W213 E63 vs. F90 BMW M5: Nurburgring visual comparison

[GTA45E]

Hay guys'
I could not help but notice the distinct behavior differences of these two cars on the Nurburgring during testing.
The upcoming F90 M5 vs. the W213 E63. The E63 seems quite happy. Seems well planted with directional changes, less understeer, and far less tire squeal. The body motions look great to.

The M5 seems to have good body control to but more understeer than the E63, much more tire squeal and the car looks like it's all over the place on the track. I know these cars are moving at different speeds on the track and that will make a difference. Is this some of what we will see on the production versions? If so, good Lord. Put on your headphones and enjoy.

Please, this is only a visual comparison. No nasty fanboy comments.

So this is a visual comparison yet you can't help to say how the MB seems better planted with less oversteer and whatnot?

We have no idea what they are testing, how far they're pushing the cars or what they're doing at all....

Pics would've sufficed

Yes, especially from 3:21 till end....

Bimmer looks pretty planted to me. You're gonna get tire squeal in any situation depending on how hard you're cornering. On top of that the Merc did not look like it was being thrashed.

I could not help but notice that when I amble half asleep in the middle of the night to my bathroom to take a leak I don't break a sweat and my arms are neatly tucked by my side. But Usain Bolt during a race, sweats more than me and his arms are flailing all over the place. I know we are moving at different speeds (and that makes this comparison absolutely ridiculous, but I still want to desperately feel good about myself tonight, so please throw me a bone tell me it is because of my innate superior athletic ability over UB).

Please, no nasty fanboy comments.

Good points
Around the turns the speeds almost look the same in both cars as there is a limit. Its on the straighs where the MB look like it was going slower. Later in the video the MB looks like its being thrashed.

The Merc clearly has the better looking camo on though!

There is no way you can make analysis out of videos like this, there are to many variables..

Pointless

So really the only nasty fanboy comment is the OP in this thread, interesting.

Or maybe it's just utter ignorance? Pretty likely too.
