I ran across F10's on track precisely twice in the past 3-4 years: at NJMP and WGI. For some reason the example at WGI was overheating at the end of each session, and both were hard on the tires. Both driven at low-intermediate level, both were surprised they couldn't keep up with an M3.

Meanwhile I encountered zero E63's.

Not my first, second or third choice for a track car. But would make a fabulous, sinful, license endangering daily driver.
Well, the weight combined w the maintanence and wear on the tires / breaks makes these not very good track options. Now they are in addition auto... BMW knows this market well and they are playing to it perfectly...
