What is the actual redline of that powerplant? Seemed like he was holding longer than redline or maybe the fuel cutoff is actually above redline?

Now....if only they would make the exterior of the M cars look more distinguishable. Other than the quad exhausts and the slightly flared fenders, it looks to most like a 550 I know many prefer the "stealth" mode, but there is a certain amount of un-requested respect and glares that should come when you purchase a $100K+ car. Coming down the road, until you whomp on the gas, this one will get neither.
That said, it's still on my short list when the lease on my 'M3 vert comes up in 10 months....this, the CLS 63 (likely #1 right now), and the Panamera GTS |

STOP STOP STOP!
When showing the front wheel during the drift near the end, the alloy itself actually hits the ground and sparks when coming out of opposite lock!!! So you destroy your thousand's worth of alloys every time you slide?!

Very interesting observation. Just get wheel and tire insurance. It always pays for itself! |
