edit...just read the whole post and saw you are getting the E39 M5. GREAT car! I went E60. Love it! You are right. NOTHING like driving an M car. Chris (umichchris) encouraged me to make the move and not look back and he was right. You can do EVERYTHING to the 550i and it is never going to be an M5. The high revs, the overall responsiveness of the car-a completely different BEAST! I know you love the E39 and I think they are SWEET cars but if you have not driven an E60 you really need to take an hour or so and do it. Much like the 550 to M5 comparison, there is a world of difference in the E39 and 60 in terms of power and comfort features. The E60 walks all over the E39. That may not be important to you and that's cool. But after spending the money like I did (and you did) and losing so much $ in doing so by selling so quickly, I wish I would have done more looking before jumping. I would have bough the F10 (more likely the M6). In fact, I almost did a few weeks ago. It is in my budget but the thought of tossing away so many thousands of dollars AGAIN after only a few thousand miles...well that didn't appeal to me. Don;t get me wrong my E60 totally rocks. I have it all tricked out with Vorsteiner, RPI, Eurocharged and HRE and it is bad to the bone but I would still have been smart to weigh options more thoroughly. Just a thought. :-)
