The E60 had an amazing balance which the F10 lost. The day to day drive was marred by the SMG transmission but on the move it was an amazing car. The engine was just a gem and was typical of the exotic NA era type of engines. Anybody that does not appreciate that is someone that has really owned one. It was incredibly unreliable though.
