After years of working hard, I’m within reach of achieving dream car status, and I was hoping to gain some insight from M5 owners.

My dream is to own a fun daily, quick from factory and suitable for driving in every season. It will also serve as my primary mode of transportation. After test driving different cars, I found the RS3 to be the perfect car and currently waiting for the shipment to reach the US!

However, recently, a coworker of mine allowed me to experience his 2023 M5, and I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did. Now, I feel that I might be happier with the M5.

While I could opt for a newer 2023 model, the price of $100k+ would stretch my budget to its max, possibly beyond what I would consider comfortable. Therefore, I am considering looking at used 2021+ models in the $80k-90k range. I plan on keeping the car for a minimum of 4-5 years. I don’t mind or worry about paying for maintenance, but I am more concerned about reliability and potential expensive repairs as a daily.

I would like to know how well M5s have held up for people over time, especially in higher mileage.
