It's all been said before. The refinement, tech, ride and versatility of the f10 dwarf the capabilities of the e60, and I couldn't possibly go back... BUT... With the e60 I never thought about owning a second car explicitly for sporty driving. I definitely do want a smaller companion for the f10.
Could not have said it better myself. If it was not for SMG I might have kept the V10 forever - I found that in city driving the e60 was just out of place, especially the transmission. The F10 is a better all around car but gives up some of that raw, race, handling feel that previous M5s prioritized.
