BMW M5 "Jahre" limited edition

Why the 7 speed box? Why not the 8? (or is that the US variance?).

That is part of the charm...

1. You don't need to drive like you stole it everywhere (like some folk in nice cars seem to think they have to)
2. You are less likely to be 'challenging' or 'threatening' to other cars - saves idiots from trying to race you
3. If you really needed it, you have nigh 600 ponies on tap

Of course it is easier said than done - having all that power is very addictive, and you will often find that you will struggle to keep it legal in standard daily drives, let alone when you're trying to make progress.

Thats pretty much the point in the M5 - which was always about speaking softly but carrying an enormous stick.

It is, after all, an enormously powerful BMW 5 Series, not a Lambo.

Really?

I'd rather light up the rears, like a boss.

Then again, for £85k or so I'd buy something else.

The interior doesn't look anything different to the '54 plate 120d we had - the only difference seems to be suede/stitching instead of naff plastic; looks almost identical.

You think the interior of the F10 looks 'almost identical' to that of a 10 year old 1 Series?!
