I was meaning to ask you: have you driven the M5c? Although it is AWD, EPS, turbo and uses the ZF-stuff I don't like- I was impressed with the drive
Dealer was pushing one on me when I did a lease return recently but I declined a test drive. Just too big. I heard it's an amazing car in many respects. Looks great too.
