So it really depends what your looking for. From what I hear the GTr is an amazing car that is technically perfect and fast.

But what I hear of the M5 is it is a car that is a lion when it needs to leap and calm as cat when you need it to be.

Plus it has SOUL.

I can't wait till the day I can get an M5. Or hope that one day the M550d will come to Canada.

Just my 2cents.

if you want to get an m5, and the most important factor for you is SOUL, then you should not get the f10 m5.

you should get the e60 m5.

a car with more soul , i would suspect cannot be had for under 150k. maybe even 200,000K + (ie. 458)

especially considering the price difference right now for an f10 as opposed to an e60; double the price, for less driving pleasure...

reasons i can recomend the f10 over an e60 are if you just want the latest and greatest, the most comfort possible, and the absolute FASTEST m5 yet.

but for pure SOUL, from the m5's the e60 stands alone.
