Thanks Philios for the article. I awaited it impatiently.

Definitively in this comparo, I would take the M5, but versus an Audi RS6 I cannot decide.

I agree, that maserati is a work of art. Despite of all the specs the M5 cannot match the elegance, class and passion of the italian.



However i will admit that even as ferrari fan this is the only car that could sway me from the Quattroporte in the very fast/luxury sedan class.
