The 2020 BMW M5 Competition features BMW's most powerful production engine. Cranking out 617 Horsepower and 553 lb/ft from its 4.4L Twin-Turbo V8, the M5 epitomizes relaxed, extreme highway speed cruising more than scalpel-sharp handling and involvement.
BMW North America provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
The car stomps 99% of the cars on the road with ZERO effort. It is the definition of effortless. The technology has finally caught up and it's so comfortable you find yourself complaining about "lack of feeling". What a time to be alive.
couldn't of said it any better.
With enough road experience, karting and academic chassis design development i can ensure you that feedback is probably among the most neglected characteristics by the masses but it just changes the drive in every single aspect, even the speed you desire to drive. I've tested a few cars and some on test tracks and i can tell you that proper suspension and steering feedback makes you feel more confident on the road and also more relaxed. After driving a set of properly set up cars, whenever i drive the more mainstream "electric power steering" stuff typically employed at 90% of the car production nowadays i just feel plain uncomfortable, anxious at the road, especially when they have such such sharp, quick turning ratios. I don't think that putting a proper hydraulic power steering in a car like this is going to make it slower from 0-60 or ruin an entire mile per galon from it, making it huge and 2t certainly will but sportscars are not made for the drivers anymore, they are made to please the media and the people who pay close attention to what the media says a car is.
Everything today has that same numb feeling. I have a 2014 M6 with a stage 2 tune and it’s the fastest thing I’ve ever owned. It does have that numb feeling but 680/651 makes up for it.
Sorry to rain on you guys parade but I disagree, AMG's have so much emotion and drama, they're more than alive. As soon as you turn the car on and hear that AMG rumble you know youre in something special. They're fast and very fulfilling to drive and own. Yes many cars are so numb that its boring to drive them but if you ever driven an AMG you wouldn't say that. I'm proud owner of 3 AMG's and I love them all.
Talkditings dem that is true. I had an older 2003 SL 55 AMG and it sounded and felt great. Although, I have no idea what a 2019 feels like but I’ll take your word for it. Mercedes usually gets it right.
I love how in every M5 piece, the E39 always gets a nod.
There's a good reason for it
It set the standard 20 years ago, and it's still the one to beat.
Because the E39 was the last great BMW sedan
@@pontiacGXPfan tell that to the e60 with the one and only legendary v10
@@AdiiS a massive engine doesn't necessarily make for a great sedan
Accelerates harder at speed is likely due to some boost by gear algorithm that restricts torque at lower gears/speeds.
VW does this with the DSG transmissions in order to keep the transmission intact at lower gears. A lot of the "turbo lag" complaints that journalists and critics talked about in first and second gear on the GTIs and Golf Rs is just power being limited because the cars produce a lot of torque with those small twin scroll turbos.
diz_ - it’s not just for the transmission.
Mclaren does this too, for the most part, boost by gear exists because of traction issues. A mclaren 720s isn’t going to put down all 700 horses to the rear wheels at first gear, that would be stupid. Every gear is limited to a certain amount of hp and torque and it increases as you go up in gear just so you can actually put the power down properly.
@@LegendInThaMakin you are right that traction is an issue. The problem is the higher ratios in the lower gears multiplying the torque which causes the traction issues, not horsepower. McLaren also uses brake biased torque vectoring and for a car that produces an absurd amount of horsepower and torque with an open diff, boost by gear is absolutely necessary to get the power down.
LegendInThaMakin the car AWD, it’s not going to have much issue getting the power down in lower gears with less torque limiters
LegendInThaMakin That’s why their owner said the car just keep pulling at higher speed huh?
I have a 2019 M5C, in the same Marina Bay Blue no less, and let me tell you, after fitting intakes and lower downpipes, it is a world apart from stock in terms of driving experience. It comes alive. BMW should have been more aggressive on the engine note, otherwise it is a nearly perfect car. Supercar performance with massage seats, and a baby seat in the back. Finest vehicle I have owned for sure.
Exactly the buyers remorse I am feeling. Just got a low mileage 2020 same color. Exhaust sounds dead after 7 yrs in a stage 3+ RS4. Needs some work to open up the sound. The car is a monster though.
Looks like a great car to set a new cannonball record in though
This comment aged well!
Time traveler?
10.87 at 129.5 MPH - bone stock.
617hp my foot!!!! As usual BMW is talking outa their ass! That thing's got at least 660-670hp!
Buddy you were on the move in that damn thing!
I've watched the majority of your videos, and you were moving faster than some of the supercars you've reviewed with 2 doors!
I had one of these a few weeks back for 24hr test run. Man they are crazy fast and the handling is sublime with no understeer. I left it in 4wd but it felt like it was rear driven only. I took it on some challenging back roads and found it would easily keep up with my 991.2 C4 GTS, but for the size and weight of this car I find that astonishing! The car is too big for me and very thirsty on the fuel and I don’t have kids so it’s not something I would need, otherwise massively impressive.
