I'd say that if you own a M5 you have to track it to justify owning it.

No, the M5 is a better public road car as well. It's tuned much better in terms of throttle and transmission response, for example. Everything feels better, including the steering and brakes. The extra power is noticeable, and you also notice the better handling on mountain roads.
Whether this is worth the price difference or not is a personal decision, but the M5 is absolutely better and more enjoyable to drive even on public roads.
