Pros Cons of BMW M5

Pros

  • Mind-bending performance that defies physics.
  • It effectively functions as two cars.
  • It is comfortable enough for daily commutes.
  • M1/M2 steering wheel buttons for customised driving.
  • Unpretentious appearance compared to flamboyant supercars.

Cons

  • Heaviest M5 ever.
  • Mixed reactions for its aggressive styling.
  • Other alluring options are available at this price point.
  • Milder engine sound compared to the pure V8s of the past.

Verdict

The BMW M5 (G90) is a super saloon that has successfully addressed the modern need for sustainability without sacrificing the M division’s soul and spirit. While purists may not enjoy the increased weight and hybridisation, the trade-off is a vehicle that offers a genuinely usable electric range for week-to-week travel and power-packed V8 performance for the weekends.
It is the automotive equivalent of Clark Kent, mild-mannered and respectable on the surface, but capable of revealing a superpower when the situation demands it. If you are looking for a single vehicle that can serve as a luxury family hauler and a track-day weapon, the BMW M5 remains the pragmatic king of the super saloon segment. It is not just a car; it is a statement that the future of performance is both electric and exhilarating.


Bilal concludes,

“Does that make the M5 a bargain? Perhaps. It isn’t as flashy or flamboyant as a raging bull, but that is the point of a sleeper. Clark Kent doesn’t want the world to know how super he really is underneath.”

Pros Cons of Audi A6

Pros

  • New-Gen Tech
  • Increase In Dimensions
  • Refined Engine

Cons

  • No Diesel Engine
  • Limited Interior Storage
  • Stiff Ride Quality 

Verdict

The new 5th generation Audi A6 sedan impresses on several levels and leaves its predecessors shortcomings far behind. On the inside the A6 will truly impress as the cabin has moved up several notches on not just design, materials and gadgets, but most importantly - on comfort. The last car had a very awkward rear bench and the new A6 will pamper its rear-seat biased owners with a very comfortable bench and seatback angle. The A6 will be a credible and robust addition to the Audi sedan portfolio.
