Anyone actually have an E60 M5 with a 6-speed?

I've read plenty regarding the M5 w/SMG, but not much with 6-speed.
Car and Driver said the V10 seemed better matched with the SMG.

Anyone actually have one? Love to hear about it from an owners point of view.

Thanks in advance,

KING

AMG-ETR (Evan) has one I know for sure. He is an active member of the board.

the M5 was designed with the SMGIII in mind, whilst the 6 spd was after thought for the American market. Personally I don't even think the SMGIII is that good. The wife hates it for sure.
