I've always had a thing for M5s, especially the old V10s which sounded glorious! But honestly speaking, every time it comes to signing on the dotted line (and I have been very close a few times), in the end I have always gone with the smaller, lighter car which FELT more agile on the cliff-hugging mountain roads I love to go all-out on so much (M3, Boxster S, Alfa 147 GTA, Golf Gti, Megane Trophy, and now M135i). I have about another year in this car and am already starting to wonder what is next for me. But at age 53, I don't yet feel old enough to graduate to a heavy 5 series sedan. I wonder if BMW will have an M2 out by then...
