Thanks, I hope you're right. I thought I was getting "M5 lite" until the real M5 comes out, but what I got was my dad's old Cadillac Eldorado Touring Coupe.

The other thing that bugs me is that you can barely hear the engine at all...this seems to be present across the new 5 series platform...even the M5, unfortunately. They mention the same thing in the Autocar review of the M5. I think they made it a bit too refined, and as a result it feels a bit boring.

It is quick, though...it just doesn't feel like it is. It s the opposite of my old Vantage (when it was stock), which was loud and felt fast but was slow....this is quiet and feels slow but is fast.
