No need to test your car lar...I seldom drive other people's car because I don't like others drive mine either. They are all our baby!
if no compare then you dont know what is good or bad.
only test will tell and you know word can not say much

no need for M5 just add AS and this will fix the robot steerling feel

The old ver of as on keiths car is quite robotic, heard the latest ver is much better but the m's suspension set up is diff and that gives a better steering feel, apparently.

On the other hand, drivers feel can be important to some. In The old days, tests Inc score on drivers subjective feel, don't seem to see this in te recent test.

A 535 with active steering is still not a true "Performance" car... It makes it a much better drivers car, but the M suspension, engine, transmission etc...is still a big difference from the regular 5er.

drove keith car all day in the afternoon on saturday and love the AS if it so much easy when turning 90 degree corner and when parking too.
also the FSD is very nice, if I ever fix the shock it will be this for shore. The feeling is almost same as the OEM
this you must try.
will have this option on my next BMW if I dont get Audi A7 sportback
