That matchup has been beaten to death for the last 2-3 years. The Z is a remarkable car, but defeating a 500 hp 4000 lbs sedan in a straight line with a 500 hp 3200 lbs coupe doesn't take an astrophysicist to figure out.

Still waiting on a definitive answer of the E55 vs. M5 battle... Can't seem to find a straight response on this via video, etc.
Okay that was fair?
As was said, a 4000 plus lb 4dr sedan against a more aerodynamic coupe with 3200 lbs. and both with 500 bhp, the outcome no surprise.
Now outcomes can be different though .
Here I am in my M5 (bolt ons and joy juice) against a C6 Z06 (modded 530 rwhp). We ran 60 to 175 mph.

Thankfully (in my experience) not many '60 to' races go to 175.

Forget about going on the "juice" but I've never lost to an E55 in my local encounters. Also at the dragstrip have never lost against a CLS63.
Here's a video but I don't know because my straightline results have been different.
HIRISC the M5 under the infleunce of the "juice" is awesome. With a direct port nitrous system the M5 has run a 10.57 sec 1/4 mile pass with a 130 mph trap. That's using Mickey Thompson DR's.
This car is no longer running. ASR is finishing the TT engine build S85 of my M5.

M5 100%
I've raced numerous AMG's in my M6, E55, E63, CLS55, CLS63, SL55, SL63, none of them can hang. I've raced several from a dig as well. The M5 is just a tad slower then the M6...
The 55's pared with the 5-speed autos die above 100mph from my experience. To 100 I already have a significant lead, after that the difference just keeps growing. The 7 speed E63 didn't fare much better either tho.
I'm not an AMG hater, I had an SL55, just speaking the facts I've observed.

Wow. Can't wait to see some numbers from your ASR build.
