No chance but better than I thought
Well going home in lovely SL65 tweaked lowered and with 20 inch rims.
WHEN the meanest GTR came up behind me, matt black like something
out of Terminator.
I pulled over and it went by with an incredibly loud exhaust. Well I floored
the old girl and to my surprise the GTR didn't exactly leave me dead, she
defended her honour . However when we reached a roundabout the GTR
went round it like it was on rails, I could hear every gear change it was so loud, and after I exited the roundabout he was gone, I thought it was not
worth continuing the race so I slowed , but he got stopped behind a van
and I caught him up, when the van moved over it was every man for himself
and I planted my right foot, he stilled gradually pulled away, but it was a bit
of fun. If I had been in my SL63, he would have still pulled away.

Lol he's locked away for forum triage type emergency only
PS glad you didn'didn't take my somewhat extreme fact finding//posts on M5 wrong, no disrespect was meant. I really love all dif perf oriented autos esp latest marvels & could see a M6 in future.. I just knew some of basics on the m5 as I was checking in a possible purchase vs another MB etc.. They're remarkable autos w/fantasic advancements in launch control, head up display handling DCT trans etc etc..

SL 55 and a GT 3000 vr4 Here's my car: http://home.online.no/~ludvs/index.cfm
Hope that exhaust note was real, as you maybe know the m3,4,5 and 6 has fake sound via the speaker system.....
