If i were you i would take either car 5 or car 6. I like more car 5 in terms of colours and interior but since car 6 is brand new, you can be sure and that way you can brake it in yourself.

My Ride: 2005 525i : Alpine White, Steptronic, Black Interior with Amethyst Leather & Popular Grain Brown, 17" 122-Style Rims, Adaptive Bi-Xenon Headlights, Auto Dimming & Folding Mirrors, Advanced A/C, Sports Steering Wheel, Electrically Adjustable Steering Column, Extended Lighting Package, PDC, Sliding Armrest, Bus Navi, Hi-Fi Sound System (MP3 DVDs), CD Changer, Rear Sunshades..
MODS:M-tech front bumper, Painted Grill, Installed Aux-In, Garage Door Opener (Overhead Compartement), ///M Steering wheel, Wood hand brake trim, Wood gear-shift lever. 35% Tint all around..
Got, ACS Roof Spoiler, but not installed..
MBs have a ton of reliability problems..but they also have alot of power...
the CLS does look good...
id go for the CLS or the M5..
as a daily car the CLS has the comfort and power.. auto gearbox... but you already got a 7er and a S-class,,,
but for the experience the m5 is amazing, SMG, as a track car.. it will be alot of fun,, but i dont think it will be as practical as the CLS...
Id get the CLS...

nice spread of answers:
now lets have a look:
Hythe : No alpina for me, since BMW bulgaria will not accept any warranty it may have, and will not repair it... How stupid is that ?
gpt: Although this may be true of your average C180Kompressor, i dont think you have driven AMG products lately?
Anyways, ill make sure i get to spend some quality time in demo AMGs and ///Ms and get a good feel for them. So far i have driven more ///Ms, whereas i have only been a passenger in AMGs...
