F90 M5 or X4M

Hello all,

I'm in a bit of a bind right now. I'm just about to sign what I think is a killer deal for a X4MC, BUT with Oct came some better residuals for the 19 M5's. Without getting into too much info, we're looking at around 100-120 more a month between a 117K 2019 M5C vs a 85K 2020 X4MC.

The last 4 cars I've been in over 12 years have been: e60 550i, MB e550 coupe (don't ask), F10 550i, and now a F06 650i GC. Love my V8 sedans as you can see. I've always contemplated getting into a M5 but got great deals on all my prior BMWs when shopping around.

Hopefully there can be some people here that have owned/own both and can chime in. Will I get regretful for getting into the X4MC over the M5. I'm in and out of my trunk everyday and have my rear seats dropped 80% of the time to expand my cargo space. This was one of my main reasons the X4MC appealed to me, easier access and more space. Hoping the I6 and decrease in torque won't bother me too much as well. I'm actually looking forward to having a shorter car to zip around town in. My 650I GC's length barely fits in my garage.

Any insight would be appreciated. AND waiting on the 2020 X5M or X6M isn't much an option. Not one to spend 1500 on a lease payment. Thanks!
