I had an '03 E55 and it was scary quick--the low end torque was unbelievable! I don't think the E60 M5 will keep up with it--in 0 - 60 MPH or 1/4 mile...but as an over all performance package, the M5 (although I've yet to drive one) should be the hands down winner.

I enjoyed it greatly. A good race is a good race. And, 10.95 and 130+ is outstanding.

I once saw an ML55 at a drag strip.

Most ridiculous sight ever, think it was a "soccer mom" behind the wheel as well ...

These definitely are not stock cars. Stock E55 would do 12.4 at best. These cars must have at least 700 bhp.
