an E39 M5 for example?
@@ChristianC-gy1ym that’s not a car I’m considering. I’m going to buy 1-2 sports cars to keep and an suv that will be replaceable.
That really put the THX sound effect as the throttle sound. We really are living in a time.
That 100% is a ripoff of the infamous Deep Note.
It definitely is one of the times of all time.
The iconic sounds were developed by Hans Zimmer and can be switched off if you prefer.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed this lol
20+ years later and I’m not totally convinced we’ve yet eclipsed the E39 M5…
I can't get into anything that has 0 feeling from the steering wheel, every other aspect has been eclipsed.
Could you imagine if it was still being manufactured? Just updated infotainment and improved cupholders? Of course, people would complain it's slow except for the M5
They absolutely haven't
@@deansmits006Have you seen the M5 CS? I prefer over the E39 M5 in every way, though the E39 still looks good considering it's two decades old. But hey, freedom of choice is a good thing.
The taillights and rear end looks straight outta the base Camry 👍🏼
Maybe the design changes with a subscription 😒
Ya u need a subscription to even shift it in gear😂😂😂😂
Camry actually looks nicer and a bit sportier.
Major blunder imo. I'm the target market for this vehicle but really doesn't speak to me. I would choose a Lexus or a Camry before this.
@trut52 I've had a 2015 camry se that thing was sooo nice till someone hit me and totaled it and that was my first car....... I would recommend someone getting a car like that cuz the cops don't suspect a thing wen I passed them at 95 mph on a 65 mph highway that car is a car that u can go as fast as u want but do that......
Future depreciation world champion.
That title goes to the Audi Etron GT. You can pick one up for 50k now with less than 10K miles.
@@jr1885would much rather have the Audi
@@victor555117 go for it! It’s already lost half of its value so you will save big time.
@@victor555117wouldn't drive either of them. Yuck.
5300 lbs must be brutal on the wear and tear items
Most EVs that come into my shop have leaking CV axle joints, tires are worn faster, and suspension bushings crack easily especially in winter temperatures.
Not to mention the wear and tear on roads and bridges if e.v.s actually scale to large numbers
Awful.
5200lbs, not 6k (M550i is 4500lbs). Definitely heavy, but not 6k. There is increased tire wear, but fortunately significantly less wear & maintenance overall than ICE version. Longer brake life, no oil changes, spark plugs, etc.
Operating costs are ~50% less than ICE when looking at maintenance and fuel/energy overall.
finally someone that know what is talking about, Ev are absolutely amazing to daily drive
An m5 competition as a daily driver is always welcome. Still prefer the previous gen looks and design
At first, i thot this was a 3 series from the front. BMW has been killing with designs lately 🤦♂️
What`s an M5 completion? LOL
Imagine flooring the car and it sounds like thx opening
Love the new hood camera angle, always creating great content!
Let’s get Thomas and James in the backseats for the ultimate passenger experience!!! The four of them together would be the Mt. Rushmore of Canada
I mean the beef is buried, but let's not go crazy here
@@rokkimaize7333 Is it though? They actively avoid each other despite having the press car back to back frequently. Even in the episodes (I think CTR) where Thomas is on camera for them it looks forced and awkward. It's weird and sad but I think it's far from over.
What was the beef?
Here to learn the beef
Yeah what beef
Hats off to BMW exterior design team. They have managed to f@&k up every design BMW has to offer now. The 5 Series was the last good looking car BMW made that is no longer the case. Takes true lack of talent to mess everything up you touch.
Why the hell are they doing this
We still have the 8s 😅
@@Mav0585because chinese people like these designs, and they sell a lot of cars there
I mean, 8 series, Z4, 3 series are still great designs.
I think the i5 looks great
You guys are the best at reveiwing cars in the biz. keep up the good work. love ya
The production value on your videos is the best among all the car reviewers I've seen, love it!
Glad you like them!
Production value alone, you should check out Hagerty car reviews by Jason. Top Gear level quality.
The production crew that films videos that he stars in does a good job.
You haven't seen Hagerty have you?
The fact that the 4 series style grill exists mean every other BMW grill is a winner.
01:55 when the older model flashes, it’s like OMG that was so beautiful
Jesus Christ this is very disappointing, just seeing that contrast... If they continued to produce F90 for at least next 10-15 years I would have been a customer every few years. These tasteless new designs are just brutal.
