 | Re: Fan boy Drag Race: SL 63 AMG vs E60 M5 - Result?? The M5 will win, the SL63 is heavier and although it has better low/mid range torque, when you are drag racing what matters is high RPM power and this is what the M5 has. The SL63 might stay with it off the line for a short while, but I'd say past 80MPH or so the M5 will start to pull away. |

| Re: Fan boy Drag Race: SL 63 AMG vs E60 M5 - Result?? Lets not forget that the SL63 is hooked up to the new AMG DC-7 speedster that I believe, operates quicker and smoother than the M5s. |

| Re: Fan boy Drag Race: SL 63 AMG vs E60 M5 - Result?? I think the M5 might have the higher ground from a dead stop with the SMG only and being some ~150kg lighter. From a roll it might be in trouble because of the SL's massive torque. |
