Don't know how it is where you live but there is already a big wait for the m5 at most places. We're number 10 at our dealer and theyre slated for possibly ten in dec. but their list goes to 35 or so. Also theres going to be a big premium so its a choice you'll have to make.

Straight and track, the x50 will beat the m5. You dont need the flash for that

M5 is nice. But seeing a TT gives me a rush and I've got one. It's that sick.

The new M5 is a fantastic four door sedan that goes like stink. I should knw since I drove one a few months ago. The driving experience is alot less involved than the turbo though. It might not be as fast in a stright line but throw a few curves and see if the M5 can keep up.

Spend some time behind the wheel, it should be very clear which one.

Then ask yourself. How should I spend my own money?

You'll be the driver.

As Arling says, two very different cars, almost with a different purpose.
