Did you find 306hp is not enough for you? I have difficulty to master the 272hp.
ST; I think becasue E60 is much lighter than F10, some 150kgs.
Making that even worse, F10's overall-tire-diameter is bigger too. (ie haveier tire & wheel per corner)
So combine those 272 ps with BMW's mighty NA6,which always keeps very high-revs when push hard, it is no unusual found that 272 ps?306 ps. And yes I find 306 ps is sometimes difficult to use up all at cornering.
But I just like to have faster straight-acceleration, especially after traffic light.

No money... preparing for the market to crash soon and then i can start looking at property!

hahaha!

New M5 is tempting though... im really liking the look of the F10. Even a 550i would be nice!!!
