I loved the gear ratio of the SMG - test driving a Hamann tuned E63 M6 (with Kreissieg F1 exhaust). If I have to own one car for the rest of my life, S85 powered vehicle is on the top of my list.
The V10 M5/6 with even just Xpipe and exhaust is a life-affirming experience.

Not even getting out of an F90 M5 and driving the V10 is able to mitigate its allure. It is just absolutely incredible.

Two friends have them in 6MTs and I have first dibs. Even if it means moving to 6 cars I'll do whatever it takes to buy one.



By the way -- please buy a +2008. You can't buy a earlier version
