E39...but then again, I'm biased.

I have total respect for the S85 in the E60, but could never warm up to it for DD use because if you are really having fun with in above 6K RPM, you are in "go to jail" territory, and below 5K RMP the lack of torque is noticeable. Still, the sheer gleeful insanity of shoving a V-10 into an M5 probably makes it #2 for me. But if I was going to buy a 2nd M5 it would the the E28 or E34.
