Your enthusiasm is infectious, Joe!! That's why I tune in. Couldn't agree more about the X3 M. BMW needs to be called out for ruining that car by giving it a suspension that's totally at odds with its intended use. It's not a track car. I ended up opting for the X3 M40i, even though I wanted the S58 engine.
Cheers man thank you very much! Yeah I still think X3M Comp owners are kidding themselves if they think their ride is acceptable, you can't argue with £599 a month though 😉
Those wheels are unbelievable! Definitely one of the best spec M5's I've seen. Also sounds great too! Does it have the MPPSK exhaust upgrade? Eg upgraded exhaust with valves and tuning?
Hey Joe ! My name is Rick. After decades of waiting for my two 401k's to mature I've finally ordered my dream car the BMW M5 Competition. I'm 61 years old and I remember seeing the first BMW M5"s Parked on a street in Manhattan. This being back in the 1980's all those young bankers and brokers were buying Porsche 911's with a mere 180 horsepower. I saw a lot of BMW's around back then but I remember seeing a BMW 5 series with a red M and a red 5 on the front grille. The owner told me all about the 1985 BMW M5 and I was hooked. There I was January of 2022 placing an order for my M5 Competition. Got my M5 Comp delivered to me 4 days ago in all it's glory. During the wait for my M5 I saw a lot of videos stating that it no longer crackles and pops when you rev it up. I'm over here in the good ole U.S.A. and my M5's exhaust crackles and pops to my relief. I guess the noise restrictive exhaust was reserved for just a few countries. I also heard rumor that due to a lack of electronic components there would be no tachometer on the heads up display. Well I don't know about any other countries but my 2022 M5 Comp has the hockey stick shaped tachometer on the heads up display in full color. I really love this car. It's a car you never get board with. I'm going to keep this car for the rest of my life. My buddy bought an M5 comp 3 years ago and he says he still gets thrilled ever time he gets behind the wheel.Some time I get in my M5 start it up hit the M Sport button and watch the tachometer appear, Then hit the red M1 button on the steering wheel and watch the car come alive. As far as the M1 is concerned I have everything set to sport plus and rear wheel only drive. Do some burn outs and some donuts. I have all the same setting on the M2 button except I have it set for four wheel drive then I drag race. Do I have any plans for any mods? Heck yea. I'm going to have installed the loudest sport exhaust, down pipes and a one hundred horsepower tune.
I've had my '19 M5 Comp for 9 months now. Matte Marina Bay Blue on Tartufo interior. Intakes, lower downpipes and an x-pipe and it sounds ridiculously good. Carseat in the back for daycare runs and terrifyingly fast when it's just me in the car. I usually change cars every year or two, but the M5C is just so incredibly good, I have no idea what I would even replace it with. Home run by BMW.
Best car ever made, hands down. Imagine getting to drive one so so lucky Joe and I'm glad you come across as being so grateful, you make the videos so easy to watch and enjoy. Thank you
We hear you over in the States Mr. Achilles! Just recently traded in my 2016 RS7 (which I absolutely enjoyed) for a '20 M5 Comp in Bluestone Metallic. Your video summed everything I've experienced thus far. Can't believe how strong the high gears pull across the rev band. My downshifts sound like my car is being carpet bombed with grenades! I would've preferred to have the Michelin Pilots instead of P Zeros, which feel like glass slippers on cold runs but..cheers
Ur spot on when you mentioned the Tesla and it being silent. When I drive quickly I have the radio off and love listening to gear changes and the engine revving and banging 🤷🏻♂️ that’s just me. Speed is only 50% of the fun I think sound makes up the rest.
Another great video Joe. I'm a BMW first member (aging 3-series coupe owner)and inspired by you I rented the M2 Competition for 2 days last year. I was chatting with the guy who prepped the car before the hand over and shared that I was very excited about having the M2 for two days because I had been following your vids and he said him and the other garage prep guys follow you as well. I'm hoping they get a M5 comp in the range now.
I am not even looking for an M5 but I loved the video. Great work as ever, this is rapidly becoming my favourite channel. On the subject of noise, yes it has pops and bags but there does not seem to be much theatre on acceleration.
I recently got a brand new M5 competition with all options, tartufo interior, donigton grey exterior, and all black wheels. Edit: its the fastest 4 door!
@@razrramon2256 The gt63s is slower, then the m5 competition pack DSC off already did a drag race and the m5 cp won both drag and rolling races. The gt63s is second fastest tho.
2020 models have been adapted to better work with the ppf filter so the exhaust has been fine tuned when compared with the 19 cars which moved from no ppf to having a ppf without sound recalibration. The reason why it will only pop and bang a certain number of times is ecu calibration to prevent excessive wear and tear to the filter. Cheers
You are my number one reviewer, I stated earlier at some point I did reviews and I would be saying the same things that you do. I live in the US now (again), I watch reviews every day now, in between working and taking care of four really really really sick family members. So no time for me to play now, but I'll tell you thanks, I feel like I'm in the cars myself or with you (PEACE)
Hi Joe, thanks for the M5 Comp review. I totally agree that this car is the ultimate 4 seater, especially as I do have one! Mines a 2019 in Bluestone Metallic and I totally love it! One thing I wasn't sure about is why you still have the old style instrument display, mine has the new style digital dashboard?
Awesome things. I followed one for a bit in my M140i a few weeks ago and the grip and speed out of roundabouts in the wet was staggering. Like this a lot, but the blue one with these add ons would be spot on.
I have the standard M5 which I bought after testing the E63S which was too hard for daily use and the M5 Competition which was somewhere in between. For me it is a daily driver, not a weekend weapon so it has to have a degree of comfort. However even in standard form the suspension is magical in its ability to cope with undulations and odd cambers mid corner. It's not quite as sharp when you're on it but it does the daily better for me and the roads I drive. I tend to use Sport as my default throttle setting to avoid the slightly anti-social pops and bangs when I am around other traffic but it sounds wonderful and is just so fast and controlled.
