But I'd probably get a Panamera.
I try to like the Panamera but it is just SOOOO big ...

None of these mid size sedans are going to offer the drivers feel that the E39 offered ... like Equ said the F10 is a great car to drive in traffic and long drives ... I'll add that it is a comfortable car with nice handling and good to great power depending on the engine you have .... would I take one out for a Sunday enthusiastic drive ... no but that's what sports cars are for.

With that said I will also add my A6 feels like it handles better then either of my past F10's ... I think that is because the run flats in the bimmers really don't feel like tires that grip the road, they feel like you are riding on top of the road.
