Hey guys although I'm new here and haven't even gotten my car yet, but. I'm wondering If anybody can tell me if I can take a stock Audi/benz/lexus or whatever off the line in a 1/4 mile. I know I won't have a rocketship of a car, but maybe you guys can save me some embarrassment before I try to race an AMG or something...Thanks and I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY CAR!!!!!

Not mine. Seriously, if off the line performance is so important to you, you should've gotten a different car. Used M5 maybe?

You can't race any AMG in a 530i. Sorry, but if drivers equal, you will be left behind. Even a C32 AMG (V6) is just as fast as a 545i. Remember that AMG = MB supercharged. You can race Camrys, Civics, passats, Audi 1.8 and win by a mile. You can go up against a GS 300 too. Better yet, don't race anybody in a 530i (255 hp).
