The ExMark and Toro are not the same.....Have had Z e-series for going on 20 years just ordered a new one 52" cut ours gets abused and have a commercial 60" toro. The new exmarks and toros are the same mower. Both are awesome there is a reason you see 90% of all commercial gusys running exmark or toro. You will be pleased for years to come. Cut quality is amazing, go ahead and make sure you get the commercial series.
