I really don't understand why so many people seem to think that each new generation of M5 needs 90+ more horsepower than the predecessor. Will they expect 700bhp for the 6th generation model? Eventually, all that horsepower will cause a car to be un-streetable without some stability and/or traction control aides intervening. Is it just about bragging rights, or do most buyers have the talent to wield all that power on the track?
