Great stuff Tim. This is a fantastic car. I hope you've booked your long term loaner M8 GC once the press cars are available. That car is going to be epic!
Back then in 2003 my dad owned new M5..It was a beast..It did 0-100 km/h in 4 seconds..Top speed 300km/h+..But he had to sell it because it's fuel economy was really bad...Not tryna look cool..Just saying that older BMW's were good too..
I love BMW. I'm barely starting with "real life" so all I could afford was an e90. But boy, so far I'm so happy I did. They do require more maintenance but nothing too bad if you're willing to work on it yourself. Hopefully one day I can own the top of the line M5. Cheers mate!
I saw a new M550i in front of me on the road today here in the US. Sweet car! But I have to hand it to you Shmee, even with your fast cars you really do a good job of respecting the other drivers on the road and know when to go full throttle and when not to. This guy was tailgating the person in front of him and driving like a complete lunatic!
I've driven both an M5 and E63S. E63S is much louder and more entertaining. Presumably this means that the M5 has better sound insulation and is aiming for comfort,
One of the best cars in the world. It's fast, but also comfortable. It's sporty, but still have lots of space. It's kinda allrounder and perfect daily driver.
Great to see you in Germany here Shmee! Just a quick heads up you were cruising with 100 km/h on the autbahn you can easily go 110 without a penalty due to the 10% tolerance! Cheers from Hannover!
Afaik, the tolerance is 3% over the measured speed. But clearly you cannot be certain, how exact the measurement of the speed camera ist and how exact your speedo is. But - looking at the fines - going 10kph over is certainly nothing that will get you in big trouble if in any trouble at all - I agree. And furthermore getting caught going up to 20kph over repeatedly is not considered a major offense / crime. Meaning: If you have the spare cash, you can go 20kph over (outside of cities) with rather low consequences.
Personally my fav. car that you have it's the 675 LT and It's one of my fav. cars of the world so please don't sell it! Apart from this, thank you for this video
Are you listening just to Dennis Lloyd on purpose? "Nevermind" has been my favorite tune for quite a while and both your G30 M5 videos lift my mood by a ton when I hear you play it
the views on that video ( the collection ) shows me a lot of ppl fell for the click bait :D ( saying it's "my m5" ;p ) don't understand me wrong, i like your videos , and have watched allmost all ( missing some when i'm on vacation ) and enjoy watching them ( and hoping a lot more will keep coming :) ), just saying a lot of ppl probably thought it was fully yours ( not long term lone ) and just watch your videos when they see that you get a new car :D
Awesome Video I love the way you review cars, I also like the BMW brand very cool. Great work. So I am curious as to where your manager Mark is from I love the sound of his accent.
LOVE the giant bird Poop near Shmee's head on the left window....well done cleaning before the shoot...(that looks likes it's been there for weeks its so sticky)
If you feel you need to draw the attention of drivers ahead, and the mere presence of the car isn't doing it, try a long headlamp flash (three to five seconds) to give them the information that you are there.
2.59...looks like the way to Darmstadt...they are building overheadlines on the other side of the road for electric trucks, when it is finished you need to make a review of one of these trucks greetings from Frankfurt :D (Y)
Tim, Can you tell us if the M5 can be ordered in a lightweight configuration. Such as having ‘M’ bucket seats and other light parts. Those seats look heavy. And it would be interesting to find out on a dino the maximum bhp. Great vlogs.
Some facts, from 3rd minute Tim is driving on the A5 towards Darmstadt, there is the record for the world fastest car on public roads from the 30s or 40s from Mercedes Benz. Record is still unbeaten. And the population of Frankfurt is growing in the day to over 2.1-2.2 Million people, so the famous traffic jams are just awful.
Nice video again Sir. Was wondering when you were going to showcase that M5 again. Loved that M5 safety car video you did a little while back. Quick question. Are those gas prices what I think they are? Is that 1.56 per gallon or liter? Much lower there then here in the states. Is that in Euros? Just looked it up and 1.56 euros equates to 1.81 US dollars.
