oh wow, the powerslides (drifting) gave me chills. That's one awesome car.

A friend of mine has one, but he certainly never drives it like that!

Oh my god, that track scene was so AWESOME I was smiling the whole time. Those drifts simply rocked.

I loved the narration of the driver and how he kept looking at the camera and not the track! What a nut he was.

I'm suprised he didn't have to wear a helmet.

Yep, frequent looks at the camera, constant smile, and laughter on a professional racing course while drifting, sometimes with only two wheels on the ground. That to me =
FUN!

It's very nice but the power is on the downside for a V10. The Mercedes E55 is a Supercharged V8 and it produces 469 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. I'd love to see a video of these 2 beasts going head to head.

I don't think that the V10 engine of the M5 is down on power at all. 507 hp is pretty impressive figures considering its all motor (no force induction). anyways, that was such a nice video. I think BMW hit another homerun making a 4 door supercar.

I have the video. If you have somewhere for me to host it, I will post it. 8,000 kb. The m5 wins with four people sitting in it =). Or email me, and I can try to email you? lol.
