I miss the old BMW simplicity.

For me the best M5 ever, was the previous M5 E39. That car was simple, fast and jolly good fun.

The new one is certainly a good car, but, it is unbelievably complicated.

The new V10 engine sounds crap when idling, the torque is not powerful enough, the SMG Gearbox is jerky and the differential is notoriously fragile.

I don't want a Stupid "M" Button to have the full 507 Bhp. I want the whole 507 when starting the engine.

And why the f*** I'm not allowed to use the "Launch Control" until the first service? Godamn you BMW!

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

I wanted to poke the flame on this poll a little bit and start posting some pictures. This way we can decide which car is better looking in terms of aggressiveness and overall character. Looks are really the only thing we can determine and make up our mind on.

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

I dont need pictures to decide which looks the best, M5 is one hell of a looker in real-life and thats what matters

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

I agree this thread should have been based on looks, cause the E63 looks more aggressive and stronger than the M5.Even the engine is more aggressive looking. Heck This is the new 514hp Hammer!






......................... I can`t wait for the Bi-Turbo E63!

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

I voted for the M5 and I think its pretty obvious why.

BUT just to play devils advocate here, The techno-gadgetry is quite really annoying IMHO. I don't mind iDrive at all and is quite easy. I don't mind the M button, but what I do not like are all the options you get. Should I choose P500 or P500S (lots of difference but still irritating to choose). Should I choose S4 or S5 or S3??? If I want to get P500S with just smooth shifts (S2/S3), I have to activate M Mode and then reduce the gear shift speed. This is quite distracting if your driving. It was good initially when it was a "cool" factor but now using the car everyday, its just become a pain. All of this however you forget when you activate the one button. I've set it to MDM, P500S, S5, Sport suspension, & Sport active seats.

One more thing, anyone looking for a comfortable family/sports car might be better off going for the E63, as I've heard only complaints about the rear seating being too low down. I don't know what they talk about but most of the people who sat in the rear complained about it.

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

These kinda polls are ridiculous , I mean obviously there are more BMW fans than MB fans , and more over that , Im sure Audi fans and Porsche fans vote BMW when none of their marks are in the poll .... So why bother ?

Like I said in the beginning of this thread. This thread was created too soon, I dont understand why there has to be a new poll the same day we see a new car being relesed. We dont know much about the car yet.

Re: Poll: M5 vs. E63

The S-Class and SL-Class always seems to slaughter the competition in the polls doesn`t thay!

If it`s one thing I object to about this poll, it`s that we don`t know what the E63 is capable of yet, so we get the typical Beemer fans with the M5 and Merc fans with the E63.
