G8 GT vs BMW M5

2009 g8gt. mods are intake, tube, long tube headers, high flow cats and a cat back exhaust. The BMW driver said he is "stock with exhaust and visual mods" Unsure whether or not he was tuned. Sorry the video is soo shitty, I was in manual mode so I was trying to shift also. Towards the end of the video I give a glimpse in the side mirror for half a second and you can see that he is about half a car behind me. And when I let off because of the car in front of me. He flys by.

Is this in newport Beach? it looks like it lol.

I'm not saying that your car isn't fast, but a 5 second race does not prove much. Take it to the highway and you will find out who is faster.

[chadoo951]

@giantmidget08 I agree. We were just messing around. And then a car was in my lane, obviously this wasnt anything official. And this video was before the supercharger got put on the car. Check out the other videos. A freeway race would have been good back then. Now as much as I like m5's, They dont have a chance. :)

Anyone else the UFO at 0:55.......OMG.

[chadoo951]

@GXPFiend LOL. yeah idk what that is... Maybe the sun. But that video was taken late in the afternoon

[chadoo951]

@brooksystyle Hey I like the M5s, but smoke a g8? lol, not with the simple bolt ons my car had at this time of video. A properly tuned, intake, long tube headered and cat back G8 GT will take a stock M5. Thats pretty impressive if you ask me. And Still have well over $60k LESS into the car than the M5 owner does with his car STOCK. Now my G8 has a blower on it. I encourage all doubting M5 owners to come play :)

@GXPFiend Looks like a spec of dust on the window

the commy would win if it was open highway

M5's are quick and I do love them but everyone of them I've come across especially the V8 M5's has been in my G8 GT's rear view. The M5 is was the G8(Holden Commodore) was designed to compete with...tool bags

@chadoo951 nice car bro but at the same time wat would happen if the m5 was supercharged lol..

[scopapa33]

@statjr and your point? and it would most likely be s/c since the turbo's tend to cause too many problems on a G8. i still believe with unlimite funds you could achieve more power with a 6.0 or 6.2 than a M5. Beamers are nice, but people pay too much for the name alone.

[statjr]

@scopapa33 I 100% agree with you. However, I HIGHLY doubt that that's without a Supercharger and/or Turbocharger.

[scopapa33]

@statjr truly unique in terms of eating up cash. you can take a G8 and spend 30k tops and walk that same Dinan.

[statjr]

@chadoo951 Got a buddy of mine that has aBMW M5 Dinan Stroker, with new tires and 60 degree temps (like today) we put down 0-60mph in 3.5 and it's topping out at just over 700HP. All N/A, total spent including car and mods, $80k-$90k.

I'd say that's a fair trade off, as well as the plain and simple fact of the matter is that you can find a V6 or V8 anywhere, but the V10 is TRULY unique. :)
