Fool you are trippin. There is noway that the E55 had Kleemann K4. If it did it would tear that M6 apart.

As much as i hate to admit it, that's about right and i've confirned this clip with the K guys.

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

In other words on the street the M6 is dog meat.

even your own m6 board member "Jamie140" has commented and confirmed what everyone else already knows...it's good to know that there is at least ONE stand up guy from that board.

Should I close the thread based on redundancy or should we all test our cut and paste skills.

C&D runs the E63, M5 (manual) and S6 heads up....
The E63 smokes em all....

E63: 12.6 @ 115
M5 6 speed: 13.0 @ 114
S6: 13.8 @ 104 <--- what a joke.....

Interesting part is that 0-150, the M5 can't pass up the E63...

E63 0-150: 23.3
M5 0-150: 23.4


The E63 beat the M5 in every accerlation test.... 0-60, 0-100, 0-150, 5-60, 30-60, 50-70.....
Can the M6 be that much faster than the M5?

you should post that on the m5 board with a title "video PROOF the e55 is a better road course car than the m3 and m6".

*edit* nevermind...i just did it.

for what is worth...

the E60 M5 in SMG (based on your figures) is faster than the Manual E60 M5..

the M5 traps consistenly higher than a stock E55 and E63 and most of the times for 1/4 have been a few tenths slower but higher trap speed.

I can't believe the manual only was able to pull a 13.0 at 114.... something is not right. E39 M5 boys run about the same, but their traps are atleast 4 slower.

This is what everybody has been saying, but why is that not what we are seeing out of bone stock cars? I think stock E55 traps are just as high as stock M5 traps, if not higher. And both cars are picking up 25 to 26 mph between the 1/8th and the 1/4. Check out dragtimes.com

The M5's speed advantage really manifests itself once the E55 has shifted out of 3rd gear - beyond 120 mph. 4th is a killer for the E55, especially against an M5 that is in a much more favorable 5th gear.
