Stopping power in the M5 is also enhanced courtesy of a high performance braking system with cross-drilled ventilated discs and twin-piston callipers.

 Messier Object 5
Globular cluster M5 was first seen by Gottfried Kirch and his wife Maria Margarethe on May 5, 1702, when they observed a comet, and described as a "nebulous star".
M5 shows a distinct ellipticity, elongated at position angle 50 degrees (position angles give the orientation of a feature in the celestial sphere; they are measured between North and the direction considered, in counterclockwise sense); it is thought to be one of the oldest globular clusters, with a computed age of 13 billion years.
To the west of M5 and up to 110 Virginis is a collection of faint distant galaxies including NGCs 5806, 5811, 5813, 5814, 5831, 5838, 5839, 5845, 5846, 5846A, 5848, 5850, 5854, 5864, 5865, 5869 and 5887, of brightnesses between mag 10.0 and 13.9, mostly requiring larger telescopes.

 Preview: 2006 BMW M5 - MSN Autos
And one of the things that always made the M5 particularly attractive to a certain kind of customer was that, for all its performance, it was relatively understated and relatively uncomplicated—just plenty of power in a thoroughly developed but straightforward rear-wheel-drive chassis wrapped in a muscular, but really quite subtle, body.
The fourth generation M5 is still the executive's express, but now it has a new edge and a bit less of the old understatement: the new version is more aggressive than ever.
M5 is not expected to arrive in the U.S. until fall of 2005, likely as a 2006 model.

 M5 (Birmingham to Exeter)
Junction 4A to 5 is one of the busiest sections of the M5, partly because a significant amount of traffic from the west of England wishing to use the M40 London route joins at junction 5 (Droitwich) and makes a detour north to junction 4A in order to join the M42.
It also has a close relationship with the A38 from junction 4 onwards and should surely have logically been numbered M38 since it is one of the few major motorways which does not follow a similar route to its correspondently numbered A road.
The M5 continues to wind its way through Somerset and north Devon (wind being the operative word since there seems to be an awful lot of bends on this section).

 Leica M5
When introduced in 1971, the Leica M5 was usually condemned because of its large size-- despite the fact that the M5 was the first M with TTL metering.
The M5 was the first rangefinder with TTL metering, and an excellent metering system it was.
Those four are the Leica A, the M3, the M5, and the CL. Most Leica rangefinders are modifications of the A and M3.

M5® is a “designer” fiber, carefully engineered over a 10-year period by a team of scientists led by Dr. Doetze Sikkema while working for Akzo Nobel, nv, a pharmaceuticals, coatings and chemical company headquartered in the Netherlands.
The design goal set by Dr. Sikkema was to develop a high-strength, synthetic fiber that excelled both as a ballistic fabric and a composites material – a dual-use status that previously had not been successfully achieved by any polymer fiber.
M5® and its precursor monomer are protected by one or more patents worldwide, including United States Patent Numbers 5,674,969, 5,939,553, 5,945,537, and 6,040,478.

The BMW M5 E28 model was first shown at the Automobilsalon in Amsterdam.
A review commented, "the M5 is capable of driving at top speed without making the driver feel nervous, with commendable straight line stability, flat and unperturbed even on fast autobahns curves which wouldn't be considered as such by most cars".

Mostly based on the 540i six-speed, the M5 has firmer shocks and springs and low-friction steel balljoints that replace rubber bushings at the outboard ends of the rear suspension's upper arms.
Despite its hefty 4024-pound curb weight, the M5 is as much at home on a racetrack as it is in the valet-park at any city's most exclusive watering hole.
The M5 is the world's finest sedan with stunning acceleration, eye-popping grip, anchor-imitating brakes, ballerina-like chassis dynamics, decadent luxury, and people-and-stuff moving practicality all rolled up into subtle but aggressive and purposeful-looking bodywork.

When the M5 E28 did finally arrive in the UK in 1985 no one was disappointed, the new M5 had none of the aggressive spoilers to give away the true potential of this “Wolf in Sheeps Clothing”.
A simple designation "M5" on the boot lip and front grill was very discrete almost like the launch event and hardly any announcement was made in the press.
The M5 without any aerodynamic aid is capable of driving at top speed without making the driver feel nervous, with commendable straight line stability, and just as much fun to drive a slow speeds.

The M5 is, and always has been, the distillation of everything that makes BMW cars special.
In today's automotive world of economies of scale, mergers, and collaborations, it is rare for an automaker to design an engine that is entirely new, but the 90-degree, 5.0-liter V-10 is an engine that must have skipped kindergarten because it doesn't share any of its parts.
If the M5 had a normal shifter, its pattern would be a maze so intricate that even the smartest rats lured by the best cheese would have trouble figuring it out.
