60-120mph in 9 seconds. be interested in any gtech's or other such timing gizmo or just tape it and time the recording to a stock e55 so we can get some real-time comparison. i know my car would crush that but its modded. also, supposedly in sport mode but that shift doesnt seem to "snap" to me???

120 mph is a little below 200 km/h = big difference in higher speeds.

It is S5 mode, S6 is the fastest with a signficant difference.

so what should we do, apply 3/4 throttle??? if you post this amazing time it surely must be your close-to best. the fact is is that if that what you call a "snap" shift in its next to highest shift mode i guarantee ours shift faster (god, i can t believe i even said that) anyway, we now have first hand evidence of a performance beacon and i hope someone here in a non modded car can do a similar comparison. still havent seen anything in a mag in the us that has said the m5 IS faster. just your opinion against an e55 wagon and an e55 that you what, look to each other at 30 and nod? why no stop to 100, 150, 200 tests. they are all rolling. why douchstav?

This was with:

luggage
AC on
S5 as stated
two people in the car

I also did standing start wtil LC vs E55 but he spun his tires. I have explained it thousands of times: did not want to abuse the tires even more. Also elimination of drivers error as an additonl factor.

Also, Peter please be mature and call me by my name.
