The true ultimate flagship of BMW land is the M760i and it is not a “full M” nor should it be.
Couldn't have said it better! If one is looking for comfort they would probably advise staying away from any Full M vehicle. It all starts at taste/needs and ends at taste/needs. To me I am power oriented, sport inspired and enjoy a rough ride, so to me the X5M will be the cream of the crop. The issue with this comparison is its not really a comparison in the equal sense.
