Dude, he totally went OFF on the car for like the first 5 minutes!!

But, I know what he means. You don't get to drive these high speed cars anymore, they drive for you. No fun.
However, that lap was HOOOOTTTTTT!!!! Love that 4 wheel drift!

Huh.

that shit kinda pissed me off....i like the new m5? and i think alot of other ppl do too....maybe hes too fucking old to know how to work the new technology?

thats what i like alot of technology with a badass engine

superdeadman · 08-26-2005, 03:50 PM

the greatest ///M5 video ever!

loved it all!

i think its nice how he shitted on the car because it's all true and i wouldn't want to go ahead and press some knob in the middle and then press it again, and again to change a station.... that's how you get into accidents!!! and wtf --- press the volume and the station goes away?! !!! and it is also true that smg on bimmers blows unless you give it some gas.

awesome video, awesome!
and i bet he will outwork you in car technology on any given day!

plus i can't tihnk of many youngsters who have enough money to afford the ///M5

He loved it in the end...he compared it to an F430 and he has called that the best car hes ever driven...

"...wanna take it on, dont bother...doesnt matter what you got, doesnt matter what you have driven, this is quicker, faster, its more asthonishing...."

BMW hits another masterpiece...

Bottom line - the performance woo'ed him, but he didn't get the technological gadgets.

If you're up to date with current technology (read, of the newer generation) I'm sure the i-drive is a pretty good system. Think about the people who can afford these cars though; either too old to understand the tech, or too willing to pay someone else to understand the tech for them. It's not really the right audience to showcase complex technology.

So basically what we're hearing here is that the engineering is unbeleivable, the engine is a goddamn masterpeice, everything about the parts of the car that actually do the driving is great..

But the design aspect of it, the electronic gizmos, the interior, and the styling and looks are complete trash.

Thanks bangle, nice job ruining BMW's engine and unbeleivable performance engineering with your ugly ass looks and shit designs.

you do know bangle did design the e39 also.........
