We recently did a drag race between the M5, Merc-AMG E63 S and Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid. It didn"t feature the lifer because it was away being fixed (I wrote about it last time and so far no repeats). If you want a surprise, watch the film online before you read any further.Done that? Good. The M5 walloped em. Least powerful but lightest, it also possesses the most phenomenal launch control when it works. Sometimes it will engage, sometimes it won"t. I suspect the system gets hot after a few runs, and then removes the temptation from you. So fast was it that we redid the figures when our car came back. And yep, the result wasn"t a fluke it managed a two-way average of 2.99secs to 60mph. So that"s a full-size saloon that seats five, has a 505-litre boot, massage seats and kick-ass stereo getting to 60mph in under three seconds. That"s nuts. The fastest super saloon ever, surely?