I've found a really straight autobahn while collecting my car. It's the A6 between Speyer and France. I've done 205kph GPS speed on my mx5 supposed to max out at 191kph... could have done a little more, maybe 210-215 but a morron decided to go on the left lane at 130... of course I was down hill going back to France.
I live not far from you and have a total of about 30 yrs in Germany. They DON’T move out of your way like they used to. Daily on my no speed limit road to work countless drivers are in the left lane driving 90-110 on empty roads!!
Oh Please for heaven's sake, don't part way with that lovely British track beast especially in that color spec. Very rare and will go up in value in years to come. You certainly mack out in a super sleeper saloon like the M5. practicality all with a dose of sportiness to stretch it out on the motorway.
BMW M5 or Audi RS6/RS7 or E63s? Personally I would prefer the Audi's but I would definetly love to hear your opinion shmee or a comparison video. Shsquad! Keep up the great work
Tim, I love your work in the video-department. I really do. There is, however, one thing I'd like to ask. What is up with the tablecloth shirts? Pattern shirts do not do well on camera and you would do great in a pale blue or white.
Hey Shmee, with 1.2 million subs, how often do you get called out in public? It would be so cool to just run into you sometime, but I can't imagine that you come to Michigan, USA very often!
bless up #Shquad for the gift that is today eh! that M5 would be a great sedan to rally around in I am sure, thanks for the update Tim, see you next video brothers n sisters! 8^)
Really enjoy your videos, though you are not helping me at the moment! I’m trying to decide between the E63 and the M5 and now you have me leaning back towards the M5! Do you have a personal preference between the two?
Go and drive both and you are able to make a choice between both. The differences are so small that you can only make a choice based on your personal preferences.
Shmee150 Thank you, I’ve driven both and loved both for different reasons! I am test driving both again as you say they are both great cars! The E63 is a visceral experience that is a joy and the Estate version has real advantages as I have a young family. That being said, the ride quality was not quite as ‘wife’ happy in comfort as I was expecting! The M5 is defiantly more refined and a more complete car in my view but storage space wasn’t as great (maybe not a dealbreaker as it’s still a big car) and the driving experience was not quite as exhilarating as the E63, but I feel that I have to try the M5 again to ensure that comment is fair! Argh these hard decisions, what a tough life! 😃
Fake engine sound? Is it fake or just a module that spread the real engine sound through the speakers? If they make a module to just spread out engine sound in the cabine through the speakers because of isolation, then it is ok! But if they make a fake sound just like a song on player, then.. thats really bad.
I thought they did this because they do so much noise isolation in the cabin but they only want to pipe the engine sound and nothing else inside the cabin... unless someone can provide some more insight otherwise.
Frankfurt!? Holy im living there... im running on the streets since that day i have heard that youre in germany..... but never have seen u :((. In 2 Days i have my 125ccm Motorcycle wanna race against youre little MCLaren? :"). I met u once on the Trackday... what a day
Hey Tim, I know it has nothing to do with cars but... How does it feel to fly in the A380? And if this M5 was yours, would you increase the power maybe to 700-750 HP?
So the sound is as loud as they are allowed to, but what about car from Ferrari, Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Mclaren? Don't they have those regulations?
With an extra 3,000km on it in just a couple of weeks, let's take the BMW M5 for an Autobahn blast to talk about how it's going so far!
Great stuff Tim. This is a fantastic car. I hope you've booked your long term loaner M8 GC once the press cars are available. That car is going to be epic!
I swear you moved to Germany just for the Autobahn
+stubones An M8 GC will be the ultimate in 'baller transport', can't wait to see what they do with it.
+someone hackme It feels like it, but that's no bad thing!
and another thing.. is it possible to get hold of an Alpina B5 saloon and drive them back to back for a comparison?
That E39 M5 at the start though :)
Bruh, my dream.
Harry Page I
+lee nevin I would rather have seen a video for the E39.
