  • Comment removed

  • Double clutch, Twin clutch, Dual clutch, Are they all the same???

  • do you really need to ask that question?

  • Comment removed

  • STOP DESTROYING THE CAR! -_-

  • I'm not sure why anyone over the age of 18 would even want to drift a car like that. Seriously, what's the point? All you're doing is wasting tires. What's next? A burnout competition? See how long it takes to pop the rear tires by burning them down to the rims?

  • hes wearing glasses when they showing the outside of the car but when shown from inside he isnt

  • @shoticko It is allowed

  • @mkuroglu my name is sherlock

  • @shoticko He obviously took 2+ shots to get it right. He drifted it no doubt, but it probably looked bad on camera, citing take 2 w/o the shades

  • i thought this guy was gonna hand it off to the stig xD he can drive!

  • need to do a mobility scooter:/

  • Of course it will drift. What the fuck is this dumb question!

  • Dear Autocar, this is the dumbest question, about this car, imaginable. Your cameraman couldn't even hold the camera steady while sitting in the passenger seat... production value = zero

    I think you guys should stick to print because too many of your videos really... well... SUCK!

  • do the Lamborghini Aventador next 

  • But will ist Blend??

  • they should take the "will it blend" blender and put it through this

  • Check drift for Guinness,just type in,it's done with Mercedes c class

  • Will it drift? a BMW M5? ARE YOU STUPID?? didn't even watched the video paused it and left ....

  • You have your steering wheel on the wrong side!

  • one could drift almost any car... tanner foust proves it

  • will 550 hp m5 drift? Thats like asking if guys like sex

  • Willie it drift????

  • $700 worth of tires in 2 mins...hard to justify. I bet the German engineers who developed the car are shaking there heads in dissapproval.

  • @ocdaddvids Its better than spending $220,000 for a 30 second commercial... at least this video does a showcase on what the M5 is capable of doing and will please the biggest fanatics, and can have unlimited views. $220,000 vs $700 worth of tires, yeah... think about it :]

  • new m5 looks like junk

  • @UFCextra u look like junk.

  • 1970 Ford Ranger, Will it Drift?

  • No, because its a 1.4 60 hp it will most likely not drift.

  • I think this type of thing is best left to Top Gear & Blendtec

  • will a Nissan GTR drift....... lolz NO! XD

  • His sunglasses magically appear when viewing the car from overhead or outside

    But disappear in the in-car view

  • Comment removed

  • Driving in automatic is so much easier

  • 0:11 was a shock to me. How boring can a man be?

  • BMW M5will it drift ? really...

  • It will drift until the tires give out or till it runs out of gas, not sure which would happen first

  • @0:28 ITS JAMES MAY  DRIVING!

  • Ovbously it will drift... Its a BMW

  • lol @ 2:03 : despite its outrageous power its the perfect drifting machine........ power is the most important thing for drifting lol

  • What a Monster xD, What a Beautiful car :D

  • but will it blend?

  • Anything with wheels can drift , The Question is : Will it Kill you ?

  • It can drift!

    

  • Will it drift? The answer is: ENDLESSLY

  • come on guys a BMW M5 and you ask yourself 'will it drift?' that's like you ask a bitch does she know how to fuck...she knows that better than anything..

  • why does he have sunglasses when the outside camera appears?

  • ... no i ten pierdolony angielski spedalony akcent

  • @KarlGoth hahaha there's definatley a person in there bro.

  • If I'm paying for the tyres - no, it most definitely will not.

  • Let these guys buy up this M5 so the e60 6pseed's price will drop further into MINE territory

  • So sleek...love it!

  • 0:24 tp 0:34 ,,, any body else noticed that the car is driving by it self

  • @KarlGoth are you blind?

  • @KarlGoth KId, its a RHD (right hand drive) There is a guy sitting .. u can even see his hands on the steering... anyway... useless video..

  • drift the popemobile next time

  • is this a joke? you can drift a mini cooper when it comes down to it, i don't get this......

  • The specs are wrong ! ita 555hp and 560tq

  • Will it blend?

  • What sort of fucking retarded question is that?

  • o_O

  • I had no clue that a M5 could drift. Thank you for informing me, dearest autocar.

  • @CilitBang321 um was that sarcasm?

  • the next show no doubt will be called 'will it reverse'

  • LOL

    

  • Steve, I luv your tricks !

  • yes it will drift!!

  • WoW. SO shocking!

  • come on, you can not be serious to ask if a bmw m5 (front engine and rwd) will drift....

