The 2022 BMW M5 CS Is BMW’s Hellcat 

"Normal" sized grill still undefeated.

Not even a huge BMW guy but this is by far my favorite super-sedan out right now. Absolutely brilliant.

The M5 has always... and I mean ALWAYS been the pinnacle of four door sporty sedans since back in the day and so I take my hat off to BMW for being able to hold onto this amazing achievement right till this day

That’s the most headspace I’ve seen in a Doug Demuro video.

I'm CS and clearly this car was made for me.

Might be controversial but I personally love the bronze accents and yellow running lights, I feel like most companies don't do enough to separate their top tier models. Maybe it was the lighting but were those hose clamps bronze? If so I love it even more now lol (its the little things)

The true definition of the ultimate driving machine 🙌🏻👍🏻 Great review, Doug!

I was thinking green would look killer with that bronze. Neat vehicle. I imagine it would be a blast to drive. One of the better looking cars they've put out in a bit

Where the cs188 upgrade?

BMW did amazing job.

This is easily one of the best BMW’s of all time. So beautiful, so powerful. Just spectacular.

I've never clicked a notification faster

bmw seriously woke up one day and said, "lets just make a muscle car" and somehow everyone was like, "yeah thats a good idea." Its hilarious because BMW has always made elegant sports cars but this beast is just a locomotive on wheels with a massive V8. Its perfect.

I love how the rear seats match/mimic the front seats because I always hate when they don't match. Also most back seats don't have good bolstering so I love that!

Only a 6 at value? I'm quite sure that this won't be losing much value over the time considering that it is also limited to one year of production.

0-60 in 3 seconds and it has baby seat mounts. My mind just keeps going to the lucky baby who will grow up to donuts in this.

Happy to see Doug review my dream car. Like Doug says, the "ultimate M5 ever"

3:57 Doug is the kind of guy who gives caterpillars new homes

The “normal” sized grille is a marked design improvement

A BMW exec said the new grill design will grow on people. I saw an M5 CS in person last weekend and said “yes, he’s wrong…..that’s a good looking car, the new M4 grill is still horrible.”

So, let's stalk CS!

This is not just the best M5 ever, it has to be the best 4-door performance sedan EVER. I need more money--I want one!

Yellow lights have been a trend on motorcycles for a few years, I really like it on this car aswell

14:41 Doug you have "split screen" option in the right corner and that allows you to have 2 things at the same time and solve your problem

E39 m5 is what made me fall in love with the brand. This new generation is also beautiful and powerful.

As a bmw 3-series driver who can't afford an M5, I wonder if I could get mine repainted with that sweet green & bronze combo

BMW never disappoints with their performance cars. This example is beautiful loving the color combo 😍

I just saw this exact car Saturday when I took my X3 in for an oil change. Gorgeous car and when I asked the salesman how much he said its sold and being picked up on Monday. At least now I know the price. Thanks Doug!

Like how can you even have a minor thought about having „too much customization“?? Some reviwers are so full of bs, good on doug for keeping it real

Doug driving like a true BMW driver, gesturing his left hand rather than using the blinker

Hey Doug, comparing the BMW M5 CS to the Hellcat doesn't do the M5 CS justice, as it has phenomel handling unlike the Hellcat.

What's special about Doug's reviews is that it's from the perspective of the average enthusiast and give you what you need to know from an everyday perspective. It kinda makes you appreciate cars in the right way. :)

No idea how there isn't a comment about the cute little caterpillar climbing up on the wheel at 3:53

I love the expression on Doug's face when he's flooring it.

4:00 - Doug the type of guy to show a car with wheels so interesting that caterpillars have to climb on it.

We’re not gonna mention the caterpillar at 3:55 on the top right??

This is the best performance sedan. Best performance suv would be cayenne turbo gt. Both come with bronze badging and wheels with matte paint. Anybody who owns both is truly lucky.

How does the CS get only 4 points in practicality when a similar-sized Plaid gets 7? The CS should be a the top of the all important Doug score!

I have been waiting for you to review this for a long long long time, thank you so much for reviewing this Doug, it is my all time favorite bmw. BMW created a monster.

BMW really needs to make an M5 CS Touring so it can have better practically and it might win the all important DougScore. Great Review Doug!

I really want this car. I wish they gave it a stick shift manual gearbox.

Got to unwrap one of these at work last year at my dealership and drove it around for a few days. Stunning car.

I really love the ZF 8 speed. The shift times are definitely fast enough. I love the slight jerk your get upon shifting. I’ve driven many dual clutches and although the shift times are faster I enjoy the characteristics of the ZF and the fact that it is comfortable the rest of the time

The Bronze looks so elegant. And I love the normal sized grill. It's a very beautiful car, no doubt.

when americas have cheap performance while the other companies have quite expensive performance

4:02 can we appreciate the caterpillar on the wheel for a moment

This is a truly brilliant car. The world Been missing this. This thing is so impressive so amazing. Best sedan ever built ever. It’s got so much for the money it’s amazing. Better than any car under 450k

Can you hit the track someday Doug? Need to see you pushing these beasts for real!

