Default Matt Farah Pushes 6-Speed E60 M5 Through the Mountains



A 2007 E60 BMW M5 might not be a rare bird, but a 2007 E60 BMW M5 with a six-speed manual transmission absolutely is.

My Ride: M5 SMG
Model Year: 2006
Default

I have a low mileage 2006 M5 with SMG, and after loading the euro software, it shifts pretty well, but I do find it annoying fighting the SMG while breaking. The software is very slow to downshift. My 05 545 is a six speed, and it really gets up and goes with ease, but it doesn't have the M5's double clutch which I heard can make for a pretty heavy clutch pedal.

But enjoy, because 6 speed M5's seem pretty rare.
