Too bad they excluded the CTS-V... "European snobbery"...

too cheap for that test :P

Interesting snub for the V. I suppose there will be more than enough CTS-V vs M5 videos pretty soon.

lil_chef · 12-07-2011, 05:43 PM

i don't think the V is nearly as poplar over there as it is here.

it would have been nice if they used the Panamera turbo though

Panamera is beast, I love that car.

My thoughts... having driven 3 of them

1. PANAMERA TURBO- best sedan period- for all around driving (note they did test with panamera s huge diff in performance and price)
2. MERCEDES E63- great performance-above average backseat room- reliable
3. JAGUAR XFR- fairly quick... not as fast as numbers posted though... zero room in the rear.

The f10 M5 does nothing for me. So far so good. I'm actually thinking about modding it,lol. I'm a glutton for punishment I guess

I will take the Panamera Turbo S over any of those.

I love the styling of the new Mercedes that are coming out... I used to prefer BMW but their designs are getting boring IMO.

Well according to this test, the CTS-V hit 150 mph in 22.3 seconds. So it is in the ball park of these cars. And this comparison also has the Jag XFR and E63 AMG and the CTS-V was faster than both in this test. But this was too early to throw in the F10 M5
