Nice and predictable
M5 (BMS) power to weight ratio : 700/4400 = 0.159 GT3 power to weight ratio : 475/3200 = 0.148

Tbh, what is the point of videos like this?
If performance is the factor here, then I would go for the Porsche. I'm a stock/factory/OEM kind of guy so things like aftermarket/modding and 3rd party aren't my preference.... |

The videos are for those of us that do enjoy modding. I like to know how my modded M5 performs relative to other high performance cars.

Not very impressive for a 700 bhp car. I was under the impression that a stock F10 M5 would beat the 991 GT3. Looks like it wouldn't have beaten it without mods...

Very interesting.. I was expecting the gap to be muchhh bigger. Not as big as I thought and the GT3 does an amazing job sticking to the M5 probably until 100 mph.

His point:
From a credible performance comparison perspective, afternarket vs stock DOES NOT mean anything or is not an indicator of which car performs. In short, apples vs oranges. Better to pit stock M5 CP vs stock 991 GT3........because that is a more credible indicator of comparative performance. Only then will we see which is the better vehicle. |

By the time the M5 arrives in the U.S. There is no M drivers package and the car is limited to 155.. The euro version is limited to 199mph..when it comes down to it you are saying you want to compare a car that has been limited and made more "safe" to the other car.. please..do me a favor and think about that..

Agreed. I'd much rather have a 991 GT3 than an M5. That is unless I need to transport 4 people comfortably while getting my butt cooled and massaged at the same time.

The BMW M5 featured in that video used power upgrades from a third-party firm outside of BMW. That's like saying that athletes who use steroids are superior than those who only use natural methods and hard-earned skill. Your point is moot Stock for stock is the only legit comparison |

Lets be honest the only true "apples vs apples" comparo is the same model car vs its twin.... on the street.
I know which car I would rather have all day (check my sig LOL).
