designers looked for inspiration, looked at the E60 and thought to themselves… “mmmm very nice”.
the G90 is not THE ugliest M car in the world but it’s definitely trying to compete in that catergory with the E60 M5. that being said, i’d still rock the touring because wagon and idgaf about anything else. fingers crossed they sell well enough that there are enough in the used market a few years from now and they’ll actually be somewhat affordable to normal people.

They managed to make it even LOOK heavy. Honestly, it looks like a cheaper version of the F90. Definitely a step backwards.

I had honestly thought I may trade in my M3 CS for a touring version, but not with these specs.

5,300 pounds, weighs more than an X5 and it’s slower than an F90 to 60. I like how it looks, but, with 717hp, I want it to be faster than a M5CS.

Yea I expected at least 2.9 but tough with all that extra weight. I guess we will have to wait for a few test run reviews.

I saw a quick short with Joe Achilles, and he seemed to think the car had brutal acceleration and was pleasantly surprised. But, I also think he was at a BMW sponsored event.

I’m a fan and my guess is that it is much quicker than the “advertised” 3.5 seconds. Joe’s driving reactions are pretty fun….giddy as a little school boy!

Not a big fan of a plugin hybrid. Hope that not all M cars follow this lead.

IMO.. It kinda looks like a M5 with a X6 front end!! lol 🤬
On another note.. I’m sure the performance will be unrivaled. The M5 will always be the king of the saloon racers!! 😊👍 Last edited by ViO; 06-28-2024 at 07:37 AM.. |
