I just met my first 2010 BMW M5 out on the road tonight. It was a humbling experience. Dang.

Wow, I'd say so...look at this:

"The BMW M5 needs no introduction anymore and everyone acknowledges that the M5 has been, as Mr. Clarkson says also, “the ultimate sport saloon”….well, sedan as we call it here in the U.S. The E60 M5 is powered by the amazing and soon to be phased out, 5.0-liter V10 S85 naturally aspirated engine which produces 500 horsepower and redlines at 8250 rpm. Torque? An impressive 384 lb-ft (520Nm) at 6100 rpm.

Top speed is limited at 155 mph(250km/h). Official numbers show 0-60 mph(0-100km/h) at around 4.5 seconds, but we’ve heard of people that have done better."

Take comfort in the fact that it stickers for twice what your Vette did.

Never forget. The pursuit of speed cost $$$$$. Find a level you are comfortable with and enjoy it whether it's packaged in 3,4,6,8,10 or 12 cylinders or with the up and coming battery packs. It's like trying to be the richest man in the world. There can be only one. (and it will never be me).

Yikes! I sure like the way it sounds! A newer Z06 would kick it's ass.

I was hoping as his curb weight was over 4000lbs I had a chance, not to be. He was a good sport though.

Even with the weight, the M5 will give even a Z06 a run for its money.
