More than positive, the unanimity goes further, all those who try it seem very surprised, with poetic epithets almost striving to describe the sensations that they did not expect to be so superior to everything known.Road Test of the Year 2021: BMW M5 CS
BMW has thrown the kitchen sink at the M5 to make what appears to be the ultimate super saloon. Jack Evans finds out if it is.www.shropshirestar.com
"But for now, the CS is a prime example of what generations of development can do. Its combination of performance, usability and unending charm are what highlight the CS as one of the all-time greats. It’s been a privilege to have it in this year’s test."
The journo reviews have been unanimously positive. I really must find the opportunity to drive this machine. I think it could just be one of Bavaria's very best.
I only had a brief drive in thee M5 CS. But it was nostalgic throwback to the my very first E36 M3 experience from almost 25 years ago. Except everything tuned to a 11. Car felt so taut and buttoned down. I wasn't even looking for one, but it was instant love and I am now. But it is really a pity you have to get a CS now for what every M used to be.
Camisa and Randy are are awesome reviewers. I have only heard only great things about the Blackwing from people who have driven one.
I also like them, especially Pobst, but not this video. I believe that Cadillac is great to drive, but I don't believe it's on M5 CS level.
I would like to see more reviews and comparisons on the Blackwing. It appears to exhibit some old school charm. And while Randy's an exceptional driver, I'm really rather surprised his time with it bested that of the CS's.
Why are you surprised? CS is just another M5 Comp with slightly more power, with slightly adjusted suspension and steering, forged wheels, M4 seats and only 40 kg lighter. Here is the only test where both cars were weighted and dynoed. In short both testers are not impressed. The car is good but not for that price tag.
Thanks for your expert opinion, you found a video (one - 1), where they think the same as you, there is no one more blind than the one who does not want to see
Thanks for your opinion.
Too bad there are so many victims of ///Marketers who cannot understand one simple thing - an M5 comp has more upgrades compared to an M5, than an M5 CS compared to M5 comp. And you pay 60K more just for some steering reprogramming, engine mapping, M8 shocks and absence of soft close doors that weigh a maximum of 3 kilograms... on a 1.9 tons car but you get full electric uncomfortable seats without ventilation from M4))) And mostly you pay for a worthless CS badge) What is CS? Club Sport? Competition Sport? Coupe Sport?)
Hurray!!! Another member of the M5 bashing brigade, we've missed you guys. And a huge congratulations, you've found two videos ????
Are you blind or are you a stupid kid who cannot read? Where am I bashing on the base M5 or M5 Comp?
Are there people who are actually paying such a "market adjustment"?
!!
I read the car sold, I don't know for how much. The market for the M5 CS is currently around 175-180k. Funny thing is long term you will probably lose less buying a CS for 170k than a regular M5 for 100k.
