so what job do you have that allows you to drive cars for a living? I want that job lol...
I'm a master certified Mercedes tech. I run the used car department, so I personally drive or ride in everything that comes through the dealership. BMW, Porsche, etc...

The CL65 is the TT V12 with ungodly torque correct?
The parking deck for my apt is shared with a restaurant that valet's in the lower two levels...there was a '65 there the other day...there's no way in hell I would valet that car!
"Here, let me pay you and I'll park it."
612hp/737tq if auto sites are correct...how do you keep that on the pavement?
On an unrelated note, I will say this, if I was given the opportunity of owning an M5 or an E55, I would have to side with the E55...

Sounds about right. They do weigh 4000lbs remember. 10 lbs per hp in the BMW vs probably the same or slightly better in a slighly more aerodynamic "stockish" FD.
But this is an M5, not a 540i. There are many more differences than you might think. A 540i with 400hp still won't even come close to an M6 with 400hp around a track.
yeah a stock 2000m5 felt much faster than the dianan 540is.
