Nice, gotta love the engineering in the m5, BUT...if you want speed, you go with 2 wheels. Spend the left over money on a nice truck to tow a dedicated track bike to track days, maybe even $$ left over for a used m3

love the M5 but currently have a 2011 335D and being able to pull down 30.7 mpg at 100mph (did this for the 400 mile stretch from san antonio to el paso) is soo much fun. for me the BMW diesel is its most amazing veh built by the roundel currently. 260hp with 425 lbft of tq available at all times at highway speeds, it is the most bike like car for passing I have owned (even better than my 2000 M coupe) and for 270.00 bucks you can put a JBD in it and take it to over 300 hp and over 500lbft of TQ. they are supposed to be bringing out an M diesel soon also!!!

Cool vid! It's always silly to me when they do these car/bike comparisons when the track is wet.
