I have it on video and will post it when my damn camera is working again.

but yes the Z06 won with halft length ahead but the distance would be larger if the Vette owner didnt start in second gear.

Oh I didnt know that 100 mph was considered fast, and by "faster" I guess you mean a further 55 mph until the Gallardo will pass you.

You can get them derestricted, which lets them sail on to ~200mph

As I understand it benz, bmw and audi have all agreed to electronicaly limit their cars to 155 mph, although we all know that a few of them are prob good for 200 mph+.

Just_me · 09-26-2006, 04:54 AM

the limiter is 250km/h, for en extra cost the limit will be raised to 305km/h.

:roll: If you are going to make a post and avoid making yourself look like an idiot, then please read the whole thread first :roll:

The M6 has a low CoD, which helps it from losing speed when going past 100mph, but as far as I know, there isn't an M car which can outrun a Gallardo.

No understating or overstating going on, just what I've read and seen *shrug*

When you say "seen" do you include the video that was posted my Just_Me, and if so, what are your comments on that then ?

Actually this BMW limiters aren't really on the 250kph mark anymore. The M6 cuts in at 270. I've also been a passenger in the new 330d and it also goes above 260 easily.

That tuned M5 is very impressive to keep up with the new Porsche Turbo, and it's still cheaper than the M6!

how many M6 vs Gallardo videos have you seen?
I've seen a couple of M5 vs Gallardo videos but M6 videos are more rare. also M6 is a faster car than M5.
