Most Helpful Review

The cle cab

The buying experience was good but the showroom took an extra week for the paperwork, the driving experience is good but could be better, the looks of the car are quite impressive and the performance is very bad compared to the 340i and this car cost 36lakhs more and now I feel why I didn't go for the 340i. This car has very low mileage and too much maintenance, the interior is luxurious but gets dirty so often that this is a headache the car is OK not so extraordinary.

M5 with batteries

Looks could be more aggressive, overall good, best if you are BMW fanboy, Standing out in the segment with the competitors, performance is always in DNA.
