I totally get the e60 is slower in ever measure but for me, the driving experience on a daily basis was way more than the acceleration but much more enjoyable to me was going through a tunnel and hearing the v10 or v8 scream at 8400 with a raspy high pitched race sound (always went catless). The hard shifts of the smg or the dct that just slams the gear home and just the nimbleness of both the e60 and the e92.

It just was a perfect experience and I am wondering if anyone who enjoyed some of those same things is disapointed after buying an f10? Specifically the size, softness of the tranny shifts, lack of screaming engine, lack of high revving engine etc etc
TWO WORDS and that is Hell nooo, I had a modded m3 before this and theirs no comparison. The only thing I miss is the exhaust and the only reason for that is because it was so loud LOL. (It had a full exhaust system) Nothing a meisterschaft can't fix. Theres a reason why they call it the "Beast''.
