x5m vs e60

was on M5 board and i came across this bc a guy on there got very defensive when I said the x5M feels faster than the e60 m5

then I found this link.. and he's still doubts it.. regardless its cool to see and read:

Not surprised, the E60 offers better exhaust note but the X5 does feel faster.

After tuning the X5M the e60 has no chance...unless we are over 120.

The e60 is a great car, but it has no where near the torque of the S63

Looking through the comments someone stated the cars ran on different days and the M5 was ran on a damp track. I didn't read the Article.

to be honest i didn't read entore article either i just looked at the lap times and surprised to see the x5M quicker than the e60 m5

I'm a member of another m5 forum bc my prior cars were m5.. and I mentioned somehting about x5M being quick and great and this guy jumped all over me - like it was a personl insult to him! lol

my only point was X5M are great cars.. and a great option if the m5 is not able to meet your needs for some reason..

i love my x5M

I currently own a E63 M6 and used to own a E60 M5 as well. I also drive a E70 X5 50i that I absolutely love. I plan on upgrading to a new X5*M in a couple of years. If could only keep one vehicle it would be the X5. It is an amazing machine! I am sure the X5M will be even better. I was just pointing out that from the posts that this test was not a true apples to apples test. It is still amazing what these 5300lb Beasts can do.
