Totally agree! Don't hate it thoughLooks ridiculous
Book me in for some help as well, I don't hate itI don't hate this. Is it time to seek professional help?
It's 2.44 tonnes, same as my X5 hybrid. Madness!
The comparison with the 911 is not relevant...
Indeed. The M5 is capable of making anyone puke on demand. The 911 isn't.
Isn't the ban in 2035?One is an electric car which can continue to be sold new after the petrol engine ban, the other isn't.
Which makes sense as the 911 is an update to a car released in 2018, the M5 is on a brand new platform which will have to last much longer.
LCI could have encorporated the electric shenanigans.It is currently 2035, but it could change to 2030 as labour have made a commitment to restore it if they are elected.
This is within the product lifecycle of the new 5 series platform.
That’s not how platform engineering works.LCI could have encorporated the electric shenanigans.
Fair enough. Then just settle on making an undesirable car.That’s not how platform engineering works.
The rear is ok but the front , the more I look at it the more I think the designer was watching Minions when he did it.Am I the only one who doesn't think it looks that bad? Ultimately the M5 is meant to be a high powered executive saloon, not a sports car. The fact it can rival sports cars in a straight line is just a fun thing.
The G30 LCI version looks better though, for sure, but opinions often change over time...