I can't imagine all of those sharp angles and gloss black body cladding aging well.
You only had one job Hans Zimmer. One job..
And TOTALLY NAILED IT!!!
@@TheStraightPipes if making EV's sound like the original THX start up sound then yes, he nailed it!
How is this comment 1 day old?😂😂
@@justinthai05 I think if you are a patreaon you get early access to videos
Enjoyed your output this last year. Looking forward to seeing what you do in '24. In the meantime have a great Christmas.
honestly the best looking hyundai i’ve seen well done
Nah the Ioniq 5 is still the best looking EV besides a Taycan 😂
Halfway through and honestly don't know if this is a hybrid or electric. 98% sure it's electric but you threw me off early on. Good job.😊
I still don't know
We had some fun with that, glad it worked hahah
Came to look for this comment coz idk wtf it is 😂😂😂 electric or hybrid😂😂😂
Lmao! The expressive mode launch sounds like the old THX surround sound test back in the good old days. It has more of a haunting/sinister twist to it though. Great review guys!
When yall was gunning it in expressive mode it reminded me of the old THX movie intro 😂😂
I rented an X5 recently and it did the software upgrade overnight when we were at the hotel. Woke up to a new infotainment experience.
"sad" the only word we had to use for this thing Pipes video awesome job like everytime
Yuri hitting the boost while accelerating needs to go viral NO CAP!!!🤣
THX the audience is listening …….”do you think that’s pumped in” 😂is 😂😂😂
8:50 can you guys just give us more moment like this but no talk it’s just giving a moments for us to appreciate what magic of engine/motors can do
Nice Mighty Ducks reference! You guys are great! Minnesota native here.
The 'Hoffmeister Kink'.... luv it when I learn some Cliff Claven bar trivia when watching car vids..lol
8:05 That's like a THX intro or something 😂
lmao the Yuri launch was funny with the rocks vibrating and the boys about to launch to space
Oh boy... the 5 series used to be always beautiful....
>used to be< what a disappointment.
Sounds kind of like a Stuka Dive Bomber when you put the pedal down 🤣
LMAO Yuri got a little uncomfortable with that "Chinese copy of itself" joke.
Yuri here. I think it looks finnneeeee
@@TheStraightPipes hahahahahahaha i was joking but love you Yuri!
A BMW which looks like a Kia from the front and a Camry from the back. Great times to be alive...
I'm looking forward to the Touring. That will probably look better with those taillights.
It looks mushed together, the cs has to be 5inches wider
My go to guys for car reviews!
🙏
Hey Yuri and Jakub, do you guys like the weird shifter in this beemer?
Always loved the 5series but I really wish BMW would have kept the m550 or m560.
Yay!! Charles is back 😂
For the record, the CX30 came out for MY 2020. The Purosangue was released on 9/13/22.
I really want to know what camera car ye are using to keep up 🤔
10:28 iDrive 8.0 does not update to 8.5 and the upcoming iDrive 9 will be incompatible with 8.5. It's quite messy, considering the UI improvements that are basically just minor software tweaks.
Thanks for clarifying
Looks like a Kia cadenza had a baby with an Audi e tron
Can you please do a review of the 2024 540i with the six cylinder? A professional review of this new model has not yet been posted to youtube. Thank!
Is it available without the infotainment spyware center?
I really love this car looks great and beautiful on the inside
That pumped in audio would drive me nuts
It's customizable. I usually turn it off on long trips, but it's fun for short rides (i4).
Fun to impress people then quickly turn off
i love these reviews i hope i can see you guys at 60 reviewing in the future 😂
That’s the plan
When will we get M refrigirators?
Ugliest cars on earth award, even their fanboys can’t argue anymore 😂
Looks amazing imo
Hopefully BMW will allow you to change the voice of the entertainment system as her voice would drive me of the edge of a cliff 😂
Unrelated question…what Persol frames are those? They look nice and I’d like to get some similar glasses.
On a related note, your review videos are always on point…even if the cars aren’t in my budget. Haha
3007 vm 24 50 19 145
@@TheStraightPipes oh wow, y’all rock! Let’s hope they look as good on me 🤣🤓
There’s different sizes! Make sure you get that one for your face
Driving assist plus at 100kmh .. im sure my 2023 3 series has the same sensors but is limited to 60-70..
The E28 M5 is gorgeous!
