In this latest episode from Throttle House, the team embarks on a thrilling adventure with the BMW M5 Touring, a car that promises to be the ultimate all-rounder. As they push the M5 to its limits, they find themselves questioning its performance and handling, especially when compared to its fierce rival, the Audi RS6. The M5's weight becomes a significant concern, impacting its agility and cornering abilities, leaving the team somewhat underwhelmed by its overall driving experience.
Stopping for a burger break, the team draws amusing parallels between the M5 and RS6 rivalry and the choices between Champburger and Superber. They delve into the M5's interior, critiquing its materials and functionality while praising its unique steering wheel design. Despite some shortcomings, the team acknowledges the M5's potential for excitement, especially with its powertrain calibration and drifting capabilities.
As the journey progresses, the team continues to dissect the M5's design, debating its aesthetic appeal compared to the RS6's more subtle look. While the wagon version of the M5 adds a touch of improvement, the team remains divided on whether it truly enhances the car's overall appearance. Ultimately, the Throttle House crew concludes that while the M5 Touring shows promise as a versatile and powerful vehicle, it falls short in certain areas, leaving room for improvement in future iterations.
