The E63 S is 50kg heavier, but it has a bucket load more torque and some extra power. I don't see this as a bad showing for BMW, rather it is quite impressive that it was this close.
Car and Drivet was same cars same day also. Plus they understood LC. No one knows if they put different octane in the test cars. Just stated the OEM specs. Who knows what octane CW used. Either way, the cars are probably very equal and is a drivers race.
