You talk about the fit and finish of the car and the electronics but what will be using the car for? Do you need to carry a family regularly and do you need boot (trunk) space to match? If so then the 5 Series is for you. Start with the practicalities of the car and once you have that side of things sorted look at the fit and finish which is always going to be superior in the 5. That's just how BMW rumbles to distinguish their more expensive models.

In the US your speed limits are quite often restricted to 60mph on the motorways so why would anyone need the gas guzzler M550i engined beast? Ok if there is money to be thrown at it fine but the 540i is a great engined car.
