BMW claims the 2016 M5 Competition Edition is the most powerful version of the M5 currently available on the market. The 2016 BMW M5 Competition Edition builds off the features available on the 575 horsepower M5 with the Competition package.
A total of 200 units will be manufactured, 100 in white and 100 in black. All models will include a plaque with a number denoting its order in the manufacturing process.
What’s New
The package includes a stiffened and lowered suspension, a specially programmed active rear differential, more direct steering, and a re-tuned stability-control system.
The M5 Competition Edition features a unique set of black alloy wheels, wrapped with 265/35R20 rubber up front and 295/30R20 rubber out back. The exterior is highlighted by carbon fiber trim pieces and is only available in two metallic colors: Mineral White and Carbon Black. Inside, the BMW M5 Competition Edition features a black and white color scheme, along with unique stitching on the performance seats. Bang & Olufsen stereo system, heads-up display, and lane keep assist (optional on the normal M5), are standard on the Competition Edition.
