In Florida they are going MSRP plus $30k.

I have both the 720 and CS. Both are awesome. I'm simply saying the CS is not supercar level. Thats a fact, not an opinion.
Yeah, that 10.7 quarter is just super slow. And yes, by the way you’re posting, it does come off as arrogant, rather than informed. I’m sure that’s just the FL in you, though.

10.7 is slow for an M5? interesting. You must run a 9 flat huh?

Agree with Moserkm that some of it is semantics.

I'm not saying that the M5 is or is not a supercar, but I just stumbled across this article and thought I'd post it here. Also not sure I necessarily agree or disagree with the opinions, but I thought it was a good read nonetheless.

Here's How We Define "Supercar." What's Your Definition?

Beating a supercar from a dig is not that impressive nowadays.

Everything else, i said already.
LOL You went from come to South FL to get slapped around, to admitting defeat? I think we are getting way out of context here. The 720s is well north of 300k, the F90 well south of 150k. Both cars are comparable to an extent. The F90 has the capability of taking out or keeping up with lots of different super cars. It would be foolish to say the F90 is not on the cusp of super car territory, it just doesn't come with the fancy doors and body styling.

I said because i haven't use LC in the 720 yet... When it's done correctly it would be right there with F90.


Both cars are not compareable, in any extent. Except 0-60.

So out of curiosity I wanted to see your CS and 720s and figured you had IG. (most people do) So I looked up your username and there is an aj_g80.. Funny, there are no pics of a CS or 720s, but a recent one of a G80 M3 you just got.. LOL Then I realized your profile is name G80.. So I scroll further down and see an F10 M5 and its you dads?? LOL Are you just out here trolling people??? LMAOOOOOOO!

There cannot be more than one aj_g80 with Florida GEO Tags on their posts..... LOL

Update.. There's even a second IG dedicated to your G80 and the most recent pic was 2 days ago.. @twilightg8X

Gorgeous cars nonetheless!

I think the F90M5 is a supersedan even if it is not a supercar.
