Znod why do you refere to yourself on the 3rd person?
You did so countless times before...i'm just curious.
I replaced your "I"s from the second paragraph with "Znod". Sounds better heh?
For ease in exposition.

545i's
Ajjajajajaha get this: by only 0.1 cm bigger. But 535ds run far longer than the petrol's. Having a petrol makes you stop more often to re-fuel

Do you have the slightest idea how many car lengths are implied by that many partial seconds at around 100 MPH? Here is your assignment. Please figure it out mathematically and post back. You would not believe me if I told you anyway.
What happened to 0.1 difference to 50 and 0.2 difference to 100 you posted earlier?

Haha, ok so who's e-penis is the biggest?

545i is quicker, BMW wants it to be quicker, mags tested it and it's quicker, if you want the quickest, buy an M5 end of discussion. Mods (DMS remaps etc.) should be discussed in the parts and accessories section and shouldn't be discussed here as anything modded is out of bounds.
Discussing mods here is some contexts is OK IMO. However, doing so, given this topic, does not seem germane. And, no one has mentioned the supercharger kit available (soon if not already) for the 545i. Wonder why not.

I think you were confused. Show me in your reply to this post. I am not going to look back for what you are talking about. I am waiting for reinforcements, and actually I need to do so work soon.

This thread is very messy, refering to like five different tests in either mph or kph (and I can't remember how many old shoes or elbows there goes per kilometer )... And the 545i is surly the faster car, but it's not THAT much faster. I can't see hos this discussion will be able to go futher on without a real race! So come on!

I apologize for making the comment about your grip on reality. I found your post about "boring tests," etc., to be highly offensive. Our fora are not about flaming others, disrespectiving others, and disrespecting their opinions, preferences, and values. Please refrain from doing so in replying to me in the future.
Apology excepted. I'm sorry you found my remarks about "boring tests" etc to be highly offensive but this is my opinion, please do not disrespect my opinions as you have kindly ordered me not to be so disrespectful of other peoples opinions, preferences and values. I'm not out to flame any person on this forum it is only my opinion....
