This "test" was not about a fair field...it was about what you can get for 100k...and from that perspective it's pretty sad for BMW that a 10 yr old car with a tune spanks your ass. ...and you can get a lightly used GTR for a lot less than 100k and get the same result.

Colour aside, I'll take the 911 you can have the GTR.

Why do you say that the M5 would lose against the Porsche? The JB numbers on pump gas are 10.6 in the 1/4 so it would have beaten them both. I strongly suspect the RC numbers published are using only pump gas, too, so either ridiculously cheap bolt-on would've changed that race entirely.

Second race the Porsche launches much better and “probably “ ran much quicker than a 10.8 just looking at how it blows by the 10.8 GTR. Porsche is also 700lbs lighter than a F90. Fun internet fodder without any real data. |

For me,this video is perfect example how marketing works..in this case you have two tuned cars and one stock,if we can call M5 comp stock..however,after this video lot of M5/M5 comp owners will say:". oh i need to tune my car,that way my M5 will maybe win this drag race..."
Well,i love my car as it is. |

Not for the price and lack of amenities!
Used to be! It's 100K now+ and with a tune hardly Abel to beat to beat M5 5 seater saloon! Test drove 2"16 before and was very uninspiring My 2 cents

M5 did real well against a drag race cars
Porsche had drag tires! WTH?! Put slicks on m5 too ) M5 was stock, why not take stock GTR and Porsche turbo S of newer year. Or take f10 m5 with 50k worth of upgrades and watch it destroy all of them
