Today we’re back with the owner’s review of a 2019 BMW M5 Competition. In this review, the owner shares his experience of converting a 5 series into an M5 and briefs us about its specs and features. The F90 M5 is based on the G30 5 series, launched in 2017, and is still in production. This M5 Competition has a bit more power than the standard M5 pumping out 617 hp and 750 nm of torque from its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8. This engine is configured with an 8-speed automatic transmission, delivering power to all four wheels.
Performance
Getting right into the performance, which is the main talking point of this car, this is the most powerful motor that BMW M has ever developed for a series production vehicle. As per the owner, a stock car does 0 to 100 in around 3 seconds; however, this particular car has been recently stage 2 tuned, which will enable it to decrease its 0 to 100 times further. This being the first M5 offered in all-wheel drive, it puts the power down really well upon acceleration, but it is still rear-wheel biased, giving it a genuine BMW feel.
Modifications
Despite the conversion from scratch, the owner has done some further modifications to this M5. Firstly, it has been Stage 2 tuned, increasing its power figures; additionally, the owner has installed trims like a trunk lip spoiler along with splitters at the bottom. The owner has also installed 20-inch Vossen alloy wheels instead of the stock rims and slightly lowered the car.
Fuel Average
As per the owner, the fuel average totally depends on the driving style. He once checked the maximum average by driving with a very light foot and even got 10 km/l. But it’s almost inevitable not to push this car, so on average, it gives around 5 to 6 km/l within the city on hi-octane.
Ground Clearance
As per the owner, ground clearance is not an issue within Islamabad due to the paved roads and small speed breakers. However, he once took this car to Lahore, and it was a nightmare,” Not once did it go over a speed breaker without scraping the ground”, he added.
Maintenance And Reliability
As per the owner, he has kept several BMWs over the years, and they are very reliable if maintained regularly from the right places. According to him, this car has had no problems after its conversion and is trouble-free. He is very particular about the fuel he puts in and maintains the car only from the person who converted it. Maintenance cost is obviously heavy on the pocket as parts need to be imported, but otherwise, it is not a hassle.
