Ive driven both when i was briefly at BMW. The M5 is definitly faster top end but to my suprise when you press the M button to go from 400 to 500hp about 100hp, i didnt feel a big difference when i had it engaged. Ive also done a race with a vert and a 4 door and the 4 door pulled on the vert till about 80mph by about 1 car and then it was dead even. Goin back to the M5 i absolutly hate the tranny(SMG). If you want to do normal driving around town it is jerky, sounds and feels confused. When your driving fast i have to admit it will feel right at home. The new auto tranny in the M3 is excellent but in the end as fast as it is i would still take a manual.
