From a dig the K4 wins but after 130-140mph the M6 pulls because of their taller gearing.

we sure a K4 is faster than OEm at the top end?

In the 6 speed M5, you cannot disengage the stability control and do not have Launch Control capability (albeit a crippled one) compared to the SMG, and that was one of the major gripes about the car from the viewpoint of the magazine editors
