One YouTuber found the BMW E60 M5 V10-powered E60 M5 a bit too hot to handle.
What’s your week like? Is it good? A little bit rotten. This guy is a great example of how to get off to a good start. YouTuber Alex Gray takes us along as he collects his E60 BMW M5 car from the shop, after he had a paint correction done. Unfortunately, he was unable to stop the car from rolling away ten minutes later.
We see his M5 in its best state since new over a decade ago. The blue paint shines with unparalleled depth and clarity. It glows like a large pool that you want to jump into.
We are confident that no one would argue that the E60 M5 looks better than the E39 M5. The S85 V10 underneath the hood of this newer car did the impossible and outshines the S62 V8 in E39 M5. Gray’s personal license plate is a clear indication of this – “V10 FW.”
Sometimes, highs and lows can be inextricably linked and they can happen quickly. Gray claims that just ten minutes after leaving the shop, Gray hit a bump on the wet road. Gray lost control of his M5 and slid off the road, hitting an mailbox.
The car sustained a lot of non-mechanical damage from the collision. The windshield and front bumper will need to be replaced, while the right rear panel, quarter panel and rocker panels sustained the most damage.
Alex Gray caused $4,000 of damage to his beloved BMW. He also chose not to have collision coverage, so this is all on him. We wish Alex Gray a better week.
