    It’s time for a BMW fanboy showdown! The all-new BMW M8 Competition arrives on the start line with 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 625hp and 750Nm of torque! As for the M5 Competition, it arrives with… exactly the same powertrain! So does the slightly lighter M5 have what it takes? Stick with Mat to find out!

    BMW programmed the M5 to shortshift when it detects a more expensive M car in the vicinity, To make M8 owners feel better about their purchase

    Okay Mat. It's time now. We've been waiting long enough:
    - New RS7 vs M5 Comp/M8GC Comp vs E63S/AMGGT4dr63S
    - New RS6 vs E63S Wagon vs Panamera Gran Turismo E-Hybrid
    Yes the new RS6/7 should be compared to the non S and non-Competition AMG/M until the RS6/7 Performance comes, but for now this is what we have and we need to have that god damn dragrace! 😜
    Just saw the RS6 absolutely destroy a Tesla Model 3 Performance, so it's surely gonna be interesting! Cheers

      "Until" what if it never comes? Then it does make sense to compare the comp versions since they are essentially the highest level of the car. Comp/s was only made to give a slightly cheaper non comp/s car to the public. They weren't made to give slightly more power as BMW and Merc would sell you the 615bhp version of the m5 instead of the 590bhp version of it if they stopped doing the whole competition thing.

      matt someone with an SRT what do you mean the M8’s ‘optional’ 4.4 V8? There is no option, that’s the only engine it comes with. As for a Redeye ‘destroying’ an M8 Comp, that’s simply not true either. The M8 seems to be able to pull a consistent 11sec 1/4 even on a cold surface. Some US publications are getting 11.3 for the Redeye. The best I’ve seen is a 10.8 on a properly sticky drag strip and drag tyres. So put the M8 completely in those same conditions and it could easily dip under 11. Power is nothing without traction and a modern gearbox.

      @@gustavofurtado1728 another driver went over 12s with the M5 so I do think there’s an issue. Honestly almost nothing to do wrong when you’re in automatic with launch control 🤷🏼‍♂️ should just be full throttle, let go of break no shifting,

      You can clearly hear him shift early on the 2nd race, right after the start. I think it was either planned to make the m8 look faster to sell more m8s, cause they a little more expensive or this guy can't drive. Both cars should have the same 0-60 and they pushing almost the same horsepower.

    • @МаксимНоровяткин
      @МаксимНоровяткин 5 лет назад +11

      I just can't stand when he says it was shortshift, when he clearly missed the gear or shifted too early.
      He should've just used an automatic mode

      And you Daniel should know what the outcome will be, i know you're an AMG guy but i also like that you're a car guy...Benz needs to take a brake from the luxury and they will dominate the segment, its their downfall, the more gizmos make the car heavier..

      Dumsani simelane dude what are you talking about, I don’t care about drag races I care about the track and the amg will whip the m8gc ass around a track. On its cup 2 tires it’s already quicker than the m8 comp coupe around a track. On ps4 it was .2 slower than the coupe and its hundreds of pounds heavier. You bmw fans boys are nuts. Do you watch f1?
