E60 M5 vs. '10 CTS-V in HD video

This is a twin drag test by UK magazine Autocar. CTS-V kills the M5 from the lights but, heck, watch the end of the video- the M5 reels the CTS-V in like it's standing still once they get above 120mph. Will be interested to see how the new E63 does....or better yet throw the S65 into the mix...

CTS-V
It looks like the driver of the M5 weighs significantly more than the driver of the CTS-V, which may have explained the slow start of the former.

That 120 mph pass by the M5 seemed strange. The difference was way to great for two cars powered and geared like that. May be the CTS went into 4 cylinder mode or has a bad I/C pump..lol

I don't know about that. I can see the M5 catching up at 120+ but for it to pass the V with that much ease seems far fetched.

I saw the same video earlier today..

looks like both cars did not perform to their potential... if you look at the 0-100 times...

but if both drivers kept their foot in the pedal and the M5 was gaining that fast.. we might guess the CTS-V will have heat issues too just like any other kompressor engine.

I bet that clown, Gustav, from M5 board will put up a video of the CTS-V losing to an M5. Better yet a Veyron to an M5.

Back to the CTS-V, I find it wierd how C&D & other rags tested her to run 117mph + Traps this vid/review shows it @ 111mph???

Sean,
It's obvious that I hurt your feelings after I turned you down via pm to catch up over some coffee. Posting about you never crosses my mind. Lol I haven't even seen you for five years and was kind enough to decline and wish you the best. Does this make you feel better Sean to act like a five year old and take the time to post about a girl you met one time five years ago? This is a car forum not Ricker Dr. Phil land. I'm embarrased for both of us. Ahmad knows me very well idiot. Sorry about OT guys.

S65 vs M5, the speed is 295 km/h (183 mph) at the end of the airfield. It's a vid from Gustav. I'm the driver of the S65.

You need help Sean. Do you not have something better to do with your time? I'm not even going to discuss any of this craziness because it's unnecessary drama in my life. Like I said, I am embarrased for both of us. Move on with your life and leave me out of it. Have the members search all my post where they will find zero posts where I cared enough to talk about you. You on the other hand love to talk about me. Hmmm

Sean,
expect to be served. I'm tired of your harrasement and Internet bully posts. You have already been sued for this in the past and didn't learn your lesson. Sitting behind a keyboard doesn't give you the right to post whatever you want. There are laws to protect me from people like you. Thank you for the evidence.

I never had a chance to run a M5 but I'm hoping it will happen soon. The only thing I've race up to 170 was a 996TT with a tune, straight pipes, and a few other mods. I had approximately 4 car lengths on him up to 170 and holding. There's a modded M6 in the area and I'm hoping I get my chance soon. I hate running in Mexico but every now and then I let loose.

Did you come off at 170? depending on which road in Mexico, a modded m5 will def. hit 200+

what i find surprising is that this m5 has access to full euro launch mode and STILL got spanked off the line.
