Pistonheads.com article - the M5 is "inspired"

Are you sure? To me it was not a good rating of the M5. Just to compare, I read his review of the 3 series and it got a better response than the M5???

"On the autoroute it all felt downright boring at sane speeds, too -- this vehicle's natural gait is about 130mph and that can get you in trouble more or less everywhere."

You got to drive in triple digit to get some excitement?

I must say, one of the best reviews i've read so far. Ok, what happened to the satnav, but as he says, who cares when you got this sort of car? :1:

It can hang with the Aston Martin DB9 and Ferrari 612 Scaglietti and taken on purely on merit is better than either at a fraction of the price. Forget the ‘rivals’ from AMG and Jaguar, they’d be lucky to stay in the same time zone on these roads.

Considering its looks, weight and versatility, that makes it a phenomenal car, one of the very best in the world. It’s genius.

I'd say that's a pretty nice review.

Looks like Anzir and I liked the same line:

Very subjective indeed, but that matters a lot in cars of this caliber.
