What can I say, I'm in love with my car. I also have a 3 Series, but this, my friend, is top of the line. I wouldn't trade in this car for anything. I call her my baby! Yes, she's a girl. She's the best.

This is superb to drive, I have some issues with the transmission but the dealership took care of it. There is a unit that goes on top of the transmission it has a harness that goes bad, I took the harness and fix the charred wires and presto problem solved.

Buyer Beware

Buyer beware: There’s a reason for all those mediocre reviews out there in the automotive press. In truth, many of the reviews sound as though the writers think even less of the car than what they actually write, but are reluctant to bash a car with the reputation of the M5. Well that reputation was built from the first three US models. This one is fundamentally different. This is a Mercedes posing as a BMW. Its all about speed and comfort and lacks the handling of the earlier cars. Its very heavy and you feel every pound. It about cruising; not about flogging down a twisty road in the countryside. You feel disconnected from the road, there is no sense of immediacy on turn in.

Not up to BMW M standards

Too heavy, not a precise and agile M car as its forebears were. Most of the performance is completely unusable in daily driving. Prepare to be beat at every stoplight unless you are really on it. I think J. Clarkson said it best: completely annoying until you hit the M button. Too bad you can't use that button for 95% of your driving; meaning you will have a really annoying car for 95% of the time you are driving. Sold mine a bought Porsche: a massive improvement in just about every way.
