Internets say the 6cyl models feel nicer to drive as they have a better steering rack. They had to use a different design for the v8's that made them feel a little more numb.
Wouldn't put me off an m5 though...
Pains me to say I sold a very clean 520i msport in need of a bit of engine attention (gaskets to stop leaks) for £600 in 2016. I just needed it gone as I had the clio on order. Wish I had kept it now. Wasn't as slow as you'd expect for a 2.2 i6, but it was so lovely to drive...
That rings true actually, they cover the E39 M5 in the latest Evo and the say they couldn't fit a rack in there with the V8 so they used a recirculating ball system
