Weight gain is never good, but when put in perspective, the added weight coupled with AWD and an increase in HP and TQ make the 2014 E63 faster in nearly every regard than the 2013...

I fall into the camp that wished BMW would make an AWD M5 since I need to make it to work regardless of the weather and I can't really have two cars. Yes, I know, snow tires, but I would prefer AWD AND snow tires. (Belt and suspenders )

Why don't you get an X6M? Looking at your sig it seems you like SUVs.
