wow you people don't give up, the e63s was a year old by the time M5 came out and then was 2 years old by the time M5 comp was released, not to mention the fact that the standard m5 was more expensive that the e63s. why in the world should the m5 comp be compared to e63s.

I know that people miss the old hosts of the show, but Chris Harris is a professional on driving and the most difference is that he actually drives the most aggressive shots and the old ones used driving doubles. This re-upload it´s still a masterpiece.
@Paavo I just wanted to answer awes momani's comment and make every reader smirk, but in no way offend you. My comment is not to be taken too seriously.
Mr. Harris you are wrong. The super sedan segment was not created by BMW with the M5 in the eighties. It was created much earlier by Mercedes Benz. By the ends of 1967 Daimler introduced the legendary 350 SEL 6.3 and claimed it was the fastest production sedan in the world. Jay Leno remembers.
The 300 SEL may have been the first “super saloon”, but the E28 M5 literally reinvented that segment. It set the template and benchmark for sport saloons that even to this day, has not been matched. The fast executive car would not be where it is today without the E28
most people don't get it.... it not about fair or cost or anything... It depend what the film is take which side for... in this case a very overprice e class with absurd power.... It a 4 door car.....
-TJ- so they should have waited. The M5 competition was released only a few weeks after the “regular” version. They draw a bullshit conclusion in this video… almost as if merc paid for it like an advert…
Nandeesh Tharanibalan don’t worry, e63 s already lost against standard m5. This video is staged, like others who want to lose the m5 because they know its fast 😜 M-Power💪
I like the E63 S more, the inside is way nicer and cleaner than the M5 competition, and you can customize it way more than the M5, and it is more comfortable.
Only this man speaks the truth! All other channels says that M5 is better in every way, just because thier fans like to hear that! But not this channel!
I am all for the new E63S, but after BMW released the 0-60 times for the new M8, I expect the refresh of the 63S to match it or better (0-60) in 3.0 (officially, so it can perhaps to it faster but 3.0 is my expectation now).
Yeah... the engine son! The engines are the same, I expect merc to up the performance to compete. And yes, not the same, but at the same time- it stands to reason that the 8 series (if you want to say it competes with the s coupe), would also not be faster than the E63 due to size, weight, etc... and the old 6 never competed against the s coupe or CL.
Chris Harris made an important statement do we need 600HP super saloons? Answer is no but they makes it anyway in case if you want them. Both the M5 and the E63 are monsters and very similar in performance it only boils down to your personal preferance. Either ways you cant go wrong.
REAL RACING 3 Best you don’t know. Mercedes did marketing lieing that their engine in E63s is slower than bmw’s, but in reality it is same or even better performance. Mercedes did so, people say it kinda has to be slower, but then power comesss...
Xx_ANGRYCAT_xX Xx_ANGRYCAT_XX yea bmw wins there for smaller time than a second, which you never will feel in the street. Also, bmw m5 comp. released 1 year late compared to e63s. So, actually it’s very hard to compare them, When merc launches new e63s in 1 or 2 years, bmw will lose again, then...
You can tell the Stig was beating Chris all the way around... but with the magic of editing, Chris won😂 everybody knows the M5 is the best car of the two.

I was always a BMW guy 2018 e63s was the my first Benz. Best car I've ever owned.
*No matter what , M5 all the day , its the walking legend*
Except every M5 is completely unreliable. Constant problems. I know.

only M5 or every single car ?
Be fair, personally i have an * M5 & Jaguar XKR* both amazing machines but M5 is less maintenance work needed
@@goldeneye9381 have owned 4 M5s and have had major problems with all of them.Every single one. I have owned Porsches and Mercedes and have had zero problems. Maybe it's just me but I will never go back.
@@goldeneye9381 depends what m5 you own. if u own e60 m5 so you are lying about it because it is a nightmare car about maintance if u talking about f90 m5 you will enjoy it first 20.000km because after that the electricity will glitch the shit out the car and it will effect engine work and engine will bug
Scripted obviously
Yeah Stig would've won with a difference of 10 seconds
@@s.abhishek1786 especially with the M5. Jheez what a machine. I even went for a 2019 e63s myself but just recently my cousin bought the facelift M5 Competition and I’m seriously lusting after it even though it would cost about 40% more every year in finance costs over the facelift e63s. Mind you the facelift e63s looks tasteless.
