Somehow I find that hard to believe !
It's like bbigman telling us the m5 is the quickest best handling car ever

I was throwing the meg over kerbs that would have broken all the electronic crap underneath an evo - much easier mentally pushing a 20k car to the limit, rather than a 40k one - plus after 11 continuous laps it was still going strong, nothing overheated, faded, no warning lights came on and there was still plenty of feul left!!
Sure the evo is a faster car, but within the confindes of a track where really you make up your times in braking zones and carrying corner speed the gap is much narrower than out on the open road - which would explain why the R laps the evo test track nearly 0.5 quicker than an evo X.
Of course the M5 is still the fastest, best handling car ever and it is one of those I want next rather than an Exige 260 ...
...err, no, that last bit isnt true

Even when I have owned 15 Jap performance cars myself ranging from 280 - 480bhp.
Thankfully I live a bit more in the real world and speak from actual tests and comparisons made during those years of ownership, I'm a communist dictator, I can accept the M5's not so good points, but you will all understand that overall it is better than any jap tuned motor!
I suspect if some of you gents could afford it you would be driving high end vehicles yourselves and of course I appreciate that the reason why I am driving the high value car and you are not is because I am bigger than you and have a considerable amount of muscle lacking in many of you.
p.s not that presa has hardly been on forum since his purchase, that is because he is out there enjoying what as far as I am concerned is the second best car in the world, the best being the WR1.

Thankfully I live a bit more in the real world and speak from actual tests and comparisons made during those years of ownership, I'm a realist, I can accept the M5's not so good points, but I guard my decision that overall it is better than any jap tuned motor!
I suspect if some of you gents could afford it you would be driving high end vehicles yourselves and of course I appreciate that the reason why I am driving the high value car and you are not is because I have that ability to make informed decisions and have a considerable amount of intellect lacking in many of you.
