This truck just cracks me up...

We have an excellent set of S curves which are uphill going one direction and downhill going another with both sides seperated by a concrete divider. This is what my wife refers to as my "R&D track" Anyway, I'm on my way back home tonight and it's pretty deserted - or so I thought. I take the first corner no where near the limit but at a speed that is both criminal and just plain unbelievable for a 5k lb SUV, and notice ever so briefly another car ahead hauling **** through the next corner ahead. By the time we got to the next corner I was pretty much on his rear and I can tell it is some sort of BMW (probably a 3 something - it was dark out). We then pull up to the light which turns green just before we come to a complete stop and off I go and I look up and see the car behind me and obviously it's not being grandmothered as we go around the last corner. When I pull into the turn lane to turn into my neighborhood I check to see what kind of BMW it was. It was an M5 I'm sure that guy was fairly dumbfounded at what he'd just witnessed just as I was in Leipzig when those crazy bastards drove us around the track sideways in them

The guy cruises through town thinking "oh I have a M5 watch out for me" and then gets schooled by a SUV not only in acceleration but in the turns. That's Porsche for you.

An M5 would kill a Cayenne Turbo/ S in every performance catogory except driving threw mud

. Sorry I had to say it, my previous car was an M5.
