That was a pretty close race. Real world speeds - under triple digits - I'm surprised how well the M3 keeps up.

Hardly close. Hardly.

...but it's not. BMW has a pecking order unlike Porsche's new philosophy. Want to fight... lol.

Schnell_1 · 12-17-2014, 09:41 PM

As expected: the M3 stays tight until triple digits and then it turns into an individual competition.

m-ch · 12-18-2014, 12:24 AM

shame that they had the 250kmh limiter
m5 passed the m3 easily and if they didnt had the limiter the gap would get worse up to 300 kmh.

That win by the M5 was plain sibling abuse.

shahano · 12-18-2014, 05:05 AM

not bad on the m3's part... Actually thought it would be worse than that.

RPiM5 · 12-18-2014, 07:31 AM

In the straightline, horsepower trumps weight.

In the turns, weight trumps horsepower.

This is why we see 1500hp Twin Turbo Gallardos beating Carbon Fiber chassis 300hp Hayabusas in highway races.

I've haven't raced an M4 yet, but I have raced a 540hp 3,100lbs Lamborghini Superleggera before and destroyed it when my F10 M5 was still relatively stock.

URBAN LEGEND · 12-18-2014, 11:08 AM

Once the M5's DCT gets into 4th gear its light out.

If the F80 can keep up with the F10 like that, it would probably outgun the E60

Really? Through 3rd gear it looked pretty damn close to me. Of course the M5 is faster...but give the little M3 some credit!

JRV · 12-18-2014, 12:58 PM

Only thing surprised me is that they both sound identical in the car accelerating.

GunderM5 · 12-18-2014, 01:24 PM

I ran a 15' M3 a few weeks ago. It was close until around 80 mph and then the M5 dominated
