2003 BMW M5 Sedan 4dr Sedan (4.9L 8cyl 6M)
Fast, Comfortable, Safe
 It's amazing how vault-like the M5 
feels when you get inside and close the 
door.  The interior feels great, the 
seats are the best I've ever had.  I 
find the dash--with its silver aluminum 
trim and black padding--a litte too 
Teutonic for my tastes.  It's a (dark) 
look I'm slowly getting used to, but 
not really warming up to.  
 Surprisingly, the car is quiet under 
all conditions, even full throttle is a 
bit subdued.  It's absolutely 
effortless to drive.  
 It doesn't handle as well as my M3, but 
with 800 more pounds, I guess it isn't 
meant to.  Still, it's no slouch going 
into the twisties.  It feels so 
composed under all conditions.
