Hi all I just returned from brooklands. Had a great time there. It is as I was told a large car showroom, had an hour on the track in the new E63 biturbo... firstly the looks just did not do it for me, mainly the front end, somethings not quite right also the car looks very boxy and slab sided not slick in anyway.. the performance and sound however are a different story.. this thing has bags of low down torque, more like the e55k very gutsy low down rather than having no balls then everything at the top end.. I do think that this is going to be the next true succesor to the e55k.. its just getting used to its rather dissapointing shape. However once you have driven it the looks seem to become less important...
 
I sort of know what you mean , there is a white one in my area and the first time i saw it , I thought 'blimey. That's ugly !' But it grows on you , the big goldfish mouths either side , they start to look pretty !

Love it now ! And the sound ......