Matt it’s so enjoyable and insightful to watch you driving cars fast on the road and listen to you sharing your thoughts! Thanks 🙏
Can’t wait until these drop in price. I have an E60 and have been in plenty of F10s, both great but the F90 seems to take everything to the next level. M5s truly are the perfect combination of everything you could want.
Alex Gray exactly
How has reliability with your E60 been? Worth it?
you're gonna miss the tactility of the e60 (e61 owner who had an f10 for a couple months)
ThatRosco458 depends on the model, my 07 530i was great because it was NA. The V8s are hot garbage. I have an f10 535i and it's incredibly reliable, smooth, quiet, and refined. Has bolt ons and makes great power but a significantly bigger car. Drove a 540i but the F90 just seems sooooo isolated compared to my F10.
I bought it with 80k, at that point the smg pump had already been replaced. I put 30k on it and had to replace the input shaft seal which is common. I wrecked the car and when I got it back I am still having issues but that was due to the accident. Many owners I know have had minimal issues but there are also many that do have issues, mainly the 06 and 07 owners. Mine is an 08 and it seems as if the 2008-2010 models are extremely more reliable. So yes it’s been worth it!
E63S vs M5 argument is getting old, two different approaches to the same problem, both deserve respect.
Isaiah Cat E63S wins because it comes in estate form as well as saloon
I had an F10 M5, test drive the F90 M5, and chose to spend $500/mo more to lease an E63S because the new M5 was very boring.
@@brandonros5519 Boring lol. M5 is better agile car than Mercedes, also beats E63 AMG S everywhere on the track drag and speed
@@henzo7087 the m5 is a more precise and performance based vehicle agreed. However the e63s is more theatrical and therefore is more rewarding to drive. M5 has always been the more track focused super sedan.
Brandon Ros the f90 is faster though
I watched a Marina Blue M5C like this run consistent 10.2’s at Las Vegas motor speedway the year these were released and I was blown away at how quick this thing was moving.
Yep exhaust sounds exactly like a 90s video game car noise.
Rumblestrip.NET nailed it! I was racking my brain trying to remember what it sounded like.
It sounds like you cannot afford one!
@@miketheman4341 What a stupid comment. How would you know if he can afford it or not
@@miketheman4341 he's not hating, he's stating facts
@@miketheman4341 Do you even know that it has fake noises pumped in through speakers?
You can hear the fake exhaust pretty prominently unfortunately. It really kills it
It's fairly easy to get it coded out.
you can use bimmercode and code it out
However, it sounds not that bad from the outside
I was wondering what that noise was
It's kind of killing my raging... But yeah I'd like a little more natural engine and exhaust note.
Love how you can customize the settings. Genius.
I watched a hours of TH-cam videos and heard all the complaints. Still went out and purchased a brand new M5 (and X7) last weekend. Couldn't be happier. 😁💜✔️
did you get the 2020? does it sound good? how farty are the overruns?
E38 7 series was 196 inches long. This M5 195.5 inches long. So...M7 here.
Cars are getting bigger everywhere. It's just how it is bro.
cars went from small to huge to tiny to medium to big
An e21 3 series was 177 inches long in 1975. 18 inches front to back in 45 years to account for safety standards, styling trends and technology isn’t really much to ask. Especially when comparing a 3 series coupe to a 5 series sedan. It’s not the exterior dimensions... it’s the weight.
@@Estoril_Blau agree. length is correlated but the weight is the main issue. wheel base too. fat cars with long wheel bases don't dance.
Basically, yes. 5 series is now the size of older 7 series and the new 3 series is the size of older 5 series. So essentially, if you want the feel of an old M5, go look at a new M3 ... and if you want an M3, get an M2 Comp.
I had an F82 with the thick rim steering wheel and I could tell that the extra padding on the wheel really killed most of the steering feel. If I rested my fingers on the backs of the paddles I could feel a lot more coming through the steering wheel. I now have an X3M40 with the thin wheel from 2018 and the steering feel is very good (for a modern BMW SUV). You can feel the front wheels and you get a bit of information from the road too. I think BMWs thick wheels, while they look and feel amazing, kill the feel
Every BMW M5 Competition engine is "cranking out" nearly 700 hp on the dyno. Just forget this stupid "617 hp" number. Even the predecessor M5 was also way more at nearly 650 hp then only 560 hp.
This car is just the best car you will find for its purpose and for that money! It's crazy fast, it's super comfy, it has world class build quality, but of course it's not a light two seater supertsports car!
M. Farahs annoying critizism at the end of the video is quite irrelevant, because no serious customer will take a M5 Competition to racetracks for "club sport" events! The customers just want a crazy fast car, which is absolutely save whatever you do with it, because it can handle all steering impulses very well! If M. Farah really hoped a M5 Comp. would be "lightfooted", than he must be a kind of a "dreamer"!
