BMW has been holding launch events and airing commercials for the new F10 M5 all over the world, making automotive enthusiasts lust for the vehicle even more than they did when the vehicles was first presented over the web. However, even though the fastest 5er is an astonishing machine, it does come with a major drawback: its price.
