Default V10 M5 vs. CTS-V & RS6 Plus...first Test

Well this is the first test I've seen of the new 500hp V10 e60 M5. Car did well on standing starts, but it looks like the 400hpCTS-V beat the new Munich monster in all rolling start tests and even stopping distance.

Way to go Cadillac!

the e60 M5 still won out in lap time which is (IMOHO) the best overall indicator of performance envelope. That said I'm impressed the Caddy won in so many categories at such a bargain price.

Pretty impressive, I like the CTS V alot but I would give it up in a second for a chance at an M5.
