Just saw this, M5 completely destroyed them.

I have to say: it's a beast that can beat almost any sports car

You do understand this was a properly modified M5 right!

I was gonna ask the same thing since I didnt watch the video. The way the car pulled on both the TT-S and R8 would suggest as such.

Interesting! It would have been cool if they ran the Turbo S vs the R8 - although the two races showed a huge difference between the two (the Turbo S led and the modded M5 had to catch and pass versus beating the R8 all the way from the beginning). Turbo S driver needs to be in Sport versus Sport plus to remove that aero issue - not that it would have been a deciding factor here - but it would have made it closer.

Thanks for posting!

Wow - you are right - and the Porsche lost?! Are all of these cars modified? So strange that the Porsche did better than the Audi against the modded M5 - and then lost - handily I might add - to the R8?

Strange indeed...

Interesting vid, but a lot like CarWow. You own both. I owned both. The world record modified M5 runs 10.2 on Race Gas Our bone stock TTS runs 10.4 on pump. Those vids don’t rep that. Looks like a 10.2 racing an 11.2 ride.

Just saw this thread, quite an interesting video and comparison, especially after I've been driving a 991.2 TTS for a couple of days now.

The guy driving the BMW didn't list the mods, he only said that it's got a UCT800+ kit. This instagram posts of his says the car has downpipes, midpipes and ECU flash, 100RON fuel with additive (guessing octane booster) - so a regular stage 2 tune. I think he said 800hp and 1100Nm in the video, so probably just a slightly aggressive tune.



The instagram post also has some vbox data:

0-100km/h — 2.85s
100-200km/h — 5.68s
1/4 mile — 10.23s @ 217km/h
1/2 mile — 16.14s @ 265km/h

Interesting data points. That makes the vids even more “off”. My 2019 TTS Vbox 0-100 is high 2.4” s. 10.46 in the 1/4. The vid TTS is no where near those numbers as compared to the F90 Vbox.

They did say at the beginning of the video that it shouldn't be taken very seriously and that it may trigger some people

I've been driving a 991.2 TTS for the past couple of days and my butt dyno said power definitely drops off after 3rd gear compared to the M5 (a tuned M5). My colleague, who has been driving my M5 for the past couple of days also confirmed the M5 feels faster past 100mph (or sooner than that even).

Line them up ! LOL Stock 2019 TTS are running 161mph in the 1/2. Both are killer rides.

They sure are. The TTS is such a blast to drive - the sound, the handling, the response you get from the car and the downshift rev matches are just pure bliss...

I do miss having back seats though, having two kids. If the F90 came with a DCT it would have been perfect

I owned both at the same time. If the TTS did not exist, F90 would still be here. It’s just that good. If the TTS did not exist, I would buy the F90 again today even though I already owned one for 18 months.

TTS doesn't work for my family situation but I just took delivery of a 2020 M5 Comp and I'm loving it even more... I'm on an accelerated-mods train right now that should restore her to her predecessor's mod-glory by the end of next week. Pics and first-hand comparisons then...

I lease them and sell the leases when the mileage gets too high. Here are a few pics with minimal mods.
