may sound nice but i really do hate BMW aswell a PORSCHE.

reasons:
BMW always overcharge for something not as good as it is made out to be, i would much rather save thousands and not get an m5 and instead get a monaro VXR. they are so much cooler and you dont look like a snob business man!

PORSCHE, why can't they just put their engines in a better place?
MID ENGINE is oviously better but no the arrogant germans just cant acept this a have to for full on rear engine.
