The only area where I will disagree with Carlos having owned both is the steering. To me the steering in the M5 is vastly superior to the E63s. The E63 has weight all the time but no feel vs the M5 which has less weight but more feel especially on turn in which is much better and faster on the M5 then the E63 which really feels nose heavy compared to the M5.
Steering feel is quite subjective, but other than that, you have much more experience than me, as you owned both cars. I just got to drive them extensively from a period. The steering in the M5 feels weird, it feels rubbery. Other than that, the E63's steering feels meatier.

The jerky transmission in the E63 S is quite erratic, because sometimes when coming to a light or stopping, the transmission jerks in the downshifts, sometimes it doesn't. Very weird.
