F10 M5 vs F13 M6

Made a good reference test between M5 / M6. Enjoy.

Thanks for the reference. I noticed +1 passenger in M5, did M6 also have a passenger? Seemed like M6 got a jump from start in each race and after about 150 km/h both were completely equal. Thanks for the videos again

Yes passengers in both cars, I know I can drive well, but taking a video from M6 while driving without a passenger will be very hard. :P
The M6 kept on increasing the distance, just slower the higher the speed was. But that M5 was STRONG!

I own both and my butt dyno tells me the results would be similar here.

BTW isnt the coupe an F12 not an F13?

It's a known fact that the M6 is quicker than the M5. That has always been the case.

It is F12 for the cab and F13 coupe. I own an F12 and an F10 m5 and considering swapping the m5 for an F13. The m6 is far more connected to the road and more fun to drive.

Besides the obvious weight difference, what makes the M6 so much faster? Expected a closer race..Maybe those things make more power than the M5
