With this car and the new M5, I want to say that the characteristics of the motor are going to be very similar, making it ever so difficult to choose between one or the other.
The E60 550i never was a TTV8, are you impaired? Get it right before making claims like "torque that rivals the stuff out of Affalterbach" because 360 lb/ft is lower than last generation AMG models.
