I like the jokes in the this thread so much more than the styling of either car. But if given a choice, I'd take the BMW

I find it odd that while traditionally BMWs win comparisons because of their sportiness, this time around the new 5 is much softer and less appealing to spirited driving, YET the sportier M still lost. I guess alot of people just love BMWs, or alot of people just hate Infinitis, or both

The aerodynamics kit on the new M37/56 is way too wild/sporty for a car in this class. Would look perfectly in place as an IPL kit for the G though.
