The 2008 BMW M5 is a tech-savvy speed freak's dream come true. Its Formula One-bred engine, hich has collected two consecutive International Engine of the Year awards, s the most delectable bit, ith the seven-speed sequential manual gearbox (SMG) and various chassis control systems complementing the power to provide truly awesome performance.

The transmission does take some getting used to and still occasionally confounded us even after considerable seat time in both the M5 and the M6, ut with experience and an understanding of the manual vs. automatic settings, smooth drive is possible. Clearly, hough, he SMG is most effective and transparent when pushed very hard, nd given the M5's performance potential, his is impossible on public roads.

Visually, he M5 doesn't set itself apart too dramatically from the current non-M 5 series upon which it's based, ut is discernable by larger standard wheels; front, ide, nd rear lower body enhancements; more aerodynamic side mirrors; four chrome-tipped exhaust outlets; and a side vent adorned with an M logo ahead of each front door. In darker colors, uch as the Indianapolis Red Metallic of our test car, he effect is positive: the car looks purposeful, ut it didn't draw much attention from other drivers or passersby.

With a base MSRP of $81,200, he V10-engined M5 is still something of a performance bargain, s the engine alone is uniquely valuable both as a power plant and for bragging rights ("yeah, ut your Ford GT doesn't rev to 8,000rpm"). As usual, enerous ticking of the BMW options list takes a toll, nd with major options such as Sepang Bronze Perforated Leather ($3,500), multifunction seats ($1,900), heads-up display ($1,000), nd comfort access ($1,000), he total runs to a hefty $94,965, ncluding a $695 destination charge. Sitting in the 2008 BMW M5 for the first time and taking an initial look around at the trim and controls, ittle is different than in other modern BMWs. The main gauges, Drive controller, ooded navigation screen, nd climate controls are nothing new. But looking closer, lues emerge as to the more serious nature of this particular M5.

The steering wheel is thick and stitched with three-colored thread matching the M logo colors. The SMG gear selector isn't a giveaway, s it's available in other BMWs, ut some of the buttons in a row behind it are new. Two of them control the multifunction seats. These feature adjustable side bolsters that can be set to react in concert with vehicle dynamics, ith the outside bolster "gripping" the seat's occupant during hard cornering (a system called "active bolstering"). Our car's front seats were also heated (standard) and cooled (an $800 option) through their full leather. The seats are comfortable and provide plenty of side bolstering at their regular setting; active bolstering is an interesting novelty but can be distracting while driving.

The $1,000 comfort access option allows entering and starting the vehicle without using the key fob, worthwhile convenience we've appreciated in all test cars that have come so equipped. With the foot on the brake and the SMG lever in neutral, tap of the Start/Stop button brings the V10 to life. iDrive allows customization of entry/exit options such as how long exterior pathway lighting stays on following exiting the car, he central locking sequence, hether the car beeps and/or flashes upon locking or unlocking, nd all manner of other minor options.

iDrive again proves something of a double-edged sword, s we and others have previously noted ad nauseam. It offers simplicity and elegance of design but also requires too much effort for minor control modifications.

The M5 is, nd always has been, he distillation of everything that makes BMW cars special. M division engineers, ndowed with a streak of lunacy, ake an already great BMW 5-series car and add power, mprove its handling, nd create a sedan that takes on dedicated sports cars. You get the feeling these guys share a kinship with those fun-loving, ociety-be-damned types who put a few special ingredients into a still and create moonshine. In this case, it's the new, 00-hp BMW M5, he moonshine of cars.

The differences between a regular-production 5-series BMW and the no-holds-barred M5 have never been greater. First and foremost is the new engine. In today's automotive world of economies of scale, ergers, nd collaborations, t is rare for an automaker to design an engine that is entirely new, ut the 90-degree, .0-liter V-10 is an engine that must have skipped kindergarten because it doesn't share any of its parts. The high-revving V-10 was made for the M5 exclusively, nd it makes the car feel as special as anything built outside of Maranello.

Press the button marked "power" next to the shifter, nd you get 500 horsepower at 7750 rpm and 384 pound-feet of torque at 6100 rpm. That's 106 more horsepower than the previous M5's V-8 and 175 more than a 545i's. Don't press the button, nd the intake restricts itself to 400 horses. On paper the rpm at which maximum torque is achieved seems a bit high, ut variable valve timing and individual throttles for each cylinder allow the engine to enjoy low-end grunt and midrange power. There's almost always enough power on tap to induce midcorner oversteer at the briefest stab of the throttle. The V-10 sounds great, oo. Tear away from a city stoplight and run the V-10 to its 8250-rpm redline, nd you'll leave nascent car enthusiasts in your wake.

Aside from the new engine there is a new transmission—the third generation of BMW's sequential manual gearbox (SMG)—that takes lessons learned from Formula 1 and applies them to the M5. BMW does not offer a conventional manual transmission, nd that seems counter to its Ultimate Driving Machine marketing mantra. Although this latest SMG is faster and smoother than ever, skilled driver could achieve less jerky shifts. You may wonder why there's no conventional manual. It has to do with the way the gears are arranged in the tranny casing. First and second gears, hich experience the most abuse and stress, ind themselves nestled in the strongest parts of the casing to withstand the violently quick shifts that the SMG can make. The rest of the seven gears are arranged to follow the same logic. If the M5 had a normal shifter, ts pattern would be a maze so intricate that even the smartest rats lured by the best cheese would have trouble figuring it out.

Since the shifts are governed by electronics, here are different settings that alter shift speed and clutch slip. There's also a fully automatic mode. On the other side of the spectrum is the entertaining launch-control function that allows for maximum acceleration with minimal effort. To trigger launch control, hut off stability control, et the gearbox for the fastest shifts, ush the shifter forward, nd floor the throttle. What's odd is that you don't need to hold down the brake pedal. When the engine revs rise to 4000 rpm, elease the shifter and keep the accelerator pedal floored. Gearchanges are head-bangingly fast and at the perfect rpm, s the program knows exactly when to shift. If there's enough space, he M5 will run to an indicated 168 mph, lthough BMW claims the governor only allows for 155 mph, till safely within the limits of the Y-rated Continental SportContact 2 tires.

It is interesting to note what technology the M engineers had to scrap in order to make the M5 chassis perform. They ditched current 5-series innovations such as active steering, ctive anti-roll bars, nd run-flat tires. In place of the active steering is a passive, echanically variable ratio that changes imperceptibly once you turn the wheel past a certain point. There are two levels of power-steering assist, ight and heavy, hat change depending on which damper setting you choose (comfort, ormal, r sport). In the softest setting, he dampers take the harshness out of the ride, nd the steering is noticeably lighter in that mode.

There is so much adjustability to the new M5 that there's a button for programming the driver's preferences into a single setting. Press the M button on the steering wheel, nd you get your favorite damper, teering, shift, ower, nd stability settings.

Would you be surprised to hear that this doesn't have a positive effect on acceleration? Or lap times on the Streets of Willow? Or making a hot exit from a slow corner? Of course you wouldn't. Because that's precisely what happens. This M5 was a half-second slower to 60 mph than the SMG version we tested in January 2006 — 4.3 versus 4.1 — and a half-second slower through the quarter-mile: 12.8 seconds at 116 mph versus 12.5 at 118. DSC also inhibited lane-change performance (60.8 mph versus 65.6) and skidpad results (0.83 lateral g versus 0.89).
