Also, embarrassingly, I havent gotten good enough at driving a manual to have one as an everyday driver, and the m5 only comes in manual (the e60 doesnt, but i cant come close to affording that)

Good point on the steering. I've not driven it, so didn't know that. I know there have been advances in the recirculating ball steering, but I wonder how much steering slop actually exists in the e39 m5. That e55 AMG I always thought was a real nice car too.
