Yes, it will be;)

BMW 5 Series M550i 2017 review

While unable to match the raw firepower of the 600hp M5, the M550i’s 4.4-litre V8 produces an entirely respectable 456hp and – thanks to the magic of all-wheel drive and the weight saving made to this generation of 5 Series – dispatches the 0-62mph dash in a claimed 4.0sec, which is faster than the last-generation F10 M5 could manage. An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard, along with a rear-biased all-wheel drive system, although one that lacks the M5’s ability to turn itself rear-drive only.

"The 5 Series retains its title thanks its blend of abilities. It’s refined, on adaptive dampers has the broadest range of comfort and agility, "

I agree with this. On adaptive dampers the 5-Series comes into its own as one of the BEST car money can buy. The 7-Series is more comfortable and the X3 is great too but the 5-Series is the best that best offer in terms of price, comfort, handling and tech.

What an absolute pig the A6 is. I'm shocked that it's 115kg heavier despite not having a drive shaft to send power to the rear. WOW :eek:
 
Auto Express triple-test: A6 vs 5er vs S90. Expected result and yet another test where the Volvo has been chosen in a comparison over the E class.


Edit: I'm having issues inputting the link :dazed053:

Wrong thread.

And the Volvo over the Benz is a big LOL, but to each his own.

Don’t think its you , been having troubles opening links lately on the forum, maybe it’s my browser.

Thank for the article .... proving once again that the 5er is king. Can’t wait to see what the 3er does.
 
I doubt it, because the rear fender is part of the basic body and to implement changes into it would require very high investments. Maybe something in the boot lid. We shall see

Old post and all, but why do you say it would require a very high investment?? It would require them to click on a differently shaped plastic bumper, that is all.

Quick, easy, cheap, non complicated. The way these modern cars are made is such that you can completely change the looks without going into anything structural. And that includes the interior (@Centurion, I can't wait for that year of free Premium :D )

That's what I was thinking. Very odd they chose not to put it in the test. The Volvo looks nice design wise inside and out but the driving experience is sub par in my opinion.
 
The A6 looks way worse IRL than in press pics. The previous one simply looks better.

The 5er is simole the reference in the segment. Best driving dynamics, best interior quality and best engines.