  • Weird... was he doing the driving? He's wearing sunglasses in the exterior clips while but doesn't have any in the in-car shots? 1:22

  • @bapeforceone the m5 is sooo cool that people from the outside automatically see you in your coolest shades

  • Yes Sir !

  • I don't understand why a twin turbo V8, then in that case it should have at least just over 600HP just 50HP more than the previous V10 engine that screams unreliability of all sorts after about 70thousand miles. I prefer the V10 it's a much more balanced engine and true piston power no steroids. I would love to see the E60 V10 on the E39 M5 that would truly be amazing. I think the V10 in the E60 is a much better engine than the V8 in the E39 but without sport mode just straight MPower.

  • even my grandmother could drift a bmw, it`s perfectly balanced :)

  • What a beast.. Monte Carlo blu wiv black rims my dream... Mpower 4life!!!

  • Too slow!!! it's easier like this!! I wanna see a drift around 120km/h!!!

  • wow didnt expect bmw m5 to drift LOL

  • @PorscheFanatic991 will it grip would be far more impressive....a $1,000 camaro will drift.

    My user name has meaning if you werent RETARDED

  • Hate the new v8... v10 forever

  • Just moved back after 3 years in Berlin. The humour was sarcastic but not in an intelligent or belly laughing way (unless you enjoy ridiculing others without their participation or someone in physical pain and misfortune), and the general humour was very childish and predictable. That said there were a couple who had a good sense of humour and got the subtlety of our jokes. Leave the fun to us Brits ;-)

  • Bitches love gratuitous slow-motion.

  • Comment removed

  • this is pretty stupid...

  • but, will it blend?

  • i dunno why but i dont like the exterior looking of that car..maybe its to big..i dont know..

  • @2207paris yeah i like it but some people dont probaly people dont like it caus it is a bit big and sharp

  • I dunno, I feel kind of bad for the car. It sounds like the tires are pretty darn good and the surface very grippy and rough which is not really something I would want when drifting.

    If decided one day to go have some fun drifting Id put on some shit*y tires or I would find some slippery asphalt, which is not difficult to find.

    So often I find automoto journalists dont really care how they treat car. Oh, its not mine, Ill trash it. Thats just primitive behaviour.

  • this shows a fucking joke

  • @ArchAngelPayne I agree, but what can you expect from the UK? This sort of crap is like people having to wank over some picture rather than do the real thing. I'd never buy a car like that & look for a car park or disused airfield to then just go around in circles destroying the rear tyres in 1 minute. It's so pathetic. Even though I'm a Brit myself I can't stand the UK in that regard. Living here in Germany I get to do the real thing every day. 260+kph on the Autobahn, legally.

  • @trident3b You've been in the land of no humour too long. Its a bit of fun!

  • @xlmp96 ok, so it's fun. Yep, you're right, all a question of taste. But look, forgive me, but this is another thing we (in UK) do... you assume there is no humour here... but do you speak the language? Possibly not. I do. Fluently. And guess what; if you speak and understand the language, you understand the humour. And they have it here alright. It's bitingly sarcastic and can be extremely funny, though sometimes a bit complex. It all depends on what one considers to be humorous. :)

  • If only can drift....

  • bmw rules. my dads got one!!!

  • monster power, rear-wheel drive equals drift. So what's the point?

  • find a track man, this is boring.... :/

  • Take that Audi RS6!

  • Drifted - All day long....

  • Reminder to self: buy stock in tire companies!

  • Anyone can drift anything on a skid pad, put on a twisty track and drift the whole thing without catching traction and then ask that question

  • hmm i hope mercedes making a better E63 amg for the next bred of the mercedes

  • will my 800cc maruti drift.. NO!

  • what kindove question is this its like saying if u turn your steering wheel right will it turn right? Wtf!? its a bmw 2 its 5 series 3 its fucking M5!

  • Touareg drift on snow ...I just made a video...if you want to take a look at my channel...thanks

  • You can pretty much make any car drift, even a 2CV (if you're good enough). Nonetheless seeing any car drift is pretty cool.

  • "will it drift?" uhhh ya... its a bloody M5! what a ridiculous question.

  • i love how before he drifts it he doesn’t have glasses on and while he’s drifting he’s wearing glasses!

  • @xxdom1nati0nxx thats because BMWs turn normal people into cocks!

  • Try to drift a DeLorean, Mini Cooper, Aston Martin DB9 or a 1932 Lanchester LA10 Saloon

  • Comment removed

  • How did I miss this video?!

  • Not being funny but that isn't the nicest sound for a twin turbo V8!! It should sound more like Noble M600... now that sounds just mean!

