One thing. Did you feel like the thrust while accelerating hard was going to tear your head apart? I drove the new GTR and it felt like my head was going to separate doing hard LC. Totally different feeling in E60 that felt likeafterburners up top and nothing down low.

I suspect M5 F10 is more like the GTR feel of acceleration from low rpms and even sustained very high speeds.
Yes, the F10 M5 is more like the GTR feel of acceleration. The thrust is literally all over rev band, but it especially feels like afterburners above 5,000rpm when you are approaching peak horsepower around 6,000rpm. For comparison and experience I have also driven a modded 2012 GTR and modded 650hp and 620tq Merc CLS 63 AMG.
