'19 G63 Ed 1,'18 M5, '16 G63,'12 458 , '11 E63, Brabus SL55-K8, '10 S63, '94 E500 "Wolf", '91 560SEC
All due respect to the E60 M5, it should be on the list just for the sound of that V-10.

Sorry E63 folks haha.

Terminator Cobra is not even mentioned, and he has a Challenger listed. This writer is a RETARD. He praises the E55 for its moddability and then doesnt have a Terminator Cobra listed. The editor needs to put down the Car and Driver he is reading for his info.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
I see more woman driving Camaro SS's than men, by a wide margin. Sorry, it's a chick's car. M5 is just not imposing enough. And 3 series are for cheerleaders. LOL. j/k Sorry. There is also a Mustang listed, so that represents them all, cannot list all of them for crying out loud.

But then, I also see most H1s driven by woman, or perhaps guys with feminine attributes???
