My lease is up on my 2007 550i in 6 months, the next 5 series won't be out for at least a year, I almost traded her in two months ago to the new M3, but decided to wait.

I really like and need the comfort of the 5 series, what would be you choice, I'm really addicted to Bimmers.

If gas mileage is not an issue, I'd go with an M5

The next series 7, although I have not touched her yet, is not really sporty enough, I love the e60, the car is just right, although the interior could still be improved.

Come on.....give it a chance. We know so little about the car at this point to say it's not sporty enough. Check out those dual exhausts on the new pics just out. It looks bad azz!

I appreciate your input, but the dual exhausts, look very lexus, I am glade they put the shift lever back in, I'll take a look but it's just a tad conservative, I really love the 3 and 5 series, now if they offered an M3 with just a bit more comfort, I'd be driving it. I spend alot of time in the car.
