I had an E39 between 2002-2004. It was sublime for the time … the engine, V8 sound, refinement, cabin quality, driving pleasure etc … what was amazing was the ride quality of the E39 M5, which was so much better sorted than the 528i with Sports suspenion that I had prior.
Ride quality is something that BMW need to sort out on their M Comps … in many of the modern M Comp models the “Comfort” setting for the suspension is a misnomer especially when coupled with the horrendous state of the UK’s roads. It takes away from the pleasure of the ownership experience unfortunately.
