No, he's got a point...... As stunning and exciting as the M5 is to drive, it's undeniable that its not a car you can relax in. Having owned E39/E60/F10 M5's and 535d's, it's the 535 that you can drive everyday. The power and delivery of the 535 is always there, whereas you have to work the m5 to get the kick (huge as it is). EG - short overtake on single carriageway..... 535 you can just plant the foot and go, whereas the M5 needs to change down, rev high then go..... aroun town, it just feels to 'on edge', reflected by lots of reviewers. You might be a 'special' driver, who knows, but given the choice for a 535/m550 or an M5 for long drives, I, along with most, would walk past the M.
