Hi wisesoul to start off the M5 has 680Nm of torque of course the take off is better than the previous M5. If you see the video that was the actual launch from the car. The DCT is extremely quick like your M3 only slightly faster as for the steering feel I like it best in the sport mode all the time nicely weighted and not too nervous on high speed. The sound of the M5 to me is fine if you use it as a daily car not too noise but if you are the type that wants a lot of noise then I would suggest you change to a louder one. I have in fact suggested to them to come out with a sport exhaust for people who likes a sportier sound.
