My dad wants the car.....if I were to choose........M5 no doubt about it! The only reason the M5 is even being considered is because the M5 is powerful and I like it! But, he wants Automatic.....

I believe that they are going to offer the SMG transmition in the 2005 M5 and that is 100 times better than an auto.

I'll restate my question AGAIN!!! What the Hell is SMG? You seem to be a huge fan of it, and judging from the line-up of vehicles you have.....you must be quite experienced!