Damn that E39
BluePanda 1jan i know right it's awesome
Back then in 2003 my dad owned new M5..It was a beast..It did 0-100 km/h in 4 seconds..Top speed 300km/h+..But he had to sell it because it's fuel economy was really bad...Not tryna look cool..Just saying that older BMW's were good too..
Best thing about your BMW M5? Probably the fact it's free.
Thank god.. shmee is into the bimmer life now...
I was literally sitting at my desk at work wondering why Shmee hadn't uploaded a video yet and BAM! Thanks Tim
No worries, thanks for watching as always!
Shmee150 No, thank you sir. I’ll keep on watching all the way from Kenya!
Now back to work Mr Schneider!!
shmee you're causing a productivity crisis
There's multiple things to like about that channel, but by far the best is, that you answer almost everyone of your comments! Nice work, shmee
I love BMW. I'm barely starting with "real life" so all I could afford was an e90. But boy, so far I'm so happy I did. They do require more maintenance but nothing too bad if you're willing to work on it yourself. Hopefully one day I can own the top of the line M5. Cheers mate!
Great review and content, It sounds not too dissimilar to my M4 which I feel is a great sound and let’s not forget we are entering a new age!!!
Awesome!! Keep up the great content Tim!!
Top car, top vid! Can't help but like this guy. More please.
BMW should make a M5 estate
I saw a new M550i in front of me on the road today here in the US. Sweet car! But I have to hand it to you Shmee, even with your fast cars you really do a good job of respecting the other drivers on the road and know when to go full throttle and when not to. This guy was tailgating the person in front of him and driving like a complete lunatic!
Looks like a fun car Tim, and it also looks like you are going to have some great times with it in the future. Enjoy mate!
Great journalism too.
The car is so stunning, exhaust could be a bit louder!
not rly.... cause of regulations it just cant
I've driven both an M5 and E63S. E63S is much louder and more entertaining. Presumably this means that the M5 has better sound insulation and is aiming for comfort,
Rs6 with Miltek sounds way better than any Bmw or amg
Tadas Simasevicius dude, it’s about the exhausts the manufacturers offer. Any car can sound awesome with the right aftermarket exhaust.
cant compare aftermarket to stock...
One of the best cars in the world. It's fast, but also comfortable. It's sporty, but still have lots of space. It's kinda allrounder and perfect daily driver.
Shmee, is a genius.
Excellent as ever Tim. Superb car
Great to see you in Germany here Shmee!
Just a quick heads up you were cruising with 100 km/h on the autbahn you can easily go 110 without a penalty due to the 10% tolerance!

I love the M5. it would be my daily of choice no question.
Looking forward to the M5 content!
Just love this car!
I love this car!!!
Personally my fav. car that you have it's the 675 LT and It's one of my fav. cars of the world so please don't sell it! Apart from this, thank you for this video
I think you speak for a lot of people, let's do a video with it soon for sure
Plasmghost its a loaner.
No it's not Dylan, I've owned it in full for two years from new
dylan your right the lt is a loaner because tim sold his brother the coupe lol
Dylan Oppeneer totally agree
Are you listening just to Dennis Lloyd on purpose? "Nevermind" has been my favorite tune for quite a while and both your G30 M5 videos lift my mood by a ton when I hear you play it

That thing is amazing! You have a great taste, Tim!
I'm definitely very lucky to drive the M5
Awesome Video I love the way you review cars, I also like the BMW brand very cool. Great work. So I am curious as to where your manager Mark is from I love the sound of his accent.
He is Dutch :)
Hey look, it's a warrior dressed in a suit! Very nice "sleeper"
LOVE the giant bird Poop near Shmee's head on the left window....well done cleaning before the shoot...(that looks likes it's been there for weeks its so sticky)
14:58 If you mean the 8 series, then yes, it will be appearing at Le Mans on 15th June. BMW announced it.
it is awesome i like the safety features
Shquadddd!!
awesome vid as ever tim!!
