I already own a few Mercedes and I came close to getting the SL63 AMG but glad I didnt .. The Power of the M5 was really the key point to buying it , More Hp then the F430 but I think I may go with an Exotic Car after the M5, waiting to see how the 2015 M5 is
but the power to weight ratio of the 991 carrera s is almost identical to the m5. considering that, is there really any advantage of the extra power in the m5? especially since the 911 will be quicker to 60, quicker around town, quicker just about everywhere, except maybe over 120 mph?

obviously the handling isnt comparable.
