It won't out-handle cars at half it's price around a racetrack. Even a 2018 Mustang GT PP did a faster lap than the F90 M5 by almost 2 seconds around VIR and the F90 barely outpaced a 718 Cayman S (which has 215+hp less, more like 250hp if you include the understated hp figures from the M5).
After reading your bashing of the M5 I had to go back and look at some of your posts. Do you own a BMW?

First of all, you buy an M5 because it is a fast sedan that you can drive every day, that is the purpose of the car. You lose all credibility when you criticize a sedan that does the Nurburgring as fast as a 911s

The non competiton M5 did the Nurburgring @ 7:38.9 the Mustang GT was 8:07.000. the Cayman S was 7:46.7. Looks like the F90 is faster around a track than the cars you mentioned. Maybe you should check your facts. You claim to lease an Acura NSX which is 65k more than an M5 and was only 2 seconds faster around the Nurburgring than a non Comp M5, when they run the M5 Comp it will be faster than the NSX. You also claim to own an F type r which is 15 seconds slower than the "Grocery Getter" around Nurburgring, good choice of sports car.
