Picked up the M5 LCI on Wednesday

JOHNBMWM5 · 10-31-2020, 12:18 PM

The tech and IDrive screen impressive, car looks much meaner than my 2019 M5 Comp.

What's with the leather on the side of the passenger seat?

He's talking about the rinkly part. And I'm sure it came that way from factory.

Did you turn your 2019 M5 in early?

To Op,

How does your 2021 M5 feel in comfort setting versus your 2019 M5?

vladberca · 10-31-2020, 09:15 PM

Lovely upgrade! Congrats for the purchase! 👍

It is Softer but not in a bad way, "Improved".

It looks meaner...

Best phrase I've heard about the LCI. I also like your wheel choice and what made you choose them?

BenLin · 11-03-2020, 08:18 AM

how is it for pops and bangs on lift off / upshift? worried mine will be too quiet

Needed a change of colour and looks, this did the trick.

Not great TBH, I've only covered 140 miles but seems quieter than my 2019, may need some miles to bed/improve it.

Thought as much - OPF a nightmare. Coming from RS6 Performance and it sounds so quiet but performance and handling are prob worth the pay off!
