I pointed this out in another thread...in the US, the M5 has been almost universally panned, for ridiculous reasons. Whereas in Europe, it seems to be extremely well-reviewed. They don't get caught up in the silly BS of basically hating anything that isn't a clone of the E39 M5. In fact, the M6 GC has been well-reviewed over here as well, despite being almost the same exact car, just slightly bigger and heavier. I really think that most of the poor reviews over here have come about due to bias. I'm just glad to see Chris Harris get some more seat time in a 4 door M car. I trust what he says.
I must say I concur! I would honestly think he is the only guy that I listen too regards what a car is actually like
