I have driven an M5 on several occasions but never really got on it. Is there THAT much difference acceleration? I know it has more hp but it weighs more too. What are the 0-60 times on both? 0-100?

Before the M3 I had a 550 sport. That car was more comfortable for sure, but it was too big to handle anything like the M3. I never felt the M5 handled like a sports car, but rather a big, heavy sports sedan.

The M3 is faster than you can drive on the road. Was the M5 so much faster or was it just that it sounded fast.

My car doesn't "seem" as fast as it first did, but that is just because I'm driving it every day. I jumped in my brother's X5 4.8 the other day and IT felt like a barge.
