A stock SS is not going to out run a stock M5 M6 AMG CLS 55 CLS 63 S65 or even the 60k new C63. That's just plain fact. If you out ran an M5 perhaps he or they weren't paying much attention or even trying. |

400+rwhp and climbing!

My shop does a lot of repair work on these German status symbols. I have driven a lot of the high dollar m series BMW's and the build quality and performance of these cars is so over rated. After a few years all German cars are the same Leaking, shorting out ,cracking interior, rattle traps and that is the TRUTH.

the OP asked a question...current M5/M6 owners have told them that their Camaros had to be heavily modified to keep UP with their M5/M6. So if you beat one, you were lucky.

And what in God's name is a 'pea thrasher'? Yes...the V10 is a noisy motor. Won't get an argument from me on that one.

Sounds like old war stories to me...Like I said, with 425 WHP I was walked by my own M5 driven by my brother, who is not used to the car. BTW : monsters live in my garage, be careful what you ask for. I'll see your 400 RWHP and raise you 600RWHP, you LOSE.

Let just say deep pockets are a must with any M car. Find one with a CPO warranty and you'll be fine. Oil changes and repairs can be very expensive, but it is after all a V10.
