I've been driving BMW's since 1976 (started with a 2002)... and currently own a 650i Convertible (that I L O V E)... and have nothing but good things to say about BMW's... but that M5 and I did not see eye to eye. LOL

I truly couldn't get rid of it fast enough.

I'm a T O R Q U E guy... give me bottom end grunt every time I touch the throttle... don't make me have to rev it up to feel I've got some motor there.. And BMW makes a great automatic - and they have killer 6 speeds - so why they can't get that dumbass "not an auto and not a stick" transmission figured out is beyond me. I can drive a stick WAY smoother than this thing shifts. And if you're going to drive an automatic - then just give me an automatic!

That's just my opinion... and so far -- I'm thinking the resale on these shows more people think like I do, than not.

I'm glad you like yours! They are a very nice automobile. But not ready for prime time in my opinion.:cheers:

I am kinda partial to viper V 10's. You want to talk about low end grunt, over 600 lbs to the wheels, after a few mods on my buds 2008 ACR.
