The e90/92 m3 v8 IS character. Exciting car. Sounds amazing, reacts sharply on all ends.

I don't care if turbo makes it faster - it will dull the car compared to the previous v8.

Hopefully it can be at least as good as the 1m.
I agree with this but the S63tu is unrelenting you feel like you are taking off on the runway the surge is monstrous and the power all around... It's like a veyron 1/2 and do agree of its heft and aloofness with steering and front end placement...I miss the one I had but love the S65 even more... I think the M5 is a great family car
