The sixth-generation BMW M5 earned rave reviews when it was released for the 2018 model year. Car lovers praised its powerful V8 engine, responsive handling, all-wheel drive performance and luxurious cabin.

BMW upped the ante by releasing a special-edition model, limited to only 400 examples worldwide. Called the 2018 BMW M5 First Edition, this lightly driven example is available for sale at Isringhausen BMW.

The M5 First Edition has stunning Frozen Dark Red Metallic paintwork and high-gloss Shadow Line trim with extended features. This means the kidney grille, the M gills and the four tailpipes of the sports exhaust all come in high-gloss black. Twenty-inch seven-double-spoke light-alloy wheels in black complete the car’s stunning exterior.

The BMW M5 First Edition also has an individual flavor inside. The Piano Finish Black applications are complemented by a plaque on the center console (“M5 First Edition 1/400”), pointing to the exclusivity of this BMW M5.

Under the hood is the newest version of BMW’s 4.4 liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which produces 600 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque. The 2018 BMW M5 can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds, making it the fastest accelerating BMW at the time of its release. In fact, Car and Driver claimed the 2018 BMW M5 tied a Tesla Model S P90D when racing to 60 mph … and pulled ahead by 100 mph and in the quarter-mile!
