That guy in UAE got 13.4 secs 0-200km/h, VBOX verified for his M3 with DCT. I thought it would be closer to the F10 M5 times.

I've seen times low as 11,8 sec for the new M5. Noway a M3 is that fast. M3 ever been as quick as M5 up to 200km/h?
+ doesnt an engine need to lose up a little before it gets trully effective?

I have seen 11.7s for the M5 without CP, low 11s with CP. There are lots of parameters that can change the comparison. I am looking forward to some comparisons of the F80 and F10M done at the same place and time with as few differences as possible.

I have also noticed today that the BMW quoted 1000m times being the same at 21.9s is potentially a red herring because the F10 M5 hits the 155mph/250kmh speed limiter before 21.9s.

I previously thought that the F80 would be faster than the F10 M5 but I now believe that the F10 M5 is faster in a straight line (except for maybe off the line) than the F80. I still expect the F80 to be faster everywhere else.

Yes it was there for continuity , did they not have two? The M4 Cabrio makes its European debut at the AMI in Leipzig and the M Festival.

There will be drives for the M4 Cabrio soon.
