Funnily enough a mate of mine had one for quite a while, he said it was a great car, especially with the Evolve exhaust (sounded stunning, very Lambo esque).

As a daily it would kill the wallet, he often struggled to see more than 13/14 mpg as an average, it's a very thirsty beast, round town it seemed to end up in single figures, he never saw more than 20mpg even on a long run.

Funnily enough he ditched it, then got himself a mint E39 M5 which he now has supercharged it!

I personally think there are better daily options than a E60 M5.
