M5 e60/e39

Had a test drive in an E60 M5 last week...WOW what a car...but here's the thing....also drove an E39 M5 and I enjoyed it even more. Ok not as fast but not far off and felt a much better drivers car and so much more engaging.....It would seem progress doesn't always make things better. Don't get me wrong the E60 was stunning but the E39 didn't feel so clinical.

So here's a thought...E39, suspention upgrade, spacers, light weight wheels....wonder if the CSL wheels would fit an M5.....mmmmh I see a project coming on.
