LOUDEST COUGH IN THE WORLD... BMW M5.. END OF.
It's a different class of car - the M5 is a lot smaller and less luxurious than the Panamera. Porsche were quite clear on marketing it as a 7-series competitor, although I did always wonder how ambitious that was until Garlick's comment earlier in this thread.

If it were a 50hp differential I'd say the it is irrelevant, but 130hp more power is utterly massive in any car.
They're Luxo barges, I'd prefer a more power and 95% of the 'feel' over the ability to take the car to track days.
Surely in luxo barge 430 bhp is more than enough? It's certainly not lacking.They're Luxo barges, I'd prefer a more power and 95% of the 'feel' over the ability to take the car to track days.
Although this is PH and as it hasn't got over 500 bhp it's probably not classed as a fast car

Amazing that anyone can compare the M5 with a Panamera.
But they do, just remember that when you're sat in your car trying to feel superior and an M5 blasts past you..... RichB said:

If it was all about raw speed, we'd only buy Nissan GTRs and Audi RS6s.
