Back in 2017, the M5 didn't meet with universal approval. Six years later, things are a little different
Note for reference: car weight and power data is hard to pin down with absolute certainty. For consistency, we use the same source for all our guides. We hope the data we use is right more often than it’s wrong. Our advice is to treat it as relative rather than definitive. As you’d expect, the latest M5 was the most powerful of the genre in terms of sheer horsepower but the peak torque was arguably even more spectacular.
Generally speaking, the F90 M5’s mechanical reliability record has been excellent. There were recalls in 2018 and 2019 to correct possible shorting in the transmission wiring harness and to sort out the high-pressure fuel pump which was not always properly attached to the engine, leading to cracks and leaks. The low-pressure pump developed faults for some owners too, causing their engines to die on a restart after a drive.
Carbon ceramic brakes that were standard on the CS appeared on the M5 options list. Pilot Sport 4 or Cup 2 tyres were recommended by and for owners looking not only to extract the maximum performance from their cars but also to achieve a comfier ride than that provided by the factory-fit P Zeroes. The odd tyre pressure monitoring system has conked out but that’s not exclusive to the M5 or even BMW. Some owners have heard odd clunks from M5 front ends, similar to those heard on some F85 X5Ms.
The adaptive cruise gubbins at the front of the car was heated to keep it free from snow and ice. The boot lid opening was foot-operated. The adaptive LED headlights were very cool just to look at close-ups. For some, the F90 M5’s interior was a huge improvement over the F10’s. For others, it was trying a bit too hard, but there was no denying the smartness or the sheer volume of the tech in there.
The big red M1 and M2 mode-memory buttons were a boon for those who didn’t want to have to remember their favourite settings, but the buttons themselves were a bit urgent-looking and perhaps not in keeping with the historically understated M5 style. Bowers & Wilkins audio with its illuminated ‘cyclone’ metal-mesh speakers was another flashy option if you felt the need to impress your passengers.
