I am just writing this last post to avoid misleading the forum members with your wrong information.

eg it's a manual 535i http://www.fastestlaps.com/carBMW_535i_F10.html
Both cars in Sport Auto were automatic as it is clearly written in the tests of Sport Auto. I obtained the acceleration data from Sport Auto site not from fastest laps site. You can find them in post #48.

Fastestlaps.com says the F10 535i is faster than the E60 535d.

So basically it is a further proof of my point that a slower accelerating car (the E60 535d) that is able to achieve the same lap time as a faster accelerating car (the F10 535i) while both are equipped with the same suspension packages and gearboxes means that the slower accelerating car (the E60 535d) is better handling in corners than the faster accelerating car (F10 535i).

Thanks for bringing up the comparison as it helps to further prove my statement .

F10 better http://www.fastestlaps.com/compariso..._BMW_530i.html
F10 worse http://www.fastestlaps.com/compariso...530i_2007.html
These are two different E60 530i you are comparing. The fast one was built in 2007-2009 with 272 hp 320 Nm N53B30 engine and the slow one was built in 2005-2007 with 258 300Nm N52B30 engine.

See how weak your technical knowledge is ?

Please do not mislead the forum members with your subjective comparisons.

Instead, use objective comparisons, like mine .

Assumption that the 535D is slower accelerating for the test, which acceleration and elasticity. I've requested for all data and only data for 1 track is provided.

See how weak your technical knowledge is ? Yes but is either 530i faster on the straight than the F10? Data requested but not provided. From the links provided, the 530i have different acceleration speeds.

Please do not mislead the forum members with your subjective comparisons.

Instead, use objective comparisons, like mine . Try harder
