I have to say that I never felt in love with the E60 and the F10, something special was missing in those generations. The G30 to me feels again a lot what a 5-series should drive like since the E39. The looks, ride, handling, quietness, steering, comfort are near damn perfect. I truly believe the G30 is the best 5-series ever in production. When my lease is up next year, I plan on getting another 540i again. I love it that much.
My lease is up in 2 years time, and I think I will have to get another 540i as well. We don't get the M550i here, and the M5 is out of my price range.

Only worry with the new 540i will be the new instrument cluster. I far prefer my layout to that of my wife's new X5.
