Power estates are awesome, they're like wolves in volvo clothing.
I think it's just a newspaper mistake. I bet it's a M5 touring.
yep, that's got to be the M5. And that's a bit disapointing that the other car is a merc, I would have loved to see an RS4 or RS6 Avant.
Why? It's the E63 with the new AMG engine, the perfect companion for the M5 Touring in a drag race!
Yes, I agree, but I would have loved to see a drag race between the M5 and the RS4 (or the RS6) because they are 2 different concepts of high-performances estate cars. The 4WD less powerful RS4 against the heavier rear-wheel-drive M5, that would be hard to say which one is the fastest in a drag race (especially if it's on a 1/4mile).
The E63 is (in my opinion) a luxurious version of the M5, and a bit less interesting as well. Also the V8 of the Merc is not as exclusive as the V10s in the M5 or the RS6, and the V8 of the RS4 is astonishing.
But don't think I'm not glad about the choice of the contenders, it will still be a hell of a drag race
i know there was an E30 M3 touring.
i was sure it would of been M5 touring vs RS6 Avant (though im not entirely sure an avant version of the RS6 exists)
but there has never been an M3 Touring...there will be one of the E90, though...
