I think that this is an extremely tough question. I like the fact of a black/tan e28 M5 to match my black/tan e30 325is. Then again, after seeing that movie Ronin, hands down that car had the most beautiful exaust note. E34's are bigger and probably 500lbs. heavier, but I like them just as much. Also, weren't e34 M5's utilizing some special "nurinbring" suspension package? I for one would take an e34 m5 touring and call it a day, even if it cost me so much money that I'd end up having to live in it. Those are rare examples that flat out haul.

E28 is one of my top 3 favorite BMW's of the modern era. THE definitive fast 4-door with handling to match. No question E28. But the euro spec 3.8L E34 is tempting.

I think that the E28 is more of a classic car, being a classic shape and the first of the M5's, but the E34 is just a better car all round, so it gets my vote.

Although the E34 is the more modern of the two, the E28 evokes memories of my uncles old Bavaria. Driving in the Bavaria as a kid is why I own a BMW today, my vote goes strongly toward the E28!! Its classic BMW in one its best forms!!

E28 is still THE definition of a performance mid-size sedan that engineers still try to duplicate. No other incarnation of the ///M5 has matched its versatility/handling performance spirit. Thats a fact. Its the standard in the compromise between comfort and performance, hands down.
