I know that the aerodynamical wall for the M6 is ~218 Mph, acording to Hartge. The person I've talked to, told me that on his deristricted M6 wanted/could have hit 211 Mph, but because of tyre worries decided that 200 to 205 Mph would be enough. So who knows, maybe there is some logic to the M5 gearing (providing they're the same as on the M6). Tough the AMG really seems way to  Who knows, maybe on the Lexus 8 speed gearbox it's someting like : .. . 8th gear .... 670,616,629.384 MPH/1,079,252,848.8 km/h  LOL  | |

The M5 starts walking away at ~130 Km/h, by 180 to 200 km/h the gap is visible. | |

| Re: Sport Auto - 80-180 km/h: 4/5/6 All these excuses, it is almost as if it is BMW's fault that Mercedes doesn't know how to gear their car. |

| Re: Sport Auto - 80-180 km/h: 4/5/6 Typical, another test another CGT and Zonda F slaughter. But Im surprised by the Ganballa 550 it's on top in all the tests. The Z06 did poorly and there is no 6th gear data. |

The gearing in the E63 is a bit odd. It's almost like the last 2 gears are overdrive gears. This clearly explains why the M5 can walk away from the E55 (and likely the E63) at very high speeds.
