Very cool car. That car has to have some exhaust work done? I don't remember Alex's car sounding that loud? Also, I think it's funny how he put "yes stock" in dragtimes. He does list that it has NOS and an ECU. What is the "charcoal filters". He list that those have been removed?

The US spec M5 has charcoal filters in the intake for better emissions. Many owners remove these for a small performance gain.

Brother, the M5 was on 20 inch wheels leaving extremely soft. ET is all about the 60ft's look at the slip of my car which I ran the same night in this thread https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/136614-best-new-et-motor-11-56-121-49-a.html at the 60ft 1.73 to 1.959
1/8 mile 7.476 to 7.624
94.77 to his 96.96
1/4 mile 11.562 to his 11.581.
trap speed- 121.49 to his 126.350
From the 330ft on he is mowing me down big time.

When they figure out how to bypass the launch restrictions and slap on some drag radials watch out.

No Doubt! I was only commenting that stock...the car is NOT the car BMW was promising and is a dissapointment given the $ on raw numbers...but this has been hashed numerous times...

Point me to a thread where he indicated a sub 12s 1/4 mile for the M5
The 1/4 mille benchmark is only a fascination shared by us...the ROW couldn't care less for it

Fantastic sound. I hope he broke in that motor before ramming nitrous into it.
