BMW E60 M5 vs Mercedes AMG C63
To start us off with, the BMW.
BMW M5 E60
The BMW M5 carries a V10 engine, which opts out about 400HP, which shifts to 507hp when the power button is activated. It takes just a mere 4.7 seconds for the BMW M5 Sedan to go from 0 to 100 km/h. The M5 is not only is it a sporting saloon but can conversely be a 4 door family car the interior is based with merino leather and also shows a heads up display of your speed and rev counter on your dashboard whilst in M mode, which allows the driver to keep an eye on the road whilst an eye on their speed.
And now the Mercedes.
Mercedes C63 AMG
The new Mercedes C63 AMG packs a whopping 457HP with a maximum of 600NM of torque available powering this rocket from 0-100km/h in just 4.5 seconds, 0.2 seconds faster than the M5. Whilst the M5 may be faster through the corners due to its sedate susepension setup, the C63 is all all about fun. With the diff more than willing to smoke up the rear tyres and put its power to use, the C63 will be the ultimate fun machine, excelling in sideways action and the straight line drags. It's likely if you own the M5 your boring wife will be driving it to the golfing range. Get the C63 and enjoy life, be it a 1/4mile at a time or sideways around your nearest sweeper.
