That is your opinion.

It’s a slower car - in every way - that is a fact. That isn’t important to you.

I think that sums it up.

I think you are getting personally offended for the fact that I stated what majority of people thinks about YOUR M5. but the truth is 530i does look very similar to M5 to non-enthusiasts' eyes. same as C300 looks very similar to C63. they are indeed different in my eyes.

M5 is in fact, yes I agree with you, a better performing car than GT63 as shown in this test. but I'm stating that performance per dollar is not the only buying factor for the rest of the world.

M5 has been that car that punches above its weight class for the past 20 - 30 years while looking like a normal family sedan. and this generation M5 follows this philosophy.
