very nice but you just can't compare a 4dr giant with a 2dr racer that is way lighter the M5 is still a great car and compared too other 4dr ships, it pretty much wins hands down(IMHO)
Very good point and true.

The Ford GT may be the ugliest car I have seen in my life.

That was super cool...put a huge grin on my face...looked like fun. You were giving up like what, 800-1000 pounds to the GT and lambo.

The raw sound from the Lambo is just synonamous for the sound of power. I heard the baby lambo gollardo, accellerate a few days ago, my god , it sounded so mean.... only if my lowly 530 sounded like that .

But yeah that vid puts things into perspective, how fast those super cars are.

Would it make a difference if PhillyM5 was in an M6? It's a 2 dr. Don't think so. Would he be able to keep up in a 996 TT? No, don't think so either. Mclaren, yes; M6, no way. You pay for what you get a the higher speeds.

No way in a 996 TT. As we seen the m6 is faster than the porsche from roll-on. And i bet the m5 is somewhere equal to it.
But a 997 turbo would be a good match imo. You would need alot of overboost