Why have they only released the 4cyl gas version? Where the 540i & M550i models 🤔
My 2006 Malibu and 2013 Sonic have a hoffmeister kink too
That M5 CS crashed at Mpact in the Poconos. I was there he just had it in "RWD mode" and lost it. It be like that sometime
Not sure if you guys ever read the comments- I bought a set of Continental tires for my Blackwing; because they are a sponsor of your channel. When I went to the Conti website to get my rebate, there was a long list of questions on what influenced me to buy. There was TV but no TH-cam option. I found no where to attribute the purchase to you guys. FYI
“Is that pumped in?” 😂😂😂
I bought the exact car in the same color but black leather. Absolutely amazing vehicle
The whole time I didn’t know this was a i5 I was like is this electric or not lol
9:00 sounds like world war 2 sirens and air raids.
Main character energy feels like a gen z TH-cam title 😂 love it tbh
Dying when Jakub said it looked like a chinese copy of itself 😂😂😂
What were those shapes on the digital art mode, I can't be the only one who saw what I think I saw.
Did BMW license the old THX sound intro from the 90's?
Accelerating from zero in sport mode sounds just like the THX start up on a movie.
Expressive mode sounds like the THX sound at the beginning of movies
It sounds depressing just like the external EV sound it all sound nasty
What's the Tuxmat discount code!
I5 does not have RWD version eDrive40 in Canada, YET.
yo that pumped in audio during acceleration is something else 😂
sound options:
Sonic boom
Regular engine
3rd reich invasion.... perfect.
Kristallnacht?
Now we just need a "Hoyaaaaaaaa" 😂
As someone who grew up as a BMW fan and in/near several BMW models owned by my late father (my very first car was an used E36 back in 2004)... this is simply unappealing to me. I dont like the look of it, I dont like the interior, I am not a fan of BEVs... Yeah, not for me. Great video guys. Production quality is really top notch.
A tornado siren while you drive? Ok, sure!
what's the engine setup?
Literally sounds like you are driving a Tron movie 😂
DOPE THUMBNAIL
Sounds like I'm about to watch an imax film hearing it
Couldn't see myself getting this over the new E-Class
Both look pretty horrendous
We need to see the M5 Comp
Yeah anybody knows when it will be unveiled ?
expressive sound is the old thx home video sound intro one of the other modes sounds like those kids power wheels
And yeah I got the updated I Drive , so like I own the IX 40 xdrive and the other day while im driving the screen suddenly went blank then I panicked , I thought there’s something wrong with my car but then suddenly the interface turned on again but the display was different, then I called the dealership they say don’t worry it’s just a software update 🤣🤣🤣
So am I the only one who thinks that this BMW sounds like the intro sound to the THX studios logo from old movies 😂
8:09 Damn they are really using the THX theme sound here 😆
What happened to the music intro.. I used to love it.
The “Expressive” sound is the electric equivalent to the Lexus LFA sound
What the hell is happening with that grill?
Acura MDX rear tail lights?
I miss the old intros that got straight into it. I felt like I was hopping in the car and taking off with y'all 😂
To me the last flawless 5 series design was the F10 generation 5 series. It went all downhill after that coz that was peak BMW design era. They sort of came back with previous gen M2 and the 8 series which is on its last legs but damn wish BMW was as conservative as Audi when it comes to designs. The current A6 and A4 are still looking gorgeous with minimal changes.
I really like f10 too, dont know why its not popular among car people. I really like G30 too tho
@@skipijs5316 i too love the G30 gen but it doesn't look as exquisite as the F10. The F10 looked delicious and timeless and had the perfect size for a 5 series car, length and width wise! G30 model was huge! (to drive on indian roads and traffic)
Homie the g80 is bmws best design for an m3 yet. After adding an adro kit and aftermarket grille 🦍
@@abhinashpattanaik5109 oh i tought that f10 was one that became significantly larger compared to its predecessor, since it was largely built on f01 base
@@skipijs5316 E60 was bit small for me. F10 imo had the perfect size, both for the city and autobahn driving
That front FFS!
Sounds like an air raid siren
Nahhhh if manufacturers started doing pumped in audio like this and like on the corvette e-ray, I’d be so down for pumped in audio.
Why does it sound like a combination of an Air defense alert and a Stuka 9:00
That Casio crazy!
Is this thing electric or ice? I feel dumb for asking but they dnt say a thing about the motor
Back end has that '97 Camry look going for it...
