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 BMW Z4

Pros

  • Stunning Design
  • Inline Six-Cylinder Motor Is Fun
  • Open-Top Motoring

Cons

  • Not The Most Spacious Cabin
  • Small Boot
  • No Significant Updates

Verdict

It drives like a BMW should, it's quick on its heels and you'll love the grip that is on offer if you bend into the curves. It's been 4 years that the Z4 is in India and the customers still believe that the car is good looking and fun to drive. BMW has priced it at Rs 69.9 lakhs which is at par with most of its competitors. However, BMW has to think of a serious facelift of the Z4 perhaps a new beginning will mean a bigger and brighter future.
