i miss the old drive . you guys need to bring back spinelli,farah,musto kosilla and harris .
E34 is the best 5 series ever built
Beka Machurishvili hell yeah it is.
Love the styling. For me a real bmw has to have those quad headlights. This and the e30 3 series are what made me fall in Love with the brand.
2:35 The good old days when you could see out of the car without looking over a cheap-looking monitor that's been stuck to the dash.
E34 M5 and 5 series is my favorite of the BMW sedans.
I worked for a guy around 30 years ago who had one of these, and I had the pleasure of driving it several times, over empty fast country roads. I remember a fast great handling car, and would happily own one now as I would have then?
Love the E34👌
Have long wanted an E34 M5. Even more than the vaunted E39. You’re very lucky to have driven a Euro spec one as well... that HP increase you mentioned didn’t make it past US regulators at the time so grey market cars with the Euro motor are desirable... provided they’re properly documented.
They were also available as a unicorn... an E34 M5 “Touring” or wagon. Manual gearbox, 300-odd HP, sport suspension, brakes, mechanical LSD, hand built by M GmbH. Those suckers go for a pretty penny now.
Sadly, I needed a daily, hence the Chevy SS. I couldn’t bring myself to trash an E34 on country roads and gravel with my daily grind. Wrapped the SS in Xpel and it’s nice to have a little less exotic, less collectible, but still fun-to-drive car I can daily and not stress about. Obviously mine has a row-your-own 3-pedal ‘box and of course the SS is a proper RWD performance sedan in terms of handling. Baselined against BMWs, even using their chassis engineers, it doesn’t handle like an American pig; it’s an Australian-built marriage of American power with European refinement and handling.
Anyway... still want to collect an E34 M5 someday. They’re beautiful cars with a fantastic engine and the best chassis engineering you could get at that time.
Great driving and handling Commodore ss, even here in Aus, people underestimate the Commodore which was Holden billion dollar baby(apparently). Chassis is so good that even the sv6 model is a great drivers car that doesn't get much credit either way, because of HSV models that look as good as Amgs'.
E34 is my favorite M5 .my mate's father used to have one. awesome car , love the big 6inline
I love 90's cars, before that they were too primitive and afterwards they got to complex and heavy. I drive a 96 mercedes C280 and have no desire to update, even though I could.
repawnd w202 isn't very light or rigid
Upgrade to a c36 boyo.
I wouldn't mind a C36, but I never see them in my country :(
C280 ... one of the best ergonomic interiors ever. I loved those seats.
The Best Or Nothing! These BMWs are overrated in those like the M3, M5 etc
W202, W124, W210 had crazy AMGs back then! Like C36 AMG, C43 AMG, E36 AMG (W124, W210), E50 AMG, E60 AMG (W124, W210) and E55 AMG till 2001. ! Those ugly BMWs would lose to Mercedes.
Man that is a sweet unit, daytona, dove gray leather interior and throwing stars, and even amber corners!
Old one is way nicer.
Please look on my channel i just uploaded my first video of my e34 m5 restoration it really helps thanks alot
Daytona Violet is actually one of the more common colours on E34 M5's. The E34 happens to be my favourite car of all time, nothing can beat them for me, that's why I had three of them.
I love that simple beauty👍😊
This isy favourite M5 generation.
This was my dream car in 1992
I used to think the e39 was the best but over the last years i have changed my mind. Now i think this is the best bmw ever build. Perhaps even the best car.
Love the color, love the wheels!
Enjoyed it! :)
Hope you enjoyed Portugal... 😉
More importantly the new one wasn’t hand built in germany like the 92’.
M5 E39 is my favourite 😍
i own 3 E34 M5's and i love them
instantly made me remember Georgi Tevadze from "need for drive" channel
OOM-500
That guy was nuts.
Love dat purple
Nice looking car sharp
Fast meet German sedan in 1992 was Opel Lotus Omega. Second fastest was Alpina B10. Third fastest was 500E. This one was the 4th fastest even with the Euro 3.8L engine .
Classic
"this was the fastest production german sedan of its time". Not entirely true, specially during that '92 year. The Opel/Lotus Omega (Vauxhall Lotus Carlton) (1990-1992) was faster to 60 (~5.2s), had higher top speed (~176 mph - because no 155 limiter), and a more powerful engine (377 bhp).
Alpina B10 BiTurbo E34 is faster than the Lotus Omega
another e34 m5 video to add at my collection :D
RIP Giorgi Tevzadze
That guy was nuts and a genuine danger...
Not iconic because of Ronin?
@ Tonyisgaming. So you mean, without Giorgi (RIP by the way), the E34 M5 would not be an icon?!!!!! The E34 M5 was already an icon like the W124 500E/E500, and way, way before youtube was born. The E34 M5 had a racing engine in it and, was hand built, there will be no M5 like that. True car enthusiats, know that car whether they like it or not, and others do not even know the existence of M5 older than the F10/E60/E39.
