I say Z06, even though the M5 is more luxurious and my get more women. The Z06 is more impressive when someone recognizes what it is.

Z06; think it will be more fun, although they're both nice cars.

Z06 easy...Much nicer car in my opinion (cooler to drive anyway i'd think).

Z06! I really am not a huge fan of the new 5 series style. They hired a new head designer and he started with the 7-series, the new 6...and then the 5...nahh! I dont care about the 500HP, just not my style. More of a Benz person, and I saw concepts for the new 3 too...not a fan either.

Anyway, regardless of my blabber, its really no question!

I don't think this site would give a fair opinion since we all seem to be gear heads. Z06 will rule here and I agree even as nice as the new BMW is. I think a matching yellow Z06 would go better in the garage.

Definately the Z06. Those Germans have been pissed at us for the World War II thing for a very long time. They have been getting back at us one BMW and Mercedes at a time. The Z06 is a world beater.
