M5 = Beast!

Okay, this is great to see, but I'm curious how this is possible (if it truly is non-tuned). I realize the M5's official power is underrated and really shines on a roll (like these vids). However, the power:weight between these cars is too significant to be this close. Yes, the FF is AWD.

Even though the FF is AWD, it's a traditional mechanically linked AWD setup so there shouldn't be any parasitic drivetrain loss from the front wheels. The biggest difference is how power is made from the two engines. As Boss330 pointed out the S63tu makes power a lot more efficiently than almost any other engine out there, including a big NA V12. The FF sounds like heaven though, and I still take it over the M5 just for that V12 sound.

I'm not surprised. I had fun two nights ago w my first 458. His car sounded plain awesome. BUT, he couldn't get away the three times he tried. Yes m5 beast.

Great vid.

Still it doesn't mean that there is a loser in this video or that one car is inferior over the other.

In the case of Ferrari, I do like the FF.
Some ferrari enthusiasts didn't like it because of stuff like 4WD and that it look like a bas**rd child that was disrespectful to the 612 that it replaced.

But for me, the FF is the Ferrari that I like the most as of the moment.

Heck, someone call me crazy but I like it more than the F12 Berlinetta
FF > F12 Berlinetta

Just my opinion

I remember when the 355 was my favorite car.

Great video! BMW should be very proud.

This video is being discussed over on Ferrari Chat as well. The consensus is that the FF was short shifting. I tend to agree with that as well.
