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.

So the power and delivery for the 535d is always there but you have to warm up the M5? So you are saying the 535d is more responsive then the M5 since you have to configure it in order to get it to perform. What is there to work? Both cars you just plant your foot in the petal and the car goes. When it comes to long drives I would prefer the m5 over the 535d/M550i. The car is more luxurious than either of the two and can perform as a race car at the drop of a hat.
