Really?? Because I have both it was and wasnt a PP.. Regardless if thats true, then something is seriously wrong here.. I mean I know the 63 got a bad jump (m5 was clearly launching it), but I would figure if it was a PP that it would real the m5 in quite easily.. I mean 550 hp and 590 lb-ft vs 560 hp and 500 lb-ft..

"Some of the world's finest sports sedans are put to the test in this 1,000 meter drag race.
One of our favorite car enthusiast magazines, Evo, has just released this short but great video of a drag race between four of the fastest and most desired sport sedans on the market. Pitting a BMW M5, a Porsche Panamera S, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, and a Jaguar XFR up against one another should definitely be an interesting experience. But the big question is who reigns supreme in this 1,000 meter race? But no matter the winner, each machine is an incredible work of modern technology.
The M5 is powered by a 4.4-liter turbocharged V8 with 560hp, the Panamera S has a 4.8-liter V8 with 400hp, the E63 AMG sports a 6.3-liter V8 with 518hp, and the XFR is equipped with a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 with 510hp."

"Here is an interesting battle between four sports saloons -- BMW M5 F10, Porsche Panamera S, Mercedes E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR. All come with extremely powerful engines, aerodynamics packages, huge rims and brake systems, and good ride comfort.
First, the latest BMW M5 powered by a brilliant twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 with 560PS (412 kW) at 5750RPM and 680Nm(502 lb-ft) at just 1500RPM. The engine has M TwinPower Turbo technology, twin-scroll turbochargers, high-precision direct fuel injection, VALVETRONIC variable valve control and a cross-bank exhaust manifold meaning an acceleration to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds, to 200 km/h in 13 seconds and top speed of 250 km/h (limited).
Second is the mighty E63 AMG having a new 5.5 liter bi-turbo V8 delivering 525PS (386 kW) and 700Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. The acceleration is slightly better than this in M5 – 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds and the top speed is again 250 km/h (limited)."

I know its painful for you to accept there are cars that are faster than an E63 PP, but unfortunately there are....I know its a shock you will get over it though and emerge stronger.

Good lord. Yes it does. Look at post 16, where the E63 pics are located. It's from actual Evo not two nondescript little websites you keep posting which are wrong like you and Aknight.

The PP cars have stock red calipers unless the car is equipped with the carbon ceramics which would then denote gold calipers.
When you build the car on the mbz website if you pick the PP with the car it forces you take the red calipers or the carbon ceramics.
In the vid what are the caliper colors??
Anyways who cares, its a magazine and a single transaction video. Do we ever take Gustav's vids at face value? I have no doubt it will be a close race one way or the other. The DCT is a more efficient tranny too especially at higher speeds. Lets see some stateside owners run their cars.
