1. Top speed limited electronically.
2. BMW AG test results. Actual acceleration results may vary, depending on specification of vehicle; road and environmental conditions; testing procedures and driving style. These results should be used for comparison only and verification should not be attempted on public roads. BMW urges you to obey all posted speed laws and always wear safety belts.
3. EPA-estimated figures are for comparison purposes only. Fuel economy figures not available at time of printing. Please go to bmwusa.com for the most up-to-date fuel consumption information. Your actual mileage will vary, depending on speed, driving habits, trip length and driving conditions; actual mileage may be lower.
4. Driving over rough or damaged road surfaces, as well as debris, curbs and other obstacles, can cause serious damage to wheels, tires and suspension parts. This is more likely to occur with low-profile tires, which provide less cushioning between the wheel and the road. Be careful to avoid road hazards and reduce your speed, especially if your vehicle is equipped with low-profile tires. Performance tires are not recommended for driving in ice and snow conditions. Please note: M5 models are not equipped with a spare tire and wheel. Any M series vehicle that does not come with a spare is covered in full for towing to the nearest BMW center. This is a LIFETIME benefit that comes with all M models. Wheel and tire specifications are subject to change.
