The E39 generation BMW M5 is arguably the most beloved M5 model in history. It was the first-ever M5 to use a V8 engine, resulting in a power output of 395 hp (400 PS), to go with 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque channeled to the rear wheels via an upgraded Getrag 420G six-speed manual transmission. 16 photos
This car could hit 60 mph (96 kph) in 4.8 seconds in an era when that type of acceleration was something you’d usually get in a Porsche, Ferrari, or Lamborghini. On paper, it was just as quick as a C5 Corvette and quicker than something like a Ferrari 456M.

This is awkward. We don’t usually like to give out many spoilers when it comes to these types of videos, but this drag race should have never happened.

Now that the Mach 1 has effectively replaced the Shelby GT350 for the 2021 Mustang line-up, the move only seems to have made the latter even more desirable. After all, how can you not fall in love with a flat-plane crank pony built with the track in mind? Then again, plenty of GT350 owners use their muscle cars for straight-line brawls, as is the case with the example sitting before us. 6 photos
To keep the battle interesting, the wielder of the Ford decided to duke it out with a totally different type of velocity animal, namely a previous-generation BMW M5.
2021 Audi E-Tron GT Quattro first drive review: An electrifying tourer

I needn t have planned so assiduously. For my two hours with the E-Tron GT I ve carefully preselected a route. I ve plotted a convoluted course around a selection of well-trodden roads that I often use for testing cars, my hope being that I can cover quite a bit of informative ground in my allotted 120 minutes. But I ve just driven over some speed bumps in the car park and I know that, within 100 yards of getting into the car, they have already provided precisely the information I was looking for.