Thanks for watching
coming up to 2 years since i subbed just after you got your mclaren
Appreciate it, thank you
You should wrap the 675lt a nice pearl white!
6:50 That nearly ended things a little earlier than intended!!!
If you feel you need to draw the attention of drivers ahead, and the mere presence of the car isn't doing it, try a long headlamp flash (three to five seconds) to give them the information that you are there.
Beautiful car
2.59...looks like the way to Darmstadt...they are building overheadlines on the other side of the road for electric trucks, when it is finished you need to make a review of one of these trucks
greetings from Frankfurt :D (Y)
You didn't mention the e39 M5 in the car park. Arguably the greatest M5 ever.
Tim, Can you tell us if the M5 can be ordered in a lightweight configuration. Such as having ‘M’ bucket seats and other light parts.
Those seats look heavy. And it would be interesting to find out on a dino the maximum bhp. Great vlogs.
Some facts, from 3rd minute Tim is driving on the A5 towards Darmstadt, there is the record for the world fastest car on public roads from the 30s or 40s from Mercedes Benz. Record is still unbeaten. And the population of Frankfurt is growing in the day to over 2.1-2.2 Million people, so the famous traffic jams are just awful.
Ikea run to see how practical it is would be nice ;)
G30 is a great car. I have a 530d M sport x drive, can only imagine what the M5 is like.
Nice video again Sir. Was wondering when you were going to showcase that M5 again. Loved that M5 safety car video you did a little while back. Quick question. Are those gas prices what I think they are? Is that 1.56 per gallon or liter? Much lower there then here in the states. Is that in Euros? Just looked it up and 1.56 euros equates to 1.81 US dollars.
It is 1,56 EUR per liter
No mention of the e39 5 series next to it!! Nice car tho love the new M5
Schmee, how did you get started reviewing cars and how do you get access to so many sweet rides?
you should get that E39 M5 ;)
Keep on the good work
it puts a smile while you drive it? it puts a smile to me when I watch this video hahahaa
My 320d is honest with no fake sound, this confirms that E46 M3 is the last real M powered BMW.
The M5 looks huge beside the 675. XD
Parker I like your AMG!! Oh crap wrong channel.
love your video!Tim
You were first today!
who cares!
losers like u.
the comp pack prob has the looks you're looking for :)
your specs are sick!!!
I've found a really straight autobahn while collecting my car. It's the A6 between Speyer and France. I've done 205kph GPS speed on my mx5 supposed to max out at 191kph... could have done a little more, maybe 210-215 but a morron decided to go on the left lane at 130... of course I was down hill going back to France.
Hi Guys, I’m Shmee! 😂 love it*
@6:49 nice blind spot action
M5 is dream car
Does it feel faster than the FF/GTC4Lusso on the Autobahn or on track?
Long distance driving with this car are they noisy/drones inside the cabin?
but that e39 tho.. damn the color on it
I live not far from you and have a total of about 30 yrs in Germany. They DON’T move out of your way like they used to. Daily on my no speed limit road to work countless drivers are in the left lane driving 90-110 on empty roads!!
Sick car!!!😎☀️🔥
Is that color on the bmw individual pure metal silver ??
Left hand drive Tim? You keeping it abroad? Be a bit awkward to drive here in the UK.
It was a loaner
Oh Please for heaven's sake, don't part way with that lovely British track beast especially in that color spec. Very rare and will go up in value in years to come. You certainly mack out in a super sleeper saloon like the M5. practicality all with a dose of sportiness to stretch it out on the motorway.
Would be an awesome car to do Gumball 3000 with!! Or any rally for that matter
I like the E63 S more but the M5 is awesome too
E39 M5
The fact it’s free Shmee
Name Of the Song Played At 17:02 - Dennis Lloyd - Nevermind
BMW M5 or Audi RS6/RS7 or E63s? Personally I would prefer the Audi's but I would definetly love to hear your opinion shmee or a comparison video. Shsquad! Keep up the great work
Tim, I love your work in the video-department. I really do. There is, however, one thing I'd like to ask. What is up with the tablecloth shirts?
