Bmw E39 M5 VS. E92 M3
Here’s a vid featuring two cars manufactured by BMW Motorsport. And here’s a little backgrounder on the vehicles. The first incarnation of the M5 was hand-built using the 535i chassis and a modified BMW M1 engine. Subsequent iterations of the M5 have been made from various 5-Series generations including the E28, E34, E39 M5 and [...]

Here’s a tacho video of an E39 M5 that accelerated from 0-150 kilometers per hour within 10 seconds. The sound of the engine is just perfect. You can hear the awesome power packed into the beast. Just for some basic guidelines, here is some data from the German car Zone containing a BMW M5 acceleration [...]

Drag racing on a quarter mile drag track is certainly a thrill. Here’s a drag racing vid between an 1999 E39 M5 model and a Holden Commodore SS VE. I think we all know that there are three factors that affect the result of the race: reaction time, power and traction. From the standing start, [...]

Here’s a cool racing vid of these two BMW cars that took place in the mountains…I’m just not sure exactly where because many of these videos don’t provide the location. The two-lane road sure looks like fun however. You can see how it curves and climbs – all great road for the Beast! Most of [...]

I saw this video today about the new 5 series and thought that it looks better and better ever time I see it. The video is a summary from the top exterior designers from BMW. A balance of “design beauty and masculine prominence”. The car is still aimed at the sport market ownership in my [...]

This is a great video that was clearly put together by BMW. It’s in German and would really benefit from some subtitles, but it’s still awesome. I liked it because of the spirit of the M5 driving that was communicated. The e39 m5 is of course featured right before the e60, but not driven as [...]

I just couldn’t resist – but had to watch this vid twice – Nick in his new e39 M5 put the hammer down and showed the camera man (of which I think there were two) how things get done in the beast. Lighting was awesome and the sound from his modded exhaust was sweet. Thankfully [...]

Somehow the Brits do a better job of doing car reviews. I’m not sure why, perhaps they are just better at articulating cars than anyone else in the world. Something about a British accent describing high performance cars perhaps. This video review was and still is particularly good because it’s done on the rain testing [...]

Well – here’s a vid that will surely get some people mad. I mean – Detroit is trying to show the world how it can best the M5 for almost half the sticker price. This video shows the e60 m5 against the latest Caddy CTS-v in the usually comparisons of speed, slalom and performance specs. [...]
