Anything 65 is Awesome. My CL65 is still the best road car I've ever driven and I want one again.
I imagine the new TT 63 comes pretty close.

I do have a soft spot for the sound of the na 63's..

I've had both the E60 M and currently own an F10 M car. They're quite different from each other. The E60 is pretty much how Speed5 describes. I had it at RA and MidOhio and it could dance. The F10 M is quite a bit different. It's a much better long distance road car and it feels heavier. The LSD is a big plus. With 540 hp it has more hp than you can use on the street. It all comes down to what you use the car for. IMHO, BMW makes the most luxurious yet understated interiors in the biz.

I wouldn't call it my daily since I only drive it when I need to take the family out, but I really enjoy my E63 Wagon. It amazes me how much cargo can be stuffed inside. Only downside is that it drinks gas like its 1999.
