M5 CP vs Jaguar
Maybe the first official M5 CP test? Results are encouraging, slower on track vs the Jag but much quicker in the straight (for real world purposes I much prefer the straight line speed), it's an easy choice, M5 of course.

Interesting comparison to the M5. 10.6 to 200kph, 33.0 to 300kph and 11.09 in the 1/4 vs 10.3 , 32.8 and 11.05 |

If I was in the market for this segment now, I would save the premium and wait to see if BMW really is going to make a CS version of the M5 and go for that. |

0.4s faster compared to the new M5 non CP, in a bit colder conditions and on the same tyre (https://f90.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1494962)
I think that is fairly even. I was expecting a 1 sec difference on Sachensenring. Maybe the difference between non CP and CP is more in terms of feel than outright performance. M5 CP was 2s faster from 200 to 300, which is nice, but other results are pretty even too. |

That aside yes, I do expect the M5CP be consistently faster than the M5 on the track, I think that's where CP makes the biggest difference. |

This jag, is not an 5 seats car.... it's more like a gt3 kind of car.
IMO ... it's comparing orange with apple .. The M5 CP is not he same "kind of Beast" not build for the same purpose. it's like 911 turbo and 911 gt3rs on a track.

Hockenheim is a short track and it is less technical than Sachensenring. The M5 F90 CP will have a smaller difference than 0.4s, I am almost sure. The M5 F10 CP was far less wayward than the non CP. Although frankly it doesn't really matter. I think whoever buys the CP doesn't buy it for the extra 5% of performance it offers, I think they buy it for the feel, as it transmits a lot more feel and exhaust noise (as said by most people who drove both). Nevertheless both M5's are pretty epic.