I'm glad I have re-subscribed, I have a lot to catch up on!
What a beautiful road. Any plans on doing a One Take with the AMG GT 4-Door, Matt?
O-60 in 2.8 seconds??? Holy crap that's fast
Great video Matt.
Reminds me of the old days...
Thanks for the heads up on those plate holders, just bought 2 of them for my daily and forwarded the Instagram page to a friend with a few cars.
This car is amazing, there is really nothing else you can ask for in a car.
Please do a One Take of the E28 M5, the OG that started it all!!!
There is a great motoring anecdote that needs to be told right there at 5:13
What stands out to me the most, is how much more positive Matt was about the F10 M5...maybe the F10's hydraulic steering, DCT and RWD are the reason.
Good morning y'all. Just started work and The Smoking Tire is great with coffee, thanks Matt.
1:30 “inside the hot part of that V” ... that sounds nice.
Anyone else like to guess if it’s gonna be Matt or Zach reviewing the car before you click on the video? (Kinda easy game though, Matt always drives the really cool ones🤫)
Outstanding review. Love that car! You’ve gotta review the M3 CS!
"Competition" car with no feel. What a world.
what fell you need if you push it to redline one time per year? all bmw M cars have great handling for street,one of the best of all cars
@@raivons You are not sure what BMW used to be all about are you? That used to be all BMW was about, now M cars are like AMGs - missiles in a straight line but that is it
@@ChaosphereIX no they handle great too. But they take the driver almost entirely out of the equation with little to no feedback or need to small inputs/adjustments anymore.
There's not a whole lot of point in going fast if it doesn't feel fast or fun. Unless you're gunning for Le Mans
@@raivons no point in spending that money on something that is completely synthesized. BMW is now 95% image. Their only saving grace is the M2.
@@ChaosphereIX exactly!! The M cars used to be for the driving enthusiasts....comfort was secondary. Now there are more wives and soy boys driving these than enthusiasts. BMW is one of the biggest sellouts in the history of trade. Its so bad that I actually feel better about the X5M/X6M than I do the M cars because an SUV couldnt be what an M car should be...so there is no shame.
So is there a price difference or discount from your channel or not ?
That's supercar fast but it's a 4 (or 5) seater car and has soooooo much luxury and tech.
Crazy stuff.
I love how you and Bozi went up there together and then just drove around separately lol
Who's Bozi?
Dude you're mobbing so hard in the drive-by shots like omg
Xdddf
The Up & Down cursors on the shifter are for launch control , the jump woulda been significant if you used em. Love your videos tho keep em comin man
The fake engine noise thru the speakers is awful.
@@jasonbanas2899 The active-sound-design-shit started with the M5 F10...other cars like E63AMG or RS6 don't have stuff like this and sound much better, also inside...shame on BMW M (i own a E39 M5 supercharged and a E36 M3 track car, both car sound so much better that the M-Cars today)
At least it goes fast
Agreed, not even a good fake sound, like a bad video game sound.
I don't know if the sound changes over time, but mine doesn't sound nearly as bad as everyone complains about.
If you don't like it, it's easy to turn it off in software, but then the car is far too quiet
About to purchase on from Carmax tommorow so excited!!
Great review awesome car!
This was the first time that Matt's intro sponsor is something I'd consider buying.
@sanju2 That's too bad. The idea is good at least even if the quality isnt there yet.
Good to see Matt in a car that fits him well.
I think you have the best test of these BMWs
I love it wow didn't know it was that fast!
Bad ass Matt love the new M cars especially the competition
Had mine tuned to 885 and 850. Why does that not have the 2020 instrument cluster mine has?
Effective use of torque. Do you know the difference? Torque determines acceleration not horsepower.
So happy that the latest videos have had Matt in them since I stopped watching one takes since he quit doing them.Sorry no disrespect to the other guy but its really hard to get to Matt level in reviewing cars because Matts been doing this for over a decade.
dope weightlloss matt
Hi Matt , great video as always is it much faster than the e63s thanks
So what super-saloon would you recommend?
Video quality increased.........!!!!!!! Also @3:24, the car was going so fast it looked as if the scene was sped up considerably.....but it wasn't D-ZAM!!
I just put one of those silicone plate frames on my wife's new car, really nice product.
Good to hear, just ordered a couple for my daily!
Ar those...ar those the speakers I hear ? Cuz from the outside almost no sound
What type of Dillon Optics are those brotha?👍🏾
Its a missile on road, does the job effortlessly. Kudos yo bmw.
Any idea where he filmed this? Road looks amazing
Matt Farah watch game STRONG. So far I’ve seen a Kermit, Batman and now the new PEPSI 🥰
Would love to see video of the speedometer and the tachometer embedded in the video. Would add another layer of coolness.