Yea, it’s also HELL when you take it to a repair shop after like 300 miles

Wanna hear a joke? “Heated seat subscriptions”

I drove the last generation M5 a few months ago. WOW is the only way to describe a modern M5. That Twin Turbo V8 engine is amazing to drive and experience. Here's to the end of the modern M5 line up.

Might be a European thing but green and bronze was quite luxurious, seen a couple of Porches and Aston Martins that looked amazing. British racing green with light bronze wheels 👌

the caterpillar on the tire when talking about the brakes is by far my favorite part of this video

"Very luxurious and very quiet" is not how I would describe the CS

Doug DeMuro is our hellcat

The M5 CS is another level, the Hellcat is not even close

This is so much cooler than a Hellcat 😭

Yeah, definitely thought the 2 bucket seats in my GT3 RS was cool. Then I put back my Legos

THIS...is THE ultimate driving machine.

The yellow lights are by far the coolest feature on this car. Wish more would implement this

Hey Doug, I really love your videos! However, I’d love to maybe see different cam angles when you do the test drive (for example the tachometer when you accelerate, the interior, wenn you explain something about it or else) Otherwise, fantastic video as ever😃

I love how new cars can accelerate from 0 to 60mph in less than 3 seconds, yet whenever the light turns green most drivers can only get to 35 by the time they get to the next light. Infinite power crippled by infinite traffic.

Just glad to see an upload that isn't another McLaren haha...

That was the first time I’ve ever heard Doug redline out of all of videos 21:52. This guy is most likely an incredible driver. Thanks for giving the M5 CS the beans!

wow. You know it good when Doug has absolutely no criticism

Finally a proper review of this beast on youtube

I recently started admiring this car a few days ago, and the fact that a review of it from my favorite car reviewer just came out makes me love it even more

the little worm climbing the tire at 3:50 is so cute

I saw this just for the first time this past weekend on the highway in Connecticut in green. The license plate said “AMGWHO” and I couldn’t help but laugh. It was even more beautiful in person.

Hellcat? 😂 This thing is legendary. It's a shame for You, Doug, to compare this masterpiece to hellcat

630HP and is almost as fast as a 1000HP tesla model X plaid. It provides instant torque and smooth power delivery while also handling better and having better build quality. Great car even tho im not a huge fan of bimmers

Imagine having to pay 150k and having to pay for heated seats 😭😭

Doug's the type of guy to knock Porsche enthusiasts for color matched stitching obsessions and then admire the m colors on a bmw seatbelt

Cashier at a bank: Hello how can I help…. Doug: THISSS IS A ROBBERY!!!

Thank you for always adding kilograms (kg), really helps.

Doug should really react to the youtube poop cs188 made featuring him. xD

Please don’t diminish the m5 cs by calling it a hellcat 🤦🏽‍♂️

Hey Doug, small correction. In fact you are able to use stanav and radio at once, you just need to activate split screen option by pulling the lever to the right.

This car is NOT BMWs “Hellcat.” Saying that is an insult to the M5. The hellcat is an oxcart compared to this machine.

13:19 Doug: “all is gone” Me laughing in psychopath.

14:35 You can activate splitscreen by pushing the dial to the right, this opens up a menu where you can display different features

I just saw an M5 CS a couple days ago, it was really cool. It was that color too

Just for comparison's sake, the guys at Throttle House did a quarter mile drag race between this and a Hellcat Redeye. It wasn't even close, the M5 crosses the line about half a football field ahead of the Hellcat.

Cool at 7 compared to 7 for the S plaid! Practicality at 4 S plaid at 7! Value at 6! There’s at least 2 points missing here! It’s way way better than an S plaid, without a single doubt! Time to revise the way you score!

3:52 little caterpillar just chillin on the wheel

I really don’t understand why people complain about iDrive 7. It’s one of the easiest to use infotainment systems on the market. It’s a shame that the new iDrive 8 is so complicated. FYI, Doug, BMW iDrive has had “split screen” since 2009. Which allows you to split audio and navigation on the screen.

The Guys from the "Grip Magazine" tested it in a Dyno, and it had around 700hp and abou 900Nm of Torque Bmw is known for underrating their sports-car specs

Performance BMW are masterpieces, look at that hood, absolutely fulfill, no waste space at all... Engineering state of art, and most important a lap time monster, Germans don't give a fork about quarter mile... That's the BMW's hellcat just before the first turn

the next m5 cs will be my next favourite super saloon

Classic ( normal ) size grill... 10 out of 10. I'm betting these are going to be snatched up by the BMW enthusiasts rather quickly.

Truly offensive to even try and compare this to a hellcat. The hellcat doesn’t even get close

Fun fact: actual power numbers are underestimated by BMW (dunno why?) bcoz actual power is around 700hp. Just sayin'.

Doug Demuro’s hands move so quick I bet Neo struggles to dodge his punches.

Proud to be a part of the M5 family. I have a Sahkir Orange F10 M5. Love it

“The Ultimate Driving Machine” tagline is apt for this car. my favorite car of all time and the best ever.

I imagine my family and me in this gorgeous peace of Art. Stereo is the only peace of equipment you don't need in this car!

3:59 even the caterpillar wants a piece of this car
