1/4 mile time - around 12.0 @ 122mph?

So I saw that one of the major us car mags tested the new 5.5 biturbo cla63 amg with the performance pack:

0-60: 3.8 sec
1/4 mile: 12.0 sec @ 122.4 mph

I expect the f10 m5 to be about the same - especially since it is widely rumored that it is putting out a lot more hp than 560 at crank...

Thoughts?

M5 numbers will be pretty much identical, 3.8-3.9, 11.8-12.0

My prediction is that all the major car mags will have the M5 getting better lap times, slalom and skidpad results thanks to smoother and flatter power curve and active electronic e-diff... But looks like amg and panamera turbo s will be very close...

At least when it comes to straight line performance, the heavy panamera turbo s and its awd blows away all other sports sedans. As much as I love bmw, the m5 won't even be close (of course the beamer is way cheaper as well).

I suspect its Nurburgring times won't be too shabby either considering the regular turbo did it in 7:56.

That car is much more expensive than the M5, apples to oranges.
