I was driving on Rt. 1 here in Edison, NJ (fairly close to open road bmw) and i noticed a white e60 a few cars ahead. After a couple of miles I came next to him in traffic and guess what I notice, IT WAS A NEW M5!! 
but as we all know thats not possible yet and low and behold he only two exausts, no side grill, no M-tech kit, no NOTHING except for an actual M5 badge on the back. He also had chrome sides with black front grill, so it wasn't a 545i nor a sport model but he had the nerve to put an M5 badge on it. 
I had respect for him until I realized all this :thumbsdown: but then as I passed I truely felt embarresed by his tackyness. It makes me really wonder that if he's really insecure about himself that he has to put a M5 badge while he cannot afford something even close. :bashwall:

[/quote]My guess is that the 7 series is such a large car, that they don't feel they could do justice in developing a true M car on that platform. The S55 is a very fast luxo sedan...that doesn't handle very well.
