* Exterior style: Much more aggressive bodylines and I have a soft spot for 4 round-exhaust tips
* Interior: I dislike wood trims. So F95 carbon fiber beats G05 aluminum hexagon hands down
* Interior: Like the details in F95, seats, seatbelt, M buttons, etc.

I was certain I'm going to enjoy either driving-wise. So made the decision based on aesthetics (and the fact that F95 is much rarer than G05 on the road).
agree on everything said above
coming from E70 X5M so not too nervous about firm ride either!

just wish F95 had more suspension options to get rid of that hideous wheel gap, u can fix that with body kit and bigger wheels or wait for coiloveres or springs options (I'm sure they coming pretty soon)

I was debating how much it would cost me to get "lower" trim and make it an M and its just doesn't make sense.

M wheels have to go for sure but this is a different story!
