On the the twists and turns the M5 dominates. In straight lines it's pretty much even. Check the numbers. Zero to sixty dot com has them both at 4.0 0-60. For me it came down to styling. I can't say much about the roadsters though. Only the sedans. I drove both before buying AMG.



One of the few cars Im wary of on the road. Lol. I'll go toe to toe with an M5 any day but the CTS-V is a scary sedan.

This is going to be MB's game changer.

510hp, revised 7 speed to shift in less than a tenth of a second and 175lbs lighter than a C63 sedans.

Oh and massive brakes along with a bunch of other suspension tweaks.

Says the guy who has (or had) a 3 series convertible. Then again with your height you need a removable roof, us vertically challenged don't have those issues.

I prefer the Audi and BMW for handling. I took this beast out a few weeks ago. It was fast but was no fun on corners.

Thanks for the laugh. The 3 series is for the wife or kids - M or not. A grown man should drive a 5.

And for the record I've spanked quite a few E90's. :winkwink:

hey now!

the SLK came out when I had my SL. I remember thinking it was a girl's car.
I've got the 335i because I'm hooked on retractable hard tops but I needed a back seat.
kinda pigeon holes you on what you can do.

but since I drive a girl's car, I gotta point at something else as more girly. :winkwink:

The Black Series C63 Coupe will be in a whole different price category than a regular C63 or M3, you can hardly count that as proper competition.
