@@JoeAchilles1 My best 0-60 was 3.02s , my 2019 M5 CP is on Michelin PSS4 .I totally share your opinion about its harsh suspension ,however in Europe, Germany , Croatia roads are smoother car felt amazing. Did Stelvio too :) (enjoyed your M8 GC video on that too ) . Before my car's handover in Edinburgh, I watched and read many videos (including yours) and articles as I was mainly worried about the suspension of the Competition Pack. Also I had driven another one in Hampshire which was sort of reassuring about the ride but funny enough the one which I got then was totally different, very stiff! So I was playing with the tyre pressure and tyre size, I also checked F90 forums and even bought a jack from Halfords to check spring spacers as many dealership did leave them in unfortunately, which of course ruined the comfort even more! Anyhow, my did not have the spacers left in so I took it to my local BMW dealership to 'get it sorted', I was hoping some sort of adjustment or alignment .They managed to soften it somehow, apparently they changed tyre size or what .. BUT .Since then , my car has not been as stable in corners , nohing like it used to be, or as it was when I drove home from Scotland . Is rolling more now when turning which is 'OKish' for daily comfort drive, but when you really want to enjoy that power the car just feels more simple in corners, miss the M letter. Did wonder the other day whether I should ask them next time at the service if they could reset to the original settings !? Sorry about the long comment.. Love your videos , thank you for them , good luck and stay safe ! Örs

@@Chris-ob7qd It might just be in the UK (or EU) but there's a law that you can "Voluntary Terminate" a PCP contract after half the contracted amount has been paid, usually 50% through the PCP term. So 2 years into a 4 year contract. You can basically hand the car back and stop payments, only having to pay for any cosmetic or other damage. Some people will tell you this looks negative on your credit score, but IIRC it's illegal for it to do that. BMW are generally fine with it, if you go and get another one. My advice on finance: Never pay the dealer's asking interest %, especially if it's over 8% (on used). On a new car, you should try and time your purchase to coincide with a low APR deal, to try and get it < 3% (again, UK numbers, YMMV).

6:59 The cracks and pops have been dialled out with a new ECU map. The filter isn't the culprit. BMW were forced to do this in light of EU noise regs, voted on by the EU parliament in 2013 and came into effect in 2019. The rules limit car noise to 68dB. There are M5s out there with filters that have exhausts that pop and crack on the overrun.

Love your videos Joe ! I finally got my BMW M5 Competition delivered to me. It took three months to get it after I ordered it from the dealer. But I enjoyabley passed the time waiting for my M5 Comp LCI by watching all of Joe's M5 Competition videos.The dealer told me not to let the car rev over five thousand RPM's until after the 1200 mile break in service.Then I will take the car out and see what she really can do. I got the drivers package which gives you a day at the track and raises the top speed from 154 mph to 189 mph. In two months I'm driving up to NYC from Florida to visit family. Interstate 95 north which I will be traveling on has a perfectly straight two lane highway going from the border of georgia and south Carolina. I am going to open it up for two hundred miles at 189 mph on I 95 north .

Hi Joe, just going back to the pops and bangs on the LCI M5, its not because the new car is fitted with OPFs, that they are gone, its because they are actually mapped out, in the ECU. All M5 Competitions made, have OPFs, as does the LCI car, but i just wanted to point out, its in the ECU mapping, where their demise lays, and its such a shame, All to do with emissions as usual, and WLTP regs, keep going with the videos, always enjoy them.
