Default Bmw M6

just got the new Motor Trend and Car and Driver magazine....

It says the New BMW M6 coupe traps 121 in the 1/4 mile...
Is this true or is it a misprint?

The M5 traps 115mph in the 1/4 and it has the same motor and it's a tad bit heavier how is it that the M6 is trapping 6 mph higher..?

i remember back in 1999 when i thought the 260hp mustang GTs and 305hp camaro z28s were quick...no it seems like all those past cars are getting slower and slower...... the new Hyndai are making 260hp and trapping almost 100 and it's a Hyundai
