My dad has decided to get a 745Li.....but the M5 550 HP is very tempting.
What would you guys choose?
Thx.

M5... The amount of space the 7 provides is virtually pointless for a luxary seden.. With the M5, you get best of both worlds.

Since the 7 series never grew on me, I go for the M. But then I would have gone for the M in any case.

THe M5 is a sports sedan that be a family car, but at the same time is just about an all out race car and it looks very hot.
