I'd love for them to do a 40mph-130mph test instead of a top gear acceleration from 50mph-70mph. Although good, it's not really that relevant. I can just drop a gear for that.
A roll test would truly show which one is faster, since you eliminate the launch and even give the caddy a chance with its RWD platform.

The GTR was a great track car, and probably still a good track car. Performance, still very good.
The new M5, is 5 seat ( i have three kids ), and right now, i can go on highway and flash a gt--r (aka many sports car) and gently ask them to let me pass because i need to go at the restaurant before them ... lol Seriously, not so many car push like the m5 / gt-r / etc... M5 have the same level of performance as many sport / supercar on daily driving .... and ... i can travel with 5 person in the cars. Not a lot of car can do that today (e63, rs7) So, from a daily performance perspective, i prefer the m5 over the gt-r ( extra luxury, back pain less, and many cool feature with the m5 that you don't have in the gt-r.) But on a track ... for sure, probably more funny with a gt-r, porsche gt3 rs / mclaren ... Can we tell that both car have simillar performance, one focus on fun / track, the other one focus on luxury, performance, authoban . Last edited by MTHX; 03-21-2018 at 10:49 PM.. |

When I sat in the car however - it just did not work for me. It was very Enterprise D with the curves. I found the M550ix interior much more to my liking. This is all subjective of course - but I would suggest those to actually sit in both before making a call - versus the pictures which to me looked much better than real life. I switched Teams over the interior and the fact the E43 was too slow (neither the new E63S or obviously the F90 were out yet). |

Comparing a GT-R to M5.... the R35 started production with 2 years left in the e60 M5 life cycle for Christ sake. Yes, 10 years and 2 generations later the M5 has caught up in performance. . The F90 is a beast no doubt with amazing performance, but the GT-R was groundbreaking performance, especially considering its price. It deserves respect for its time (which is well passed now). And it's a shame that the focus of M cars (at least from discussions I've been seeing on this forum) is now becoming 0-60 times and trap speed.

It is taste - subjective taste. The new G30 has the same LED lighting as the MB. It just isn't curved like a spaceship. Again - sit in the car before you give up on one. From the pictures I thought the interior was amazing. Until I actually saw and sat in it.

Evolution is based on what? Material? Techno? Design? For me, i like bmw interior since 1999. Lot of minor / major (like idrive) evolution since there.. (techno) In 20 years from now, car will be in a path for real major evolution. / revolution. No more steering, no more front seat, imagine what will be a real self driving cars ... but for now, for all manufacturer ... it's more like minor evolution each time... Bmw = porsche Mercedes = hyundai (lol) joke ... more like audi And bye the way ... i like this threads ... funny and some kind of respectful debate / opinion

See... it's taste. I think the interior of the M5 is one of its strongest points. Sat in it and was shocked how much I loved it. Guess we'll agree to disagree |
