AWD Quit being such a fan boy.

 

The same X5M/X6M has a 0-200 km (124 mph) in 16.3 seconds. That's very impressive especially for a freaking large heavy truck.
I've been in one and that truck PULLS even after 120 mph! It's really not bad at all.

 

As much as I believe that you are wrong about the E55 vs. M5 (M5's top end at around 125 mph), I really the admire C63 AMG in general. Nice ride buddy. Sounds and drives very well.

But...I'm confused by this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Lg-z...eature=channel

Perhaps you can explain how a standard Mark I 997 Porsche Carrera S Cabrio held its own???

 

The new s63 did 0-200 in 13.3 with massive traction problems and it weighed almost 5100 lbs.

If mb can get the next e close to 4400 lbs it will smoke the next M5

 

What a bunch of tards in that video

They sound like school children lmao, 150-160-200-220-250-255 haha

 

Because your butt buddy Gustav probally rigged that video with a different car. Most those videos are scams biased against the Benz. A C63 would smoke a Standard 997.

 

This morning I heard an ad on the radio saying, " why do so many car manufacturers compare themselves to BMW?" It is simple, they are the bench mark for SLOW *** cars No wonder they don't have torque management problems, they don't make any TQ.

 

I cant believe this thread is still going....

 

I've got a 335xi and E55, among others. I think the 335 is a wonderful car for the price point, and for what it is.

If I had $40k to spend on a brand new car, that's exactly what I'd purchase, because the bang for your buck/fit and finish is unparalleled. There's no comparable MB, and BMW would get [and did get] my money.

With that said, the E9X M3 is garbage, even compared to the 335. It's simply a $75k S2000. And that's with a Porsche Club Instructor Twisties Bias.

With that said, this E55/M5 argument is asinine. If a man or woman considering an M5 or E55 chose based on raw 1/4 mile time, I'd say that Darwin couldn't catch up with them fast enough. There are so many other more important things to factor in.

 

Didn't happen to be the silver one from the woodlands?

 

Butt buddy? Why, how very mature of you! Thanks for the compliment.

If they're biased againt Benzes, then how and why would the owners of such AMGs and Benzes LOSE intentionally? No excuse for failing I/C Pump for a N/A 6.2 Liter in a C63.

As for proof that these GTboard vids are NOT biased....

No it was a yellow one, but that one is quick as well !!

 

I'm suprised people still think this is a valid argument here. I thought it was pretty much known that the "modern" AMG's are faster in a line, M's are faster in the curvs.

 

Well...I have entertained myself for the past half hour laughing through this thread.

I had a fully modded 135 for the first year and enjoyed the little car. With all the bolt-ons it is quick in a straight line.
I never had the dreaded hpfp problem many had (some multiple times) but was allways worried when it would come to me. That BMW did not do twisties well...maybe with serious suspension upgrades it would have been better.

Well I dumped the 135 for a Porsche Cayman S with dfi and pdk...the twisties are big fun and the latest dfi is quicker than most think. While the P car is great fun on a road course I missed the TQ from the n54 and was able to talk my wife into the C63.

I now have a good stable imho...two totally different cars that makes me happy on different days depending on my mood. What I have learned from this thread is Maybe BMW akes a great suv in the x5m x6m....now that would be nice threesome...
