That was my wife's comment when driving her Ford Explorer after having driven my 545 for 3 days while I had her Explorer on an out-of-town trip with the kids.? I have to say, I agree with her.? Ain't it great to drive a BMW!

it is definitely good to drive some other car for a while then you will appriciate E60 so much. What is also a great feeling is to drive E60 after two weeks of summer vacations. Feels like heaven and such a great car

It was only the engine power that made you feel so good.

I do not think you need to step all the way up the the M5 to best the SL500. I would take my 545 over the SL 500. I am not talking about off the line speed (I do not know what the SL 500 does, but over all driving experience.

I have to agree, there was alot difference in the power.But i look at the benz stats and it says that the difference between a 530 and sl500 in hp is only 50hp.Is 50 hp that much diff?? I thought the SL 500 was about 350 at least.I cant wait for my 507hp m5
