i would take the m5 over the e55 any day, the e55 i must say has better styling and interior and is fast but is not a drivers car compared to bmw. the e55 is just fast, but the m5 is faster with better technology hence being able to enjoy all that horsepower more.

I think the german owners will.
I have never seen an RS audi being driven slow (less then 100 mph) on the autobahn.

Here's an Audi that will make the M5 look like a 323i

Give it a little time to load up (it look 5 mintues for me). The camera car is the M5
Hope this is not a repost

That is the old M5 V8 model and the RS4 you see in the vid is a 600 hp MTM one.

I have indeed read (somewhere) that Mercedes WILL release a E65, with the same Supercar 600+hp and pavement crushing 700+ft/lbs of torque as offered in the upcoming SL65 TT V-12!!!

I will have to admit, that I too would have to give the E55/E65 the nod in "most wanted" Sport Sedan! The styling is timeless and say add some $9000 20" Tectite HRE Wheels & Rear Spoiler (wheel experts previous car) you literally have a 'Work of Art' on your hands, that will run with damn near anything on Earth!