I know you said it is different from the E39 given it's bigger, has a very different build philosophy behind it, and reflects a completely different era of design...but how does it compare to the E39 M5 in terms of the emotion and driving gratification? Does it have the same effect 2 minutes into driving it where you are like "holy crap, I am driving something very, very special that 20 years from now people will look back so fondly on"? How much does the lack of 'connectedness' detract from the total package?
Matt, I own the new M340i and a Charger Hellcat... would this M5 blend everything together for me?
As someone who has driven this car I can attest it accelerates faster the faster you are going. It’s an insane cat
In 2005 I bought a 2005 bmwM5, smoked everyone. It was a speed bullet, the e55amg was it's competitor at the time, but the BMW was more a race car and sounded better. Am serious thinking about going back to m5. I graduated to ferrari
I want to see this compared to the Audi RS6.
The RS6's brakes wont catch on fire if you do a track lap.
CarWatchCoffee tracking this seems like a waste of time. This is a luxury autobahn stormer. For $120,000 you can get a way better track beast
@@manahatter Aren't carbon ceramic brakes an option? Wouldn't the car cost less without them too?
Eck this car is so fat carbons will be molton orange too.
@@manahatter You have no fucking clue about the new RS6! Greetings from Ingolstadt, Germany!
My dream car right here
That engine note sounds 100% synthetic. At least the rest of the car is a huge improvement over the awful F10. Now, if they only made a Wagon again!!
At least you could get the F10 in manual
White Peony here in the US. Unfortunately, ALPINA does not sell their B5 wagon here.
TheJacobShapiro true, however, to an E34 3.8 and E60 M5 6MT owner, F10 6MT is of zero interest.
The f10 wasn’t awful, the tuning potential on that thing was nuts.. didn’t take much to put it in the 700hp range and walk supercars.
That’s how I remember the f10 anyway. A 4 door sedan super cars were often scared of.
I wonder if you can change the exhaust sound in the infotainment system..?
I need this and a widebody hellcat charger in my garage. Ultimate super sedans!
Cant ignore the rs7
DevPack Agreed
Be interesting to hear how one of those Widebody Hellcat Chargers would compare to this on those roads!
I think the car sounds really good from the outside.
it's got AWD and it still weighs 100 pounds less than the old one. nice!
Always complain about the noise on these but in person, the competition sounds insane maybe for 2020 they changed the exhaust or something granted the one I heard had the titanium M exhaust on it
Those fly by shots might have been the fastest yet.
Drove one of these up the 101 last year. Extremely fast but has a little too much tech for me. It’s also HUGE.
Maybe this is the M7 people asked for in the past.
It's also numb
3:25 that thing is MOVING
Plain and simple Badass car!!
That red NSX at 01:23 .... is that gonna be in a future one take episode?
did you forget the RS also works on EPS.. the point of the M5 is to be somewhat isolated.
I gotta get one of those some day... It really needs an exhaust system though
this is the best car from BMW in 2019.. well done BMW
The interior is nice like that off light blue seats
Would you rather have a 2020 GT500 or M5 competition? I can't believe the M5 weighs less.
What is the name of that road and where is it located?
Hi Matt. How would you compare this to the E63S you drove a while back?
Merc was more fun
TheSmokingTire but which was faster
Even at 4200 pounds the power to weight ratio is amazing!
Turner motorsports. Amesbury,Mass. Impressive BMW mechanics!
Matt, this or CTS-V?
Gets to 60 in the 2s*
The current M6 and the V10 M5 are the best BMW sport sedans they have produced. I wish they were barely reliable.
The new M2 Competition is the best “M car” BMW makes. It’s balance is unmatched.
Nice orange boy Matt 😎
LOL JRE on the MMI screen right at the drive-off
This is the ultimate DD
I dont get it. In europe in my country bmw m5 competition costs 200k € base price, not 130k$
Who’s driving the red NSX? edit....you answered my question it’s Bozi Tatarviec. When does HIS video go up?
Also, no matter how good the ZF 8 speed is, it’s still a slush-box in my opinion? Is there a DCT option? Listen to the 1-2 up shift in the launch at 7:15. It’s all slush...sheeesh
Just dumped my Porsche 911 S for this car. Not one single regret, ever, at all...no way, no how. The driving experience is so so so much better than Porsche. The M5C is the finest car I have had the privilege of owning. Destroys everything I see on the road PERIOD. What's better is no one has a clue, unless they know...and if they do it is nothing but respect.
Joe rogan experience with Dan aykroyd on the radio, nice
This is either a 19' or a pre-production '20 since it has the older digital gauge cluster.
Love that color! Is it Belarus Blue?
It’s a beast but my heart will always lean towards the E63s
Sold me on the plate holders
I was wondering what engine Glickenhaus was using