  • i feel like the older one would drift way better did you do that one yet?

  • spectacularly fierce looking car, easily one of the best looking new cars on the road. Haters be hatin'!

  • i love FORD GT but secound is IMR GT3

  • i love FORD GT but secound is IMR GT3

  • I LOVE THIS SERIES

  • the question is how long the tires would last

  • ///M POWER

    

  • I think the question is "will it STOP drifting" :)

  • ...until the tires burn off is the answer :)

  • This is wrong, BMW have named a limo an 'M5'! The noise is pretty good though.

  • more like "will it power slide"

  • what a waste of tires :(

  • Sure it handles beautifully but it's still ugly (as are all current BMW's) and sounds even more like a washing machine than the GTR...and a near two tonne weight in a mid size saloon is just not acceptable anymore no matter how well it may disguise it

  • But will it blend?

  • try "Will it grip?"

  • the name of this vid should of been yes it drifts

  • Is it just me or does it seem one of the wheels isnt moving at all during the drift at 1:55?

  • This is why you never buy a rental car

  • @SuperSixinches the cars they use are demo cars not rental cars, sometimes if they are testing cars that have very limited numbers, they use that same demo car for almost every other car show in UK..and they will sell all these demo cars

    good points: you dont have to be in the waiting list, Really cheap,

    bad points: might have a few scratches, unable select your options, if it breaks down, your on your own..

  • Time to get new tires...

  • stupid question.......

  • Meh, he's just power "drifting". Every RWD car with over 100 HP can do that.

  • This is the reason why we don't have to buy demo car.

  • but, will it blend?

  • I Love The Front Of The M5 But Bmw Changing Their Taillights To Those Plain Red Ones. I'm Not Kinda Fond Of It.

  • 1. I am expecting a full review of the M5.

    2. The guy is wearing glasses when they show the view of the car from the outside, but he is not wearing glasses when they show the interior view.

  • lame sucky video

  • Hm, not that impressed with the chassis by the looks of this video. Way too much flex and roll. Sedans :/

  • @910127 Saloons have stiffer bodies, because their B pillars have to be stronger in order to support the weight of the extra rear doors.

  • @JELH I don't understand your point. It's definitely not stiff enough, IMO, looking at that chassis roll and bend, lol.

  • @910127 well, it is 4200lbs of car. Making a suspension to get no roll from a 4200lbs car, would mean just putting it on cedar blocks. It's too heavy to not roll, while still being driveable. Don't forget this is not a ZR1 but a M5, it's a blend of sports and luxury.

  • Never high tech bmw v8 will sound like cheap, simple and powerfull american muscle v8!!!

  • @folerx What the fuck are you talking about? How about taking some English classes before posting this sort of incomprehensible crap you posted it?

  • @JELH Despite my bad English language, however you understand what I wrote-)))

  • I just don't like the sound of the new engine.

  • @venom5809 What sound?

  • @meije702 LOL True. Well they do pump in artificial sound to the cabin so that counts for something, right?

  • have anybody noticed that they guy in the outside view of the car is wearing sunglasses while inside he's obviously not?

  • @develish16 that's because they had to do another shot without a camera man inside the car and clearly he put sunglasses on for that take

  • @Krisiun111 mmmm my comment was just to see if u've noticed....I didn't intend to be specific about the sunglasses...but anyways thx for ur comment

  • @develish16 it's him, with sunglasses. they don't need a stunt double it isn't a very hard thing to do, and we can clearly see him doing it from the inside view.

  • @develish16 who the fuck cares.. its a brand new m5 getting the shit beat out of it.

  • @develish16 Have you also noticed in that shot the cameraman isn't in the passenger seat and its a different time of day? OMG!!...Its sundown and he wanted his sunglasses on, get over it.

  • @develish16 And the camera man is gone also!!

  • @develish16 Wow you solved mistery of life right there.

  • @Boleslav69 WOW....people don't understand what is written these days.....what I said was just an observation...no need to do that

  • and the point is........?

    

  • this show does not prove anything, it is only for him to have fun

  • I liked the drifting part.

  • That GT3 RS powerslide at the start was beautiful!

  • 580 ps (hp) !!!!!!!!

  • i espected a better drift

  • It still sounds shit

  • is it me or am i seeing paint chips in the tire smoke?

  • @VideoDude6475

    Pretty sure its just debris on the track being kicked up, I fail to see how paint would be chipped off by tirespin.

  • Glad I'm not buying that car after this nonsense

  • you can make most RWD cars drift in that massive space! WTF? i thought he was going to put some water down next...
