I believe the X5 M50i is the best option. Smooth, quiet, comfortable, and still VERY powerful.... even if it doesn't handle curves around the track quite as well.
Does you X5 M50i have DHP and summer rubber?

Last week, I test drove a X5 M50i w/out DHP and no-seasons, and was not that impressed compared to my 2018 X5M. I really thought the M50i would be a nice compromise for my wife and I (X5M is my wife's car but she couldn't careless about performance/handling). However, I tend to drive her car more often than not, and I just wasn't ready to place the order. I'm curious if my impressions weren't fair given the M50i I test drove didn't have DHP and summers. I'm concerned the F95 is going to be priced too much than what we want to spend.
