I am almost with you.

BMW is sending a message with this comparo: We are trying to recreate the masterpiece that is the e39 M5, and improve upon it. Which is a great message. And when you look closely, the new M5 mimics the e39 in many ways. So respect to the BMW designers, and respect to BMW for realizing that classic and simple are a winning combination.

In my eyes the new M5 could only be better if it was 10 - 20% smaller in all dimensions.
