Quoting the article:

"E60 M5: a hit, with severe caveats

It is annoying when they chop up an article to generate clicks for sure!

I thought it was interesting that they started out with the goal of a dichotomous choice: hit or miss. Then they couldn't help but start introducing "caveats" on several of the cars, which made it somewhat less dichotomous.
One other review principle they didn't stick to: "Anywho, to keep things as simple as possible, we're only talking about the proper M cars. If we included M-badged cars, we'd have to go through all the skim-milk M Performance cars and every 'genuine M3' in a McDonalds car park."

And then they included tanks like the E70 X5 M...
