The sportauto Supertest reported the following:

M5: 8.13
M6: 8.09 (on cup tires)
F360: 8.09
F360CS: 7.56
996TT: 7.56




Is that just their test? I had always heard the M5 had run a 7:52.



The sportauto supertest is a very comprehensive test including Nuerburgring and Hockenheim track tests, wet handling performance, aerodynamics, etc., etc.

Also, the tests are always done by the same driver. Environmental parameters like temperature, air pressure etc. are published as well. Thus, the test results are very comparable.

Personally, I have never seen a better test in any international publication

BTW: Maverick is right: the only BMW that did the NBR below 8:00 was the M3 CSL on Cup tires.
