BMW M5 - Overview

If the driving of the BMW 5-Series sport sedan isn't enough for you, there is always the M5. The BMW M5 is a high-performance super-luxury version of the 5-Series sedan and was developed by BMWs Motor Sport division. At its introduction in 1984, it was the fastest production sedan in the world. Now in its fourth generation, the M5 was last redesigned in 2005. The new model comes with such innovations as a head-up display and Electronic Damper Control.

The M5 has comfortable seating for five and a powerful V10 engine. However, its iDrive controls and performance settings can be complicated to use. Look elsewhere for a simpler cockpit experience or a flashier exterior.
