I had what most would believe the closest equivalent of the M5 bought from Porsche - the 928S4. Luxury, stealth, a little overweight, but a great V8 engine. Even in 1991, top speed was 172mph.

The 928 technology was always way ahead of it's time and the best example I know is the beautiful '95 GTS model. I'm sure 911 folks think of it as the "pig" Porsche, but it really was the best Autobahn cruiser around.
