If we have any complaint about the new M5, it's that there is just too much gap between comfort and sport. In Comfort, the car feels like a 528 -- not a bad thing, but not the reflexes you want from a six-figure sedan. Obviously, the slower throttle response and short shifting are used to maximize the benefit of forced induction, but we wish there were something like Sport Minus Mode. But on the whole, that's a minor hiccup. From driver feedback to all-out performance, this is probably the best M5 ever.

This is exactly so mundane about current M3 also, that in comfort mode, it is like grand father's car and feels lesser than a new 2012 twin turbo 328 or a 335i, or is, but in sports it has an insatiable hunger and thirst to run, that is not possible to full fill in regular driving
