No. The fastest production sedan is the Panamera Turbo. Beat the V around the ring by 3 seconds.

Panamera Turbo takes 4.2sec WITH 4WD.
So, once rolling, this M5 will fly.

Pana TT with Sport Chrono actually gets to 100 in 3.9 seconds. Crazy fast for a car it's size with "only" 500 hp.
I do find it interesting that the majority of this thread involves comparisons between the CTS V and the M5. Sure the V is a good bang for the buck, highly tuneable and puts down some amazing times, but shouldn't the M5 be looking more at the Porsche? Imo, this class is about the E63/RS6/Pana TT while the V competes more in the M3/C63/ISF range.