It’s not about the destination...only the journey matters. I have one and can tell you that’s a beast indeed.
The E63 was more than a year old when the M5 came out
abhi shetty so for you thats unfair for mercedes? What is your point
its been always lyk tat...they never launched at d same time,,,infact this is just a m5 widout competition package....
So then by your logic that means the cars must come out the same day for it to be fair?
@@likewutyeye9309 lol...who made d logic statement first...😂😂 it wasnt me who said tat amg launched 1 year later...its obvious dey wil make d better ones whn dey launch ..otherwise wats d point..in makng dm.
Elbin Thomas who was even talking to you in the first place?
The DNA of an AMG is its ability to go sideways and a growling scream
I know that people miss the old hosts of the show, but Chris Harris is a professional on driving and the most difference is that he actually drives the most aggressive shots and the old ones used driving doubles. This re-upload it´s still a masterpiece.
No, he is a clown, even in this video what a dramatic lil piece of shittt
3:53 was a sexy camera shot for both cars.
The M5 is just better.
@Paavo thanks my friend.
Attention, we dont want to trigger the merc-boys
@Paavo I just wanted to answer awes momani's comment and make every reader smirk, but in no way offend you. My comment is not to be taken too seriously.
@Paavo and im 11, why you ask?
Mr. Harris you are wrong. The super sedan segment was not created by BMW with the M5 in the eighties. It was created much earlier by Mercedes Benz. By the ends of 1967 Daimler introduced the legendary 350 SEL 6.3 and claimed it was the fastest production sedan in the world. Jay Leno remembers.
The 300 SEL may have been the first “super saloon”, but the E28 M5 literally reinvented that segment. It set the template and benchmark for sport saloons that even to this day, has not been matched. The fast executive car would not be where it is today without the E28
M5 needs to be the competition pack if you’re going to pit it against the “S” this is biased and unfair.
I agree, however the competition was not available when this film was made.
Yea
Lol nit picker
most people don't get it.... it not about fair or cost or anything... It depend what the film is take which side for... in this case a very overprice e class with absurd power.... It a 4 door car.....
-TJ- so they should have waited. The M5 competition was released only a few weeks after the “regular” version. They draw a bullshit conclusion in this video… almost as if merc paid for it like an advert…
I just click on like button without watching, as long as it's Chris Harris
can't wait for the new rs6
Why u didn't compare M5 competition pack with an E63s???
The M5 is better then the e63s, the m5 competition the fastest 4 door will kill it!
Interesting that he claims the AMG is the more agile of the two. I would never have expected that.
A mercedes commercial in disguise 😂. Ya’ll know what the E63 ’s’ stands for bring in the m5 competition and lets talk about it.
Nandeesh Tharanibalan don’t worry, e63 s already lost against standard m5. This video is staged, like others who want to lose the m5 because they know its fast 😜 M-Power💪
As if you can buy one. Ugly street shitter
@@nishhnishh1088 yea he is a piece of shit
I like the E63 S more, the inside is way nicer and cleaner than the M5 competition, and you can customize it way more than the M5, and it is more comfortable.
The performance seats in my C63s is like a rock! 😂
Andrew Xie ya they are terrible but the comfort seats are more comfortable than the m5 seats in my opinion.
Chris should be the narrator for... everything.
The most expensive part of these car was DRIFT mode.
Funny thing 2 years later the most expensive part was just turning the cars on
AMG🔥😍
Both beautiful looking cars. Personally I'd have the BMW on this one 👍
nah id have the merc
Chris Harris....the only reason i still watch Topgear
What’s better than a Mercedes E63 AMG and a BMW M5??? The wagon versions!!!
ArcherX shit I forgot about that... shame shame shame...
That was more than a drift battle
As a BMW owner, I still liked this video! Great fun!
