Ah, the BMW M5, a car that has sparked quite the controversy among enthusiasts. Some say it's lost its way with the new design changes and the addition of a hybrid system. But let me tell you, this beast is not to be underestimated. The dyno test reveals that it packs a punch, exceeding BMW's power claims with 727 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque. That's some serious grunt under the hood, making for a thrilling acceleration of around 3.5 seconds from 0-60 mph.

Now, let's talk about the driving experience. Despite its weight due to the hybrid system, the M5 surprises with its handling prowess. The adaptive dampers provide a comfortable ride, while the car's ability to keep flat through bends is commendable. However, the weight does impact the overall feel, masking some of the sensations you'd expect from a high-performance sedan. It's a bit like taming a wild stallion that's carrying a few extra bags of oats.

But don't let the naysayers fool you; there are some standout features in the new M5. From its distinctive design elements like the illuminated grille to the M-specific interior details, this car certainly commands attention. And let's not forget the practical side – with discounted pricing and tax benefits for company car buyers, the M5 becomes an enticing option. So, while it may not be perfect, the BMW M5 proves that it still has what it takes to turn heads and deliver a thrilling driving experience.
