I guess I dont understand the need to prove whether one is some fraction of a second faster to 60 when we are ultimately talking about luxury cars that 95% of the people who buy them dont really appreciate the engineering excellence that has gone into both.

For me the choice for a performance BMW would be clear... M5... E36 edition... for sheer dynamic purity (no fluffy bologna, just well thought out basic mechanics).

For the record, I have driven a coworkers 09 CTS-V, and test drove an E60 M5, and both were just fantastic. Its really a very close argument IMHO. I would be content with both.
