So it is the BMW M5, first launched in 1998, which beats the new kids on the block.
Quote:
These cars aren’t about just power, torque and top speed. They’re about sensations and emotions, and the M5 scores highly in both departments. It succeeds in being both smooth and edgy, subtle and lurid, light-footed and rock-solid. It blends objective virtues like power and torque with subjective assets like sensitivity, tactility and value for money. It yields, all things considered, the most rewarding drive. It wins, against our expectations, against the odds and against some of the finest cars money can buy.
