    BMW M5 E60

    The BMW M5 is a high performance variant of the BMW 5 Series marketed under
    the BMW M sub-brand. It is considered an iconic
    vehicle in the sports sedan category. The
    majority of M5s have been produced in the sedan
    (saloon) body style, but in some countries the M5
    was also available as a wagon (estate) from 1992
    to 1995 and from 2006 to 2010. The first M5 model
    was hand-
    built in 1985
    on the E28
    535i chassis
    with a
    modified
    engine from
    the M1 that
    made it the fastest production sedan at the time. M5
    models have been produced for every generation of
    the 5 Series since 1985.
    The E60 M5 was introduced in 2004, with a V10 engine and 7-speed paddle-shift SMG
    (Sequential Manual Gearbox) transmission linking the car with the BMW Sauber Formula One
    program. The E60 M5 was the world's first production sedan to use a V10 gasoline engine. This
    generation of the M5 was also built in the E61 Touring (wagon) body style, which was only sold
    in Europe. The E63/E64 M6 coupé and convertible are based on a shortened version of the M5
    chassis and largely use the same mechanical components.
    The official 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration figure is 4.7 seconds for the sedan,
    however magazine tests have recorded figures down to 4.1 seconds. The E60 M5 was the
    fastest 4-door sedan available at the time of its introduction; top speed is electronically restricted
    to 250 km/h (155 mph) but could be raised to 305 km/h (190 mph) with the optional M-driver's
    package. The M5 has recorded a Nürburgring lap time of 8:13
    Upgrades over regular 5 Series models include a wider track, unique body panels, a
    colourful heads up display featuring navigation, control messages, speed, rpm and gear
    selection information, automated seat side bolsters, heated/ventilated seats and power rear
    curtain. The larger, flared front guards on either side also featured cooling vents, reminiscent of
    the 1970s BMW CSL. The wheels were of 19-inch diameter and the car has quad exhaust pipes
    at the rear.
    The BMW S85 is a 5.0 L (305 cu in) V10 engine which generates a power output of
    373 kW (507 PS; 500 hp) at 7,750 rpm and 520 N⋅m (384 lb⋅ft) of torque at 6,100 rpm. The S85
    was exclusively used in the E60 M5 (and related E63/E64 M6and is not based on any other
    engine.
    There are three driver-selectable engine modes: P400, P500 and P500 S. P400, the default
    start-up mode, limits the engine to 294 kW (400 PS; 394 hp). P500 increases power to the full
    373 kW (507 PS; 500 hp). The P500 S mode keeps the engine at the same power output as the
    P500 mode but adds a more sensitive throttle response.
    This engine is well known for its rod bearing failures, the stock bearings not providing sufficient
    clearance (the S65 from the E9X series M3, being based on the S85, shares the issue), which
    can lead to catastrophic engine failure if it is not addressed. Another major issue with this
    engine is the throttle actuators, which is usually attributed to the gears located inside the

    actuators, however, electronic failure of the actuators themselves is not uncommon.
