Just gotta understand that those M5's SUCK reliability wise (and if I can say their reliability sucks compared to the 370Z with all the problems I have... LOL... It tells you how big a POS the BMW is)
Those stock times only apply on the auto. (4.6 to 4.9). If you run manual, 4.9 to 5.4 is much more common. It seems, not all manual Z drivers can pull the Z to it's full accel potential.

The auto has been known to hit 4.4 with very mild mods.
