Watch how the BMW M5 has evolved from the very first E28 M5 in 1985 to the F90 M5 in 2018.

Cool video. Thanks for posting. A bit odd that they skipped over the e39 summary towards the end? That's the greatest M5!

Mani59 · 12-21-2017, 03:03 PM

Got to be the E39!

SpenceRx · 12-21-2017, 03:09 PM

E28!

Coops90 · 12-21-2017, 03:11 PM

Hard to argue with the e39. Not driven any others mind.

Do lust after an s85 though

ECSTuning · 12-21-2017, 03:31 PM

Ooooo the sounds!

JustChris · 12-21-2017, 03:34 PM

Lovely video.

M5

'93 M5, Avus blue please.

jaehshim · 12-21-2017, 03:43 PM

E34 M5 5MT hands down, a fully hand built gem
then the E39 M5, another beautiful M car with an awesome V8.

No Boost · 12-21-2017, 03:44 PM

E60 for the V10 engine alone

M3 Adjuster · 12-21-2017, 03:54 PM

E39
E34
E28
F10
F90
E60

Silververtu · 12-21-2017, 03:55 PM

E60 because of the V10 engine

JMD · 12-21-2017, 03:56 PM

My vote goes to the E28 for its simplicity!

Stuff an E39 M5 motor in an E28 M5,....and get ready to call the Fire Dept,....the rear tires will light up like a match on every take off!

BoosTonian · 12-21-2017, 04:12 PM

e39

m20e3087 · 12-21-2017, 04:21 PM

What about stuffing a S85 into an e39? Now, that would be the ultimate M5.

I concur!

Arcades · 12-21-2017, 04:50 PM

Great video

LemonOne · 12-21-2017, 05:24 PM

After knowing what E28 M5 owners did, E39 for me!

Eddien123 · 12-21-2017, 05:33 PM

E60 and E39 by far.

GuidoK · 12-21-2017, 05:38 PM

e34 M5 touring. Last handbuild, only m5 touring with manual.

An e60 m5 touring with a manual swap from the US model would also be a nice thing to have, mainly because of that engine and the way it sounds....

That would add a chunk of weight to the front though, S85 weighs in at 240kg, while the S62 weighs 158kg. I'd argue the power is pretty spot on for the car as it is, as is the sound

It'd be an e61 for me personally, could fit in all my forestry gear and downhill bike. Not needing to use the radio would be another plus
