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.
 
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 ?:t-hands:

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

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.
