Can this be?
Yesterday I was cruising up Hwy 83N towards Grayslake... stopped at a stoplight and a guy in an M5 was staring me down. The light turned green and I slammed it... I heard him screaming as he started shifting... but I was at least a nose ahead... and then I saw a Sheriff... and laid off quickly (we were doing about 45 and that was the speed limit). The M5 kept going (probably thought he'd won) and I kept looking back for the Sheriff... but we were lucky.
Now, really... I couldn't believe it, but with God and my g/f as a witness... I really was ahead of this M5.

I was in an M5 when a GTP pulled next to us on the highway at about 65 mph, and kept jerking forward to start a race, my friend and I were like WTF? And it was on, I watched as the GTP faded away in the distance until we hit 120mph which was like in 4 secs. M5 are beasts.

the M badge has the red and blue lines, he could have been scrambling for traction, I took a Z06 out from the start till about 35mph then he was gone nothing but tail lights, he told me his 1st gear lost it so he went to 2nd and it still lost it and I was ahead of him then until he caught grip.

M3, M5.... All the same result... (most) of our asses is grass. No way to keep up with the M3, 333HP or the M5, 390-400HP (depending on who you read).
I had a cool M5 in front on the highway of me a while back. Doing 80-90, the last of the left lane lovers got out of the way, and all I saw was the M5 getting smaller and smaller in front of me.
Do you need a car like that, no. Do you want a car like that? OOOHHH Yeeaaaahhh!!!

Yeah, they have the quad tips like our new 04's. Another identifer would be the extremely wide rear tires along with the fenders flaring out to wrap them. Ya those things do move pretty damn well
