they brought a "knife to a gun fight" seems a little unfair, but then again they wanted the BMW to win

I was more interested in seeing it outrun the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. They should have put a CTS-V in there as well.

Yeah, but horsepower wise, its got 400hp.
And it did pretty well, considering it was down over 100hp compared to its rivals.

I think tht's how the car magazine industry works these days, like radio. Auto MFers are probably paying these guys to promote their cars. M5 has been on the front page of every single car magazine that came out in the last 2-3 months.
