M5 run in.
Had a run in with a new M5 today. Guy was really nice. We pulled up to a light then both paced until we got to a clear area. From about a 35 mph roll we both punched it I was in 2nd gear at about 4500 rpm ish. He pulled right away but not as fast as I thought he would, when I shifted into 3rd gear my front end was at his bumper. And we both stopped, then he punched it again and he pulled about the same. My guess is since it was new with temp tags he was only in P400 but if we kept on going more than 1 gear I am sure he would of continued to walk away from me at a faster and faster pace.
This was my first M5 I have seen on the street and with my windows down wow did it sound good.

Like I said he had temp tags. So my guess is he was in break in and in P400 mode aka 400 hp. I have 333hp and weight a lot less. And he did pull the entire time just not as much as I thought, but again he had temp tags and was probably short shifting and taking it easy.
