You love your ///M5 because ...
... it's a luxury sedan and has no problem facing off a McLaren ;-)
Let me hear your thoughts ... Of course I am completely aware that these are two entirely different cars. But I have to say just judging from this picture, I have a hard time deciding which one is the hotter car - in fact I don't, IT'S THE ///M5 ;-)))

because its faster than my 458 in a lot of scenarios (except braking and proper handling) but its quieter, more luxurious (x10), i can fit 3 girls in it, and its a bit more daily drivable.
and my 458 was modded and i had almost 12K miles on it... so plenty of comparison, lol. F10 M5's have almost no equal in my use cases at this point in time. No other car can do everything it can at the level I want it to at this point and still be what it is at the same time (No Merc, No Audi, No Porsche). http://instagram.com/p/h-HxSrs8zW http://instagram.com/p/h8zJ50o73z

Because it's one of the few well balanced, refined, luxurious, aesthetically appealing, practical in dry climates sedans that I can get with a banging bang and olufsen sound system and a 6 speed manual transmission.

I second that! I have wanted an M5 since I was 12. Worked my ass off going to college, then started a small business, grew the business over the past 12 years and was finally was able to comfortably afford the car at 36. 24 years in the making. That's why I love my M5!

Much like others... It's been an icon since I was a kid. It's sets the bar for it's class. It's great to be the car everyone is trying to compare/compete with.

Because it does everything I ask of it in the moment, which is a lot! I drive my car HARD, picking my spots obviously. I get out of it (like I have exited my prior M3s and M5s) and I go WOW. Almost every time. Best M yet and by a margin.
