at the end of the clip probably over 140mph...

UPDATE - - I asked my friend who owns the M3 depicted, actually it is the 7 speed DCT...

[markqc1]

Both cars are completely stock, no powertrain mods

I think if you read the posts, really watch the video, regardless of getting going a small part of a second sooner, the M5's torque will result in it pulling on the M3 in the lower gears...

Ether way I would buy an e39 m5 over almost any car today. They are practical(4doors,comfortable), and have a ton of power(FUN). Not to mention a timeless body shape. Damn they are Pretty!

e39 has 30% more torque, thus it starts better.

It only catches up from aero dynamics and less weight.

Nice run guys !

[BimmerM5e39]

if its a roll its all M5 until 140mph, but off the line M3 would always be upfront

E39 M5 and E92 M3 weight about the same, M3 should be a little bit lighter but a full tank of gas or a fat driver/extra passenger already makes it heavier than the M5.

I did some pulls in my M5 against an E93 and had the same results as the video :)
