I am not an E60 expert - but I don't recall complaints with being able to use all the power with a full-time RWD car at those BHP levels. I think most of the complaints were associated with the SMG.

Just an alternative viewpoint...
This is the article I thought would be helpful (remembered reading it a while ago):
