F10 M5 runs neck and neck with c6 zo6 vette
Pretty damn impressive considering the m5 weighs a thousand pounds more with only an additional 50 hp.

Actually is kind of impressive. If the seats in the Z06 didn't have such crappy seats, it'd be an upper deck shot instead of a line drive homer that just cleared the wall. Sorry, I'm watching the Yankees game...

Sorry, it's just a variable that makes these comparisons difficult. Who knows how well or at which rpm the z06 driver is shifting at. I'm sure I could look up trap speeds for both cars, if they are close, yes it is impressive, but then again is it really that impressive. I would have to imagine that for performance luxury the panamera is the bench mark, I'm sure the M5 is good, it just needs to be raced against it's peers.

Am the only one that thinks this is more impressive for the Z06?

You can see the guy in the Z06 starts in the wrong gear. You can also see it pulling back what the guy loses on the shifts while its in gear.
Yes the M5 is quick, NO it is not Z06 quick. |

Had the opposite feeling to the e60 as you lol, wasn't impressed at all. My old stock STi ran door to door with it up to 60 (Trust me, I know what would happen after that). But this new M5 seems to be extremely impressive number wise, which is why I think it's so cool the z06 is still probably the faster car.

It's trapped 123 on the factor tires, it's in the same damn neighborhood actually.
However, this guy in the video cannot shift better than average
