Just like New M340 has nothing to give to old M3.

Days of manual rear wheel drive light M cars are over.

Today they are all heavy 4 wheel drive High HP machines.

X5 M is as heavy as M50- there is no magic, they will be very close on the track

- similar suspension
- limited slip differential
- Same weight
I’m just saying the M50 I drove was nothing like my ‘17 X5M. The steering and brakes on my M blow the M50 away. The one I drove did not have DHP so can’t compare there...the M50 without DHP was not impressive. But... I’ve driven plenty of M performance cars and yes they’re very nice but do not offer the same experience. You need to drive an M50 and compare when the time comes. If you’re not impressed by the difference then you should get the M50
