Ya, we call this the "FJ Symdrome".

sorry
what I mean is our e60 pre-lci or lci needs the 6 bars to match the F10 stiffness
the F10 is built very solid. that why it handle very well around corner.
for a 1.85 ton car it drives very well.
the F10 is about 250kg more than my lci and 300kg to my pre lci
I like to see MB 1.85 ton cars handle like the F10.
yes danny has 1 and also Jacky too.
I have tested the car 2 times and 2nd time I took it around sai kung twisty roads drive at 70+
the sale guy say "you can put your foot down if I what" so I did.

havent yet tried the f10 but really dislike the handling of the 5gt. interestingly, the 7er w the same chasis was a joy to drive and felt 5cm shorter all round.

to get close to that feeling on our e60 you need to add all the 6 bars and lower the car.
there is 1 thing that will never fix or get better and that is the computer contro streeling wheel :thumbsdown:
this is on all new BMW which I, keith and KC hate.

I agree on the size, it dose feel much bigger than the 2.5cm all round, it almost feel like driving a 7er. :thumbsdown:

according to 5g, the diesel ver of f10 they tested had a fair bit (ok its all relatively) of body roll and understeer but still much better and faster than the jag.

What I mean is the looks, not the performance.
It need mods to look good on the out side.
our e60 dont need mods and still looks sporty.

here are some just to refresh our minds of the F10 mods.
