3 thoughts after watching this vid.
1. Well, I think the race was too short to decide who's really faster(It appears to be around 50-60 where race ended).
2. Why is the person in 650I so slow in terms of reaction time. Every time the white e60 gets 1 carlength head start.
3. Who recorded this video? He's annoying, don't hang out with him.

My thoughts exactly. If the race continued in speed, I would expect the 650i to pull even and then pull away from the 535 due to its bigger bhp rating and the fact that the 4.8 V8 is gutless down low but has big power up high.

race was way too short...... few weeks ago i raced an e92 M3 and a 545i...from 0 - 120ish i would be in the lead, but from 120- 150mph the M3 would slowly overtake me. You guys should do a longer run, but of course not on a busy street, where i did it, it was in the island (no cars) just open road

Vid doesn't prove much, other than that the 535 can take off from a standstill. Well, my 530Xi with a sprintbooster takes off from a stoplight like a bad outta hell too - except it doesn't sustain the acceleration. I suspect, the same thing will happen with 535 - albeit at a much higher speed than my 530 - it will run out of steam loose to the 650. That said, in a 0-60 and possibly even a 1/4 mile a 535 might actually win...
