E60 M5 Vs E63
Anyone familiar with this test? The results are kind of disturbing.
Seems like as the speeds climb the M5 starts to pull away!
Yet the E63 has the 7spd tranny,more TQ.What gives?Could weight be a factor here as well. I'm hoping AMG/MB did'nt build or spend all this $$ on a car that would be slower or run like the E55K!I'd rather just keep the E55K if this is the case.
Jeez!
