04 Cobra vs. E60 M5

[DieselNuts]

I was coming down 85 south earlier today while arguing with my gf on the phone. I looked up in the rear view and saw an M5 coming up through traffic. I told the GF to hold on and put the phone down. We were doing about 70mph and I droped it to 4th and goosed it. He didnt bite so I went back to 5th and accelerated a little bit to get past a car. When I pulled far enough ahead, He ducked in behind me. I got over in front of the car and he followed but he was right on my ass. I dropped to 3rd and layed into it. He was still on my ass so I knew he wanted to play. I hit 4th and started to pull slightly. Went to 5th and pulled even more. I got into 6th and got in to it for about 3 seconds then let out. The speedo was pegged @ 160 so Im not really sure how fast we ended at but I pulled about 1-1.5 cars on him. We slowed back to crusing speed and he pulled up next to me smiling ear to ear and giving me thumbs up. I gave him one back and got off at my exit. When I got behind him, I saw that he had exhaust which makes me think there is a possibility that he had more. He was also lowered on some nice wheels tucking the top of the tires. His car was SICK. His tag read V10 M5.

Edit: I just found out that he has a header back eisemann exhaust and tracks his car on the regular. Its good to know not everyone pu$sy foots around in these cars.

Thats true. And honestly, I would take an M5 over an M6.

[1SLWPOS]

Good Kill I want to run your Cobra still =(

[AnthonyF]

M5 > M6

2006 SRT-10 Coupe

I saw that you got your car running again and that you were having fun with some 03 cobras. What was the outcome of that?

[1SLWPOS]

Pretty even atm. He jumped b/c I was break boosting and I hung near his door.

[Ronsam2006]

Nice kill.

[Lankhoss]

M5 > M6

2006 SRT-10 Coupe

-Ant.

Damn, I wanted to run one of those for the longest time. Smoked plenty of '04 - '05 convertibles, but never got to run a Coupe.

Is it stock?

the M6's are closer to $100k. the 650's are around 70-80. they're nice as hell tho... i've driven a couple of the m's. one was a vert, and that damn thing was SEXXXAY!!!! all that luxo and they're still pretty fast... i'd rock it if i had the cash to drop on one.

[Motivation]

Nice kill man...

[SpooL'DGsR]

NICE KILL !!

Yep and spending 90k on a dodge makes more sense..
No balls to them at all...

No luxury either..



Possibly both M5/6 are one of the nicest GT touring cars money can buy.

The verts arent as quick. '06 was the only Coupe until '08. It isn't stock. I'd love to run you in it...but I hardly ever get to take it out and it's typically during the day. It has minor bolt ons and a garbage tune b/c my dad is an idiot.

100k???? HOLY FUK! I didnt know that. I think they are sexy as hail but damn...100k....:screwy:

for under 100k, you get the car that set the quickest time on the 'Ring...i think thats a pretty good deal.

[Lankhoss]

Well, let me know if you can ever set it up.

Bolt on Z06 vs. Bolt on SRT-10 Coupe would be a nice matchup :D

[Thrust]

Bolt on Z06 vs. Bolt on SRT-10 Coupe would be a nice matchup :D
+1 That would be a real good run.

Better see you at the V this Saturday :boobies:

What year is your Z06? PM me your number JIC I get the car out. :goodjob:

It's an '06. I've got a cold air intake, headers and catted X pipe, and tune on it. I don't have a cell phone anymore, so you could always just PM me on here and I'd get the message.

Nice :cheers:

Ever had fun with an E39 M5 on 85S -> 285E ? :ninja:

[AnthonyF]

^im not a BMW guy, so I have no idea what that is. lol

-Ant.

[DieselNuts]

it was Silverstone (silver with a blue hue) and I'm not sure about the wheels. We were moving too fast :D I'm pretty sure I saw this car before about 2.5 years ago and I think they were a lot of spokes. Maybe like a split 10 spoke or something. They weren't chrome, but I'm pretty sure they were multi piece wheels.

Thats the last style 5 series with the 400hp V8. Sexy ass cars.

Just saying because I had fun with a viper 2-3 weeks ago. Viper has some balls for sure to pull on my car like that.

[AnthonyF]

^what model was it, year and color? wheel color?

-Ant.

[jfman]

-Ant.

I was not paying close attention but it was a newer one not the early round ones but a the newer one with more angular shapes.

[AnthonyF]

Vert or Coupe? The verts are a tad slower. The coupe was only made in '06. I dont know of anyone in GA with an '06 coupe S/C, I think there are a few verts S/C, not positive on that.

[Lankhoss]

Just curious, what kind of power did the SRT-C make with bolt ons? I was always curious how well they responded to mods compared to the Z. I am right at 500rwhp with my mods.

What's an SRT-C? lol I know what you mean, he made 510 I believe. He says he's "tuned" but My dad is an idiot. We wont get professionally tuned. He's contacted SCT and they sent him a tune over the net for his mods. I wish he would go to a dyno and get a real tune. So it MADE 510 but it's not a healthy 510. NAH MEAN?

What's your gear ratio? I installed 3:55's in it instead of the OEM 3:31

-Ant.

[DieselNuts]

From the sounds of it, you two would be a pretty good run. I'd like to see it for sure.

[Lankhoss]

I have the stock 3:42 still in my car. I do have a short-throw shifter, though. Other than that, I can't think of anything else that would affect my acceleration.

[DieselNuts]

Anthony....Steal your dad's car tom. night...

[AnthonyF]

^lol. It'd be a close one. As long as it isnt a dig. I can hook the viper for ****. The vette does weigh less than the viper and is a tad more aerodynamic. The Viper is currently running the 42" stock shifter. lolol

-Ant.

EL OH EL @ 42" shifter :lmao:

[AnthonyF]

^it's true. It's so long. Takes for ever to shift that bish.

-Ant.

[Lankhoss]

Yeah man, get that f'er out already! I'm sick of typing about it :D

Hell, just tell your dad to bring it out, I don't care who's driving ;-)

I don't know how much difference there is between the stock gears and 3:55, but I know with the stock ones a Viper has almost the exact same shift points as me. So I dunno what a good speed in 2nd is for you. 60 is perfect (maybe even a little low) for the stock one, but I don't know how it'd be with a 3:55.

[Lankhoss]

Alright, I'm going to give the car a much-needed bath and manicure. It'll probably take me a couple of hours. You better have some sort of escape plan for that car by time I get back!! :D

[Lankhoss]

HEY!!! Car is almost ready, where you at??? lol

Actually, I think I'm headed to the G-net Sonic meet here pretty soon. I haven't been out in so long, just kinda itching to go do something.

If you race my dad, you will Win. He's not good with the "new" way we do things. he's old school and confused.

[Lankhoss]

Eh, just wanted to get out. There were domestics there. It was better than sitting around the house.

It was either a coupe or a targa top car with a hard targa top piece. The top had a snake head look to it if that make any sense.

So was it you?

[DieselNuts]

Did it have a trunk or a glass hatch?

[jfman]

Dude I dont know lol!

[DieselNuts]

you're not very observant...

[jfman]

you're not very observant...

Racing in traffic I'm not worried about the options that came on the car I'm running.

[DieselNuts]

its not really an option...its a model...

[Tech5]

No VIDS I call Bullshltt;) ;) ;)

Positive. I've met the mechanic that was working on the car while he was driving it.
