Who ever posted that video has edited it a bit but even then its a great video and even a greater car. Tiff can make a very good drift car driver as you can see from the video. Also I find it hard to believe that Top Gear hasnt reviewed the M5

I agree, the car is great for driving- engine , transmission, & suspension. Unfortunately, what reviews like this neglect are the baren interior and over the top, for a bmw, exterior design.

To bad it has such a small engine. Another 100 cubic inches would be a nice treat.

It most likely wouldn't rev to 8250 rpm, though... the M5 uses technology inspired by the BMW F1 program - 7 gears, V10, low displacement, high redline. Inside sources say the V10 can rev to 10k without issues...

redline = fun factor

Tiff Needle is freakin tight and so is that M5. You should have seen Tiff drive the McClaren F1 back in his Top Gear days .

My fav tiff moment is the first time he lays on the throttle in that test drive. He looks like he came in his pants.