It's great to hear how much you and people like Ricky from LLF know about these M cars and are really passionate about them, unfortunately I'm still blocked on Instagram I think I commented on a previous video about it but guess it's not worth going on about it any more
Liked the video so much, I let two ads play and clicked on their links, just to support your channel. I like your style in general... like you say about the M5... unassuming is the way I would describe your manor; yet, informative and engaging. You have skills behind the wheel, and you did a nice job with the camera work alone. Keep up the good work!
What a growler and it sounded at the beginning that guns were going off fabulous motor, style, roadholding, poise, just superb. Im going to congratulate you on this video at reaching the magic 100,000 subscribers. The video I was going to watch tonight 14th of June 2020 appears to have vanished but I will find it Joe I`m not missing another one!!!
Excellent video again Joe, top job as always! I’ve been looking how much some second hand ones are and they are so tempting.... really looking forward to seeing the M8 comp.... bring it on 👌🏼😎
Awesome! I have watched your other M5 videos and yet was still excited to see this upload. Great content as always, your videos always feel genuine, a pleasure to watch. I look forward to the M8 comp! Keep up the great work
I love the F90, with the new LCI that came out I think I’ve got a bit of an affinity for it. Some people dont really like the new LCI because it’s not really BMW esk but I adore it.
Joe like’s this car so much he’s prepared to forfeit his youtube career, dead the calls from BMW UK, get on a ferry with it and live in Albania, forever!!
edi seferaj I thought Albania was the furthest you could drive in Europe. Turns out it’s probably Romania? Never been to Albania but been to Bulgaria, that’s was great!
Greatest car ever? Possibly. The Alpina B5 is also a very compelling car, I guess. I wish I could split hairs in the real-life and get one of them in my garage.
Great video; fluid review & polished finish. Love the M5 - that car is just mega. A true half-way house for the M-car lineup. Can there really be OPF filters installed? Haha. Sounds great! The only thing it’s missing is the carbon ceramic breaks, as you say.
Joe, I’ve got a 2019 M5 Competition and when I’ve been in the car about 3 hours, my right leg goes numb. I have a seat pad for long trips so I can’t agree with you on the seats being comfortable for long trips. I did a 12 hour one way trip in my 2012 991.1 CS and those 18 ways are more comfortable for me with no leg numbness. Had a 2008 M3 and those seats were fine. I also had a 2006 997.1 with standard seats and those were terrible. All manual except for the M5 of course.
Great review- great car. I have the standard M5 - it’s a brilliant daily. My only complaint- not a great exhaust note - but I think that’s the case for most modern cars.
The M5 comp is the only car I know of that always looks awesome regardless of colour. I usually really dislike brown and grey on a car. Saw an M5 comp in this flat grey with a hint of brown in it. Gorgeous :). Have not driven the comp version but have driven the M5. Such a great great car. So fast, so comfortable. So much grip and poise. The M5 is usually a much more expensive car than the M3 and it really feels it. By what you say about the drive of the Competition model I would prefer the non comp M5 even though the comp does look better. No doubt a major factor behind the lack of comfort is the m performance springs. I would definitely give them a miss. I know that many will put form over function but not me. The M5 non comp still looks great. It’s one of my favourite cars. Ignoring fuel. Consumption and the fact that now and again a van will be handy it’s every car you will ever want. It is excellent at everything.. great drive, great luxury, plenty of room, amazing bowers and Wilkins option hi fi if you choose that. Alpina do a version of it. Is that even more all round capable I wonder?
Great vid as always mate. Such a lovely car. The wheels reminds me of the forged wheels I had on my Mustang. It also had milled holes in the spokes in similar way Stunning!
Nice to see another great video Joe 👍🏻 I think your right regarding the sound, back in 2004 1 of the reasons I loved Suburu's was because of the sound, to remove it the manufacturer's are removing the fun 😎
Totally agree with your sentiments on electric cars which come across as just a tool and are marketed that way, cars like this make you want to go for a drive purely for fun.
Great video Joe. Have to say I’m bonding more with my M5 Comp after 18k miles in 8 months but I’ve never achieved your 500 miles on a tank! May have passed you the other night (M25) actually in my white one.... happy to swap with your M2 Comp for a weekend any time - love the M2 comp!
It's been a long time since I saw a video when the person testing the car really share his passion. So this excellent video deserves a like, and a subscribe button hit ! Sorry for my english... I'm french...
Hey Joe. Just love your videos on the BMW M5 Competition. You really gave such a thorough video on the M5 that I bought one last January 28 2022. It is a 2022 BMW M5 Competition. Black exterior, black merino interior with the black piano trim and the Competition Y spoke black and polished aluminum wheels. I ordered it with a lot of carbon fiber. I ordered the car with the large carbon fiber rear deck spoiler, carbon fiber mirror caps, carbon fiber rear diffuser, carbon fiber roof spoiler, carbon fiber front diffuser, and carbon fiber side skirts. I found this great place where they do absolutley awesome carbon ceramic coatings. The name of the company that does the ceramic coating is Conforti ceramic coatings. They are going to ceramic coat the entire body of the car the windows, the carbon fiber, and the interior. Keep up the good work on the videos. I've seen everyone of your M5 videos on you tube and those videos you did on the M5 comp spurred me on to buy the new 2022 M5 Competition. By the way I enjoy your relaxed and proper English gentlemen demeanor.
Thanks for watching guys! What is your ultimate 4 seater?
M140i all d way
Joe Achilles I think I might replace the M4 with one later this year...miss my V10 and my F10 M5s!
M5 comp :)
The new M8 Gran Coupe looks great. I would have to go with a nicely specced one of those!
m340i touring.
If I had the money and the need for such a mega piece of kit then the M5 is where I'd be looking
Me too buddy 👌
It would be a coin toss for me with the e63s!!
I thought you said mega piece of sh#t LOL
The best car reviewer on RUclips in my opinion. 👍🏼

