2006 BMW M5 consumer reviews

V10's Williams inspired engine, Germany will never build another one with todays restrictions. This one is one for the ages destined to be a collectors car.

This car is a 9 out of 10. One of the best engines ever made! This car is in excellent condition both inside and out. Zero issues ever!

The ultimative driving machine! Very expensive car but well worth it in every aspect! I hope the car will find someone as me, that throughly appreciates it for what it is!

How does a car full of airbags crash at high speed not one airbag deployed? Recalls show lots of airbag issues not this year but why just cuz they havent been forced to admit? Anyone else have airbag deploying issues with this car? I had to remove the machines keeping my brain dead fiance alive i can't help but think if airbags did their job he may be here still and iwouldn't be tramatized for life...

Great car: comfortable & fast, so many options for daily driving and racing. Great paint. The only draw back is the gas mileage, but it?s a performance car!

Fast and comfortable. Good looking design. Great motor. Great value. Fantastic interior. This car is the best of both worlds being comfortable When you want it and a sports car with a push of a button

Ok, the BMW M5 is my favorite car of all time for the following reasons... It has tons of power, it is super comfortable, super safe, it has great interior and exterior styling. So what more could you ask for... Right? Well, the big fail from my experience is that the car just is not reliable at all. I was in the dealership for repairs/maintenance every 2-3 months. The M5 is so touchy and underivable for even the most mundane issues. For example say your battery dies. Ok, easy fix right? Go to your local auto store and buy a $80 replacement battery and be back on the road in 20 min tops. WRONG!! With the M5 you have to get the car towed to the dealership, buy the $250 batter, have it "professionally installed" and have it electronically coded to your car's internal computer system for it to work correctly and not cause other system errors within your car. The whole process cost me a little over $600 and 2 days worth of down time. That is just one example... I could list out 10 other examples easily. Anyways, if you have an extra car to drive while the M5 is in the shop and you have $6,000 $8,000+ a year to throw away with regular maintenance issues THEN and only then is the BMW M5 the best car EVER!! :-)

Only issue I had with this car within the 40k mikes of ownership were the oil cooler , and 1 spark plug coil...car ran perfect and beating even the new Camaro ss.

The E60 M5 is a bucket list car for me... a MUST own. If you have to opportunity to get one, do it. I absolutely love it and man that V10 screams!! It's a supercar and needs careful attention, but will treat you well in return! It's just my weekend car, but I absolutely love it.

The M5 2006 is the Best Car Ever Made From Bmw Reliable Fast Comfort Better Then the new one 2011 i Like the V10 Heavy Duty Engine SMG is not Bed iOwed over 100 cars this is the best car i owed