Pattern shirts do not do well on camera and you would do great in a pale blue or white.
It's a hangover from my days working in a city office, I just like them
Hey Shmee, with 1.2 million subs, how often do you get called out in public? It would be so cool to just run into you sometime, but I can't imagine that you come to Michigan, USA very often!
199mph or 305 kmh ? haha 3:35 - awesome vid once again
Is petrol really that cheap in the uk?
As a tribute to your relationship and passion for driving in Germany you should add a “c” to your name as a fitting tribute. Schmee150!
Late but present ✋
Welcome :)
bless up #Shquad for the gift that is today eh!
that M5 would be a great sedan to rally around in I am sure,
thanks for the update Tim,
see you next video brothers n sisters!
8^)
You didn't show us the system for the 675lt that makes dropping the roof of with the key
Did u installed it?
Nope not yet... It is proofing to be a though job to remove the carbon panels.
Is the “SH X MEE ” plate number can on the road?!
Really enjoy your videos, though you are not helping me at the moment! I’m trying to decide between the E63 and the M5 and now you have me leaning back towards the M5! Do you have a personal preference between the two?
Go and drive both and you are able to make a choice between both. The differences are so small that you can only make a choice based on your personal preferences.

Argh these hard decisions, what a tough life! 😃
The E39 you failed to mention is nicer!
Shmee must be the smartest person in the world, smart.
Impressive car, but faking the engine and exhaust sounds through the speakers kind of turns my stomach. I wonder if you can turn that off?
Hardly, you need to code it out or buy a wire harness and bypass the ASD module.
Fake engine sound? Is it fake or just a module that spread the real engine sound through the speakers?
If they make a module to just spread out engine sound in the cabine through the speakers because of isolation, then it is ok!
But if they make a fake sound just like a song on player, then.. thats really bad.
I thought they did this because they do so much noise isolation in the cabin but they only want to pipe the engine sound and nothing else inside the cabin... unless someone can provide some more insight otherwise.
Karlos Losintos too much sound deadening
Antoine P I don't think it's fake..I just think they are spreading the sound through the speakers because you can't hear it from the inside much..
Love this car👌✌.
Schquaddd✌✌✌
It's cool that's for sure, but I'm going to guess you're a bit of a Quadrifoglio fan xD
It's because I have a Quadrifoglio. But I love M cars ! ;)
Frankfurt!? Holy im living there... im running on the streets since that day i have heard that youre in germany..... but never have seen u :((. In 2 Days i have my 125ccm Motorcycle wanna race against youre little MCLaren? :"). I met u once on the Trackday... what a day
So no one will mention the E39 at the start?
Hi Shmee, any futher updates on a new Ferarri?
None at this moment... There is one more surprise incoming, but it is not a Ferrari.
Too many videos . Let's miss you a little man :)
Mittelspurschleicher mit´m M5 😂👌
Hey Tim, I know it has nothing to do with cars but... How does it feel to fly in the A380? And if this M5 was yours, would you increase the power maybe to 700-750 HP?
No need to increase it :) It is fast enough.
The A380 is a wonderful plane. Great way of travelling.
Tim, do you live in Germany now?
Yes :)
why you should buy a m5 rather than an amg e 63s which you should suggest to buy a new bmw m5 competition package or new mercedes amg e63s
when is the BMW individual coverage coming??
Early July :)
Notice me tim.....Shquaaaaddddd!!!!!!!!!
So the sound is as loud as they are allowed to, but what about car from Ferrari, Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Mclaren? Don't they have those regulations?
They will have to comply to it in the future.
That's so stupid. The rules are probably made by people who don't understand anything about cars. 😒
E63S is louder. I've driven both. As far as the UK is concerned, regulation is not the reason...
Looks like a lot of performance in a sleeper.
