Scintillating power and acceleration from the turbocharged V8 engine
All-wheel drive provides sure-footed traction
Lavishly trimmed and equipped interior
More exclusive than BMW M models

Pros
Sharper handling from revised suspension
Boffo V8's prodigious thrust
All-wheel drive increases performance capability
Premium cabin packed with features

Cons
Daunting number of powertrain and suspension settings
Stiff on bumpy roads, even in Comfort mode

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
More power,
sharper handling,
no real downside.

Cons
$7300 price premium,
modest improvements over the already-stupendous standard M5.

By:

Goodbye standard M5, hello M5 Competition; shortly the only version you'll be able to buy in Australia. Will the bump in performance be worth the jump in price?

Pros
Sharper chassis
Huge fun
Still pretty civilised

Cons
Feels its size on the track
Lacks the rear-drive purity of its predecessors
