Honestly, I liked all four of them. For me I would prefer the Porsche because I don't need 4 seats. The E63 was noticeably slower than the M5. The R8 is a lot of fun and sounds so good but the Porsche just runs away from it.
I don't think BMW messed up but I do think they need to get on board with making their cars lighter. Audi, Porsche, and Mercedes are all focusing on that now.

E 63 is faster than the M5 with the performance package (in a straight line). |
Not true, have raced e63 and cls63 many many times and m5 has slight advantage and starts walking both of them over 100mph.