That car, that colour and those wheels, surely a BMW all time great!
Agree man, off the scale 🔥
What's that colour ?
Don't curb the alloys yeh no shit ! Amazing wheels, would look great in copper/bronze too I reckon
Hi Adam, I had an M5 and it looks very similar to this colour Singapore Grey
9:31 = Comfort, Joe. The word you were looking for was "comfort". ;)
Haha yeah that was the word I was looking for 😂🤦🏼
Are you sure thats a 2020 model year car? It has the old speedometer/tach. The 2020's all come with the updated fully digital display.
2019 for sure
2020 Also got Laser light in high specs
I live for the part where Joe pulls and just floors it. So awesome. How does this channel only have 112K subscribers? It should be 10x.

Totally agree on the importance of engine sound. It’s also the thrill of taking a good IC engine to red line, the power and sound building to a peak.
Have had mine for a month and enjoying it

As usual a great straight forward assessment both verbally and emotionally. You are always one of my go to video critics.
The stance & THOSE WHEELS on this M5 Comp. are absolutely sick!

wow thats the best spec one ive ever seen, love the black, the wheels and white leather combo
Awesome awesome car, that colour, those wheels, that interior, the performance and that exhaust note... wow!
Stunning piece of kit and quite subtle but everyone who looks at will know its something special. Like the clip and enthusiasm. Keep up the good work.
This is all the car you will ever need! Absolutely love the lower suspension and wheels as well. Weapon!

Are you sure that exhaust hasn't had a tweak, sounds great
Apparently not 🤷🏻♂️
Seeing this car has so many MPerformance parts there might as well be fitted some kind of sports exhaust.

One word, MONSTER
BME M5 competition truly a car amongst cars Joe can I please be your wing man?
YES I SO MUCH WANT THE M5 BMW PACK COMPETITION
Hey Joe. Just love your videos on the BMW M5 Competition. You really gave such a thorough video on the M5 that I bought one last January 28 2022. It is a 2022 BMW M5 Competition. Black exterior, black merino interior with the black piano trim and the Competition Y spoke black and polished aluminum wheels. I ordered it with a lot of carbon fiber. I ordered the car with the large carbon fiber rear deck spoiler, carbon fiber mirror caps, carbon fiber rear diffuser, carbon fiber roof spoiler, carbon fiber front diffuser, and carbon fiber side skirts. I found this great place where they do absolutley awesome carbon ceramic coatings. The name of the company that does the ceramic coating is Conforti ceramic coatings. They are going to ceramic coat the entire body of the car the windows, the carbon fiber, and the interior. Keep up the good work on the videos. I've seen everyone of your M5 videos on you tube and those videos you did on the M5 comp spurred me on to buy the new 2022 M5 Competition. By the way I enjoy your relaxed and proper English gentlemen demeanor.
Nice video Joe! BMW M5's are fantastic. Superb!!
Cheers man glad you liked it!
Joe - I'm now watching the video for a second time, to really enjoy it! sounds fantastic!!
I ❤️ my m140i and my 540i, but I think it is time for a bigger garage! What a car!
Other than the lack of aggression in the design, absolutely love this. It just lacks width. I think especially next to an rs6 it would look average
Rimstock forged wheels made in the UK 👍🙌
Legend! 😎👌🏽Brilliant video mate👍🏽
Gotta agree with every word, what a car!
My M5c has Eibach springs & spacers and looks as good for just £700 including VAT and fitting from our friends at Motech! 👍