No that georgian fucktard didn't do much for this cars reputation.
I think Giorgi did ALOT for the current popularity of this car as his videos are one of the most seen BMW videos in general !!!
that car is 5.4 to 60mph when running properly
Correct ,many sources always talk about 6.7 sec. to 60 mph,also is it true the 6 throttle bodies must be regularly synchronised?
RONIN 😉👍
that was in portugal, in estoril
The music is terrible. It doesn’t need Muzak.
robert plotkin it’s from 90s porn movies)))
Well okay but the fastest produktion saloon at that time would have been the Alpina B10 Biturbo . Cool video anyway! :-)
Olof Danred no, actually Opel Lotus Omega was a little faster that the B10.
The play is not normal,my 520i has less play,but the good thing is that the steering box is adjustable
Are the e34s'steering boxes adjustable?
Who is this weird guy?
Techno Violet is awesome
Stalin it’s Daytona violet, not techno.
Today's BMWs are full or issues and software glitches, even the plastics in the cabin fail.
The E34 series was better quality, but some of the aerodynamics suck. I remember the rearview mirros contantly getting dirty and the windshield wipers lifting at Autobahn speeds. Also fuel consumption on that 525 tds was worlds apart from what the factory promised.
Didn't that generation M5 come out in 89?
I thought all the 88s were e28?
Yes, e34 was from 89 to 95
Tengo mi BMW del 95 dañado y me duele mucho
WTF?!!!! Tyre technology?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unless the car has its original tyres.
superior in all ways to the new car. if it doesn't have soul, it has nothing.
Love the videos but you guys need to cut off your low frequencies, it's a few times my sub almost pops, if you need help I would be able to do it
Cheers
No comparison, e34 is beautiful. Half the size of that fat, bloated, 4x4.
the new m5 actually weights more than my 98 3/4 ton gmc serria long bed
Everybody is talking about Giorgi. He was a great driver though
The colours good on the outside but that interior looks crap in grey and the black full or half leather suits it perfectly
Where is Chris Harris
*EE SALA CUP NAMDE* 🏆
The tires are old technology and have less grip? Ever think about just getting new tires?
I'm sorry to break the bad news but the Vauxhall/Opel Lotus Carlton/Omega was faster and more powerful
sorry man but the fastest production sedan was an opel omega lotus hehe
0:11
Alpina B10 BiTurbo E34 is faster: top speed of over 290 km/h (180.2 mph)
E34 over the new one for me please
I'd still take the e34 M5 over the new one.
5.something 0-60
0:10-1:18
As an E34 M5 owner I have to say this review is bad. The after 92 340hp has 0-62 time of 5.9sec. The Chassis control on that car is phenominal.... and it grips as fuck.... you can see plenty of them tearing up tarmac on the Nordschleife and you can get sub 8 minutes in this beast stock (But after that you need new brakes). They are also pretty driftable! And that linear powerband makes it also perfect to accelerate out of corners. Something that in Turbo time is a bit neglected.
You could get 8 minutes out of the car sure but not without heavy modifications. The standard E92 m3 took 8 minutes 15 seconds.
@@lachlanbrown409 BTG vs the complete track is the difference...... you can see here a slightly modified E34 doing 8:16 BTG

God I know which one i'd have. And it's not some shitty speaker enhanced pseudo V8
In this episode Big gay Al test drives an M5
And talks about how well the old m5s' BOOT SWALLOWED ALL HIS LUGGAGE ADEQUATELY WITHOUT ANY PROTESTS-,and how his partner and their POOdle all ENJOYED THE RIDE -so to speak!, also sorry for offending anyone with this comment as it pissed me off when I see this on you tube, basically people should stay in THEIR LANE as they say in the USA, you're wondering why It's frustrating to watch , I've seen many situations where the most ironic characters do the most ironic occupations, it's just annoying especially when they sound like they knew nothing about the subject matter 1 hour before filming started.
yep you are right sir, the m5 weighs 3162 pounds. the new M5 weighs 4288 pounds. Can you imagine??? that's unbelievable..
I HAVE MI BMW DAMING I HAVE ANY PEIN
The 88 m5 isn't even the same car. You're driving the wrong car
Punkdayz I guess me you're the only one who noticed that
In Europe the e34 M5 came out in 1989 with 1988 build dates.
e34 is better :3
It was SO overpriced.
Sean Dali So were the later models
85corolla
The chief problem with BMW is the fact that their fans will pay thay much.
ahahahah no grip, modern car has better grip, mate dont review please anymore
E36 m3 is far better looking than the e34 m5, inside and out.
No, not even close.
Wasn’t meant to be .
These BMWs are overrated in those like the M3, M5 etc
W202, W124, W210 had crazy AMGs back then! Like C36 AMG, C43 AMG, E36 AMG (W124, W210), E50 AMG, E60 AMG (W124, W210) and E55 AMG till 2001. ! Those ugly BMWs would lose to Mercedes.
