Just started using my Cossie again after a couple of years since its been laid up.Its on greys with the t34.63 400 bhp.

Simple fact is the E39 M5 is slow compared to it.End of!

your lucky having both! i havent got either

fuzzy

but which one will revert back to pleasant cruiser and which one will need towed home after the race?

Graceland

Which one will melt into a million little pieces after sitting at 155mph for more than 10 seconds, Also which one will sit at 155mph all day without breaking a sweat?

Neither of them will if the mapping is correct, which it will be on the M5

Asturias

Where can you sit at 155 all day long??

Cossie is more fun though,M5 is only fun when your going sideways everywhere.

RS220Turbo

Asturias remember this is PassionBMW now so forget the ford talk

Forget 155mph try 170+ with a simple chip! m5 will eat you up before you know it!
and were talking of a standard m5!

Mike1

Which one will use more oil............?

blacky.

Was havin this conversation today with a m8 with a M5 and he said that the 5 can drink a bit of oil too

up the power 50% or more on an M5 and see what happens to it, the cossies u have to modify them for them to brake the m5 brakes whithout touching them.

blacky.

the cossys are fast in a im going to kill you if you loose concetration for a split second way lol

Asturias

you say that like its a bad thing

S1rst

Oh how dare you say that a cossie is quicker than an M5 on passionford! You may even get a ban for this.

And why the hell as comfort come into the equation here?

Paul_RS

iTrader: (4)

The M5 is twice the power of a standard cossie and more than likely twice the price lol

Lovely cars though and if i wasn't a silly cunt i'd have one instead of my cossie

fuzzy

which one will leave you with a bin bag full of broken bits as a momento of that glorious 30 seconds?

blacky.

it isnt on a short blast but when driving to the other end of the country it can be tireing lol

S1rst

Probably the M5 actually.

Glad to see this thread big-ups cossies then...

What you all on here for??

Paul_RS

iTrader: (4)

We're idiots

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Well i personally wouldn,t have a M5 over my 3dr tbh, yes call me a tit etc, just not me at all....

bud-weis

A Cossie weighs around 1300kgs...an M5 weighs more than the Sun, only one winner!
I love my cossies and the thrill of a real 400bhp is fantastic!

It's not a great comparison though really is it? lol.

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

made me chuckle that....


Yours is the best colour imo though Martin AND in all fairness they,re ALOT of car for the money...

Being honest, i'd love an M5, but i think i'd get bored of it quickly.

Nothing beats driving round town in the sapph, gearbox whining its nuts off, people staring in pure disgust at how loud one single car can actually be

paul ,4x4 cossies must be the only car in the world where a whineing gearbox is a sign of a good gearbox

cheers james

on the flip side you can drive like a twat in a bm & draw no attention to your self lol

Love this quote I'm the same with my rst. straight through zorst with a 4" exit. backfiring if you rev it right, half the people hit the deck and half look away in dusgust

col cos1

iTrader: (5)

i always said if the time ver came move on from my hatchback it be to an m5

but it be going in for a twin turbo conversion lol

james kiely

iTrader: (5)

only because they have probably assumed you are a twat already


























































only joking

bud-weis

They're an amazing machine straight out of the box, which isnt THAT surprising when you consider they were Ł60k+ new.

Comparing them to a tuned cossie isnt really fair, as straight line speed aside, it would muller a saff in every department.

I still love seeing a cossie on full blat though!

Paul_RS

iTrader: (4)

Exactly

You know most people are just thinking WTF is wrong with his car

Alps Pacino

cossies are nice for other people to own, m series motors are nice to own lol

blacky.

no need to joke lol i am a twat

I personally love driving my Cossie. It's a stage 3 2 wheel drive sapphire on standard wheels etc and it's so much fun and so comfortable to drive. At the moment I'm driving the Time Attack car all over the place and getting back into the Cossie makes me smile, even my mate who is using the cossie while I have the Skyline is starting to enjoy driving it You can drive it and get out of it at the end of a long journey and not feel like you've been anywhere, I guess they were built as fast executive cars

I love them and drive lots of different cars but I can't let it go because of how nice they are to drive and how raw they are I know why Pete keeps coming back I've tried selling mine twice now and both times on test drive I've realised why I have it

Pmsl at yet another thread ass kissing bmw m5's lol, don't know why anyone would ever buy anything else it seems! Sure an m5 is going to be more reliable blah blah but an old RS just has so much more character and that is what owning rs's is all about....we all know they can be unreliable moneypits the majority of the time!
