I like the comment from that guy on the M5board: "What a ridiculous car the M5 is! Luxurious and stupid fast...."

WOW! 0-100mph in 10.1 with the Kellners mods?

Impressive. An m5 that can keep up with a pure sports car as the 997 TT on a straight line. Thinking what an M6 with 600+bhp would do to it...:worriedashell:

0-100 in 10.1 is not that fast, stock e55 in many tests hit 9.4 to 9.9 0-100 mph, but from the roll that kellners m5 is very fast!

I've kept up with a 997 Turbo (stock) many times. They're fast, but not that much faster. I guess it's where my extra 40BHP helps out.

Been up against a 640BHP 996 Turbo & got slaughtered by that.

The stock M5 will do 0-100 in 9.5 sec (Road and Track Feb 06). I imagine the Kellener's M5 will run that in under 9 seconds.

But that 40HP can't really get close to making up the weight differential (the 911 Turbo has the M5 beat by a few hundred pounds), never mind the difference in torque and where and when it is available to the driver. Below medium aggressive triple digit speeds the M5 is going to find it difficult to keep up if the Porsche driver is making an effort! The attached is a 0-100-0 test but it does give some indication of the capabilities of the 911 Turbo and the exotica that it can run with. I love the M5 but got to give credit where its due - the 911 Turbo is pretty much in a class of one.

I don't care now about tests, and mag times and ....
A video or a clip speaks way more than any mag test. Really now!
And it was a 2 run clip so nobody can deny a thing. I like that. Somebody will always think aaaah that guy was lucky, aaaah it was a....

I was there and drove one of the races with the Kelleners M5. It?s really fast!

The runs where not from standstill, then the Porsche would have just left the M5 behind, it was from 50 - 250 km/h. Very close run every time between the 997TT and the M5.

When I drove against a standard M5 the difference at 250 km/h was 5 car lenghts!

The only car that was significantly faster than the Kelleners M5 was the Koenigsegg CCX
