N63 V8
-5,6 50i has fuel injectors, MAF, battery, crankcase vent lines, fuel pressure sensor, engine’s vacuum pump

Either going for G series, I do not know what other options there are. Which is why I have been thinking about switing to:
Mercedes C400/C450
Lexus IS350 Fsport
Infiniti Q50 3.0s/RedSport

You got a point. The F series might be lighter, more fuel efficient and even faster on paper but it doesn't feel solid or inspire any real feel like the E9X.

Hopefully with the G series they will get back to the traditional driving experience and feel. Something has to change.

That Q50 red sport seems like a real winner. Supposed to have great tuning potential. I just don't know how it drives. I still can't get in to Mercedes. Felt like you don't get much for your money. Comfortable but not fun to drive unless it has an AMG badge.
