Tested by the same publication, the M5 is significantly faster.

The regular M5 got a 0-100mph of 6.6s by C&D. When you compare these times, you really can't compare across publications. They all test these differently and C&D tend to get the absolute fastest times of anybody. C&D got a 0-60 of 2.8s for the base M5.

Here's the difference, M5 listed first, M850 listed second both tests done by C&D:


Test: M5, M850i
0-60: 2.8, 3.3
0-100: 6.6, 7.6
0-150: 15.9, 18.5
5-60: 3.7, 4.3
30-50: 2.2, 2.3
50-70: 2.4, 2.7
1/4: 10.9@129, 11.5@123
Top Speed: 163, 159
70-0: 147ft, 161ft
skidpad: 0.98g, 098g
Ah my bad. You are right. I'm my mind I was thinking of quarter mile times. HA. I was like no fucking way. xD
M5 is a monster. Nothing comes close unless it's the next gen M5
E63s does

rather not fit...3er has more room.
Negative Nanny I detect some jealousy here. I just purchased a new M850i convertible and it is much nicer than a 3er as you put it. And the 3er does not have a twin turbo V8 last time I checked. There isn't much competition in the convertible high horsepower "similar cost" category that I would consider "over it" at present. The technology in the M850i is second to none.
