The M5 has:

13" Non-Brembos
V10 with 500hp
0-60 in 4.7 secs.

The only thing that has the M5 going is its handling...and its price (vs the Bentley). Other than that, the Americans have really started to sh*t on BMW's M division with their new cheap supersedans.

Hell, for the price of a 545i, you can get a CTS-V that will spank the M5 in most departments. That is SERIOUS business.
