I've done so much homework on the M5 and REALLY love the car. I can see it as a classic, gorgeous lines and superb performance. Difficult and bittersweet decision. I know they are vastly different cars. I also know that the M5 is a better fit for my lifestyle. I also think that the M5 looks better than the new M3.
However, I want a manual transmission and it just felt a little awkward to me in the M5.
I also feel that BMW needs to make the M5 a little bit lighter and improve steering feel. I know that an M5 is in my future just not right away.
So for now I'm gambling on a new M3. I'm betting that they sorted out the all electric steering! And, if not, I will flip it for an 2015 M5!!!

congrats man!
but i think it is not wise to get first year production car, until all issues are sorted...
just from my experience with m5 |
Agreed. However, if you definitely want the manual transmission then the M3/4 is the way to go.
Having just moved from an E90 M3 to the M5 I am thrilled with the switch. So much more comfortable when I want it to be and a total beast when I need it to be.
