My stock E55 vs E63 and 2 modded M5's. Videos inside!!
 

I enjoy looking at beautiful cars as much as the next guy, and I am all for nice rims and body enhancements. I think its time to add some action to this board. Lets not forget what these cars were intended for...


I had the pleasure of meeting with vegastrashed and 2 highly modded e60 M5's. Let me start by saying this is only intended to share videos and run highlights. This proves all of the cars strengths and weaknesses. Hopefully nobody take this the wrong way. http://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/driving.gifhttp://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Both runs were from 70-130mph. Vegastrashed was on camera duty that night with a 200lb passenger.

The M5's belong to 2 well respected M5board members and both are stand up guys. Both cars are heavily modified and run very very fast in the top end. My E55 is 100% bone stock http://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/naughty.gif.

I did a previous run with vegastrashed from 60-130mph. It was very close until after 130mph when the E63 would pull away from the E55. Clearly showing the gear ratio and top speed advantage of the 63 platform.

The E55 is on the far left lane, E63 middle lane (camera car w/ passenger), M5's took right lanes.

Video shows the E55 putting distance from the pack right from the start, thanks to 516 lb feet of torque! The moment I hit 130mph and lift off the throttle, the M5's have caught up and would have taken over up to whatever ludicrous speed. I think 130mph is plenty fast enough and I am not concerned with what happens after.


Thanks to vegastrashed, sohrab, kenny and ofcourse the camera man. All runs were filmed in Mexico at 5am. Enjoy!

70 - 130mph

wow those m5 sound great

Nice videos - those M5's do sound great, gotta love the high revving cars... i sure love my 8500 limit in my 360

Quite impressive for a bone stock car as well... always good to see E55's doing what they do best

its impressive how the E55 is faster than the E63 :eek:, and those M5's sure sound great
thanks for the vid

Amazing! How impressive it is...E55 faster than the E63..Wow!

Thanks for all the replies. To be fair as mentioned in the post, the E63 carried the camera man (200lbs) We ran before with 0 passengers and it was very close. I only pulled about a car then he starting catching up and would have pulled on me after 130mph. Here is that video.

Thank you for sharing, impressive the E55 catches up nicely downlow.

AMGs & M5s all running fast on the Mexico Autobahn. Nice!!

what mods are on the M5's and is the E63 stock?

M5's have every bolt on and tune, one one of them does not have headers yet.

The E63 has a flash and section 3 I believe. But he is on 20 inch rims.

996ttdave: Yes, the M5's sound terrific!!! They sing like a ferrari or lambo would. my E55 sounds pissed off and angry. That's what I like. :eek: hilarious

Aside from the content, the quality of the video (non zoomed) is AWESOME! What brand/model camera filmed these events? :)

Nice Vids
