But we're talking about M5's. What is an M5 - an M5 is a fast, luxury saloon designed to carry people in comfort at high speed. In this function the E34 cant even be compared to the M5 in anything other than they carry a similar badge.
With one small addition, in that it can "shrink" around you when pressing on! I'd like to know if the F10 can do that, because the E34 can from what I've experienced. It'll never turn itself into an M3, but it seems to be able to hide its weight and size very quickly down a sweeping single-lane road
