What are your thoughts on a race from a roll of a 08 550I with sport Auto vs a 06 Cayman S 6spd

Thanks

Hard to say. They seem very close. Race and tell me the results. I'm very curious! as you can see why...

My guess is that the Porsche beats the 550. If the road turns twisty then the Porsche really vanquishes the 550. But it really is comparing apples to orange.

Lol Auria Joon, you took it to the forums....I am the competitor..This makes me even more nervous...As soon as the roads dry up and get warmer, we shall find out what happens. I personally think its a drivers race as well, comparing power:weight ratios its pretty much dead even. We shall see and keep you all updated

Agreed, a sedan vs. a sports car. It makes it even more interesting!
