Ha! Ain't that the truth! Lol! The Macan is their most important model and the real money maker for them these days absolutely. Sadly, you are correct though. 99% of M5 buyers are not the type to go to the race track or do a spirited canyon run every weekend, but then again neither are Porsche 911 buyers either. Heck even Lambo Huracan owners don't even drive that car to the full potential on a regular basis. For everyday usable performance, yes the F90 M5 is currently at its zenith. I'll make an assessment when I get my chance at behind the wheel of an F90 M5, and I know it'll be fast, but whether I'll actually enjoy the drive, I don't know. I will be the first one to admit though that a bone stock Pre-LCI F10 M5 was definitely not a great drivers car either, but with modifications it has become one of the very best. So we shall see.
