[Topspeed]

I addressed this post on the M5 board so I just have a few questions for you Dreamer:

. How does your car, restricted to 250 km/h, reach 265 km/h in a kilometre sprint when the M driver's package (305 km/h) isn't available in S.A? Is your car "stock" as that clip proclaims?

. How is it possible that your car can reach 265 km in the kilometre sprint at Gauteng's altitude of ~5000 ft. above sea level when a 997 turbo S can reach 261 km/h at sea level? Is your car faster than a Turbo S?

If we tabulate figures supplied by yourself and compare them to data for a Turbo S and GT-R it's readily apparent that something is amiss:

Vehicle 0-1000 m sec trap speed

Turbo S 20.2 261 km/h (sea level)

2012 GT-R 20.4 258 km/h (sea level

F12 M6 21.7 265 km/h (altitude)???

You even stated that your car still had something left in reserved so do you reckon 270 km/h? That would put you in the league of the McLaren MP 4-12 C, a car that traps 136 mph in the 1/4 mile and 0-200 km/h in 8.7 secs.

My contention is that the M6 would be significantly slower than the 542 bhp GT-R from 0-200 km/h, with or without launch control. You were way off the mark. The GT-R does not take 12.2 seconds to get to to 200 km/h. That figure's more indicative of the M6 notwithstanding the 11.2 second anomaly you referred to.

It's also far faster than the F13 M6 in a kilometre sprint (0-1000 m).

So I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you on this one.