A stock M5 Competition would destroy both the E63 S and Audi RS7 .
Cheers!
The AMG E63S barely keeps up with the normal M5. It doesn’t even stand a chance with the competition pack!😂
In a rolling race, the E63s is faster, and sounds better. Oh, and which is the fastest sedan around the ring? Just curious 🤔
I could watch Chris all day
pretty sure sideways isn’t the fastest way around the track
Lmao i was thinking the same
Hahahahaha. Brilliant comment! Cos true. 👍🏻
Chris Harris does such a great job.
Lol all these mad BMW fangirls.
Only this man speaks the truth! All other channels says that M5 is better in every way, just because thier fans like to hear that! But not this channel!
This is staged asf. M5 would win it easy lol. Also this isnt even m5 competition
JoPi U are one of those fans l'm talking about!
@@jelly7924 Its proved lol
Unfair race, not an M5 Competitions vs the E63 s
Ohh, hello the E63s have the drift mode..the E63 doesn't..that's why... Unlike BMW both non comp & comp have drift mode..
But the BMW still started first 😉
@@wildgoose2586 started what first I might ask..?🤔
Chris really is the only man for this job. Get rid of all the silly stuff and just stick him in cars and let him ramble. I’d watch that all day.
I like the old people on top gear
This is a joke
Thanks Mercedes for staging this
In 25 years M5 will be as fast as Veyron
David Sosnak I’m screenshotting this comment.
I’m going to keep saying .....top gear sucks now ....the old top gear was waaaaaayyyy better.....oh well we got The Grand Tour now 🤷🏻♂️😁
I am all for the new E63S, but after BMW released the 0-60 times for the new M8, I expect the refresh of the 63S to match it or better (0-60) in 3.0 (officially, so it can perhaps to it faster but 3.0 is my expectation now).
M8 = S63 coupe enemy nothing to do with E class
Yeah... the engine son! The engines are the same, I expect merc to up the performance to compete. And yes, not the same, but at the same time- it stands to reason that the 8 series (if you want to say it competes with the s coupe), would also not be faster than the E63 due to size, weight, etc... and the old 6 never competed against the s coupe or CL.
Why not the m5 competition package or the normal e63 not the “s”
Still, why not M5C
Elias Kortelainen yes there is. It’s awd only and has around 570ish hp

@@nikomoin7604 in your opinion.but thats ok for me.I would take the merc and you the bmw👍
Chris is on the Merc payroll
Wei Wang absolutely true
Marc is a better car better looking, i 've always had mercs,just one btw. I'd switch up for the seats in that Beemer though, yes I like them that much
Chris Harris made an important statement do we need 600HP super saloons? Answer is no but they makes it anyway in case if you want them. Both the M5 and the E63 are monsters and very similar in performance it only boils down to your personal preferance. Either ways you cant go wrong.
omg, m5 power❤❤❤❤❤❤
BMW M5 competition vs AMG E63s
Wheres hammond?
Who?
win kerr Richard Hammond
@@jacobz3n974 Who?
Back when topgear was good
It is still beats the train....
What a good way of summing up!
The most strong drag race between these two cars would be m5 competition vs amg e63s.Of course bmw m5 competition wins
REAL RACING 3 Best you don’t know. Mercedes did marketing lieing that their engine in E63s is slower than bmw’s, but in reality it is same or even better performance. Mercedes did so, people say it kinda has to be slower, but then power comesss...
@@maxtunyan7954 Have you Seen the carwow drag race where the M5 Competition Won?
Xx_ANGRYCAT_xX Xx_ANGRYCAT_XX yea bmw wins there for smaller time than a second, which you never will feel in the street. Also, bmw m5 comp. released 1 year late compared to e63s. So, actually it’s very hard to compare them, When merc launches new e63s in 1 or 2 years, bmw will lose again, then...
Chris Harris, Henry Catchpole and Harry from Harry’s garage would be an outstanding TG trio
You can tell the Stig was beating Chris all the way around... but with the magic of editing, Chris won😂 everybody knows the M5 is the best car of the two.
Nice race dude
