On the other hand, current M5 has incredibly heavy steering in sport + mode (it's really, really too much), but still the feedback is very limited.

Audi on the other hand is worst than playing on the Sony PS4
Thats because it is a sin to say anything negative about a Porsche

Always enjoyed articles from Georg Kacher been reading him for years in Automobile magazine here in the States. Find him honest and to the point. Was thinking of picking up a CP F10 535 but may save my pennies for a G30!

I am not a happy camper.

The rear end is too F30 for me. I have a deposit on the new F90 M5. It was going to be my 4th M5. But after seeing the rear. I really can't stand it. It just scream cheap and small to me.

I don't know what else i can say.

The new Panamera is really growing on me.

Steering feedback

The steering is poor. What a shame that BMW has moved so far from a decade ago when they had outstanding steering feedback. I already miss my Cadillac ATS-V.

Seems like BMW and many other car manufacturers literally move backwards in innovation or feel. Great job BM dubs

Yeh it's not great , shame as otherwise I think it's one of their best
Now if it had the steering feel from my previous E39 530i msport that would be something else!

This time next year we'd have probably all read the reviews on the prototype g60.

I do think the designers and engineers should go and drive some of the older BMWs and see what they were like, back in the day when they really were the ultimate diving machine and that those words were not just a slogan.
