It\u2019s especially true when talking about the Competition version from Munich and the 63 S available from Affalterbach. Both these high-powered, heavyweight luxury bruisers were lined up for a drag race in less-than-ideal conditions as the road was damp.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s worth pointing out that while the M5 has a stock twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine, the AMG GT 63 S has been tuned by the German aftermarket specialists at Brabus. With a colossal 700 hp and 1,000 Nm (738 lb-ft) on tap from a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8, the modified car has an advantage of 75 hp and 250 Nm (184 lb-ft). On the flip side, it is about 200 kilograms (441 pounds) heavier.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-392522\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"2020 bmw m5 competition transfagarasan road 08 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-1537x1024.jpg 1537w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2020 bmw m5 competition transfagarasan road 08 830x553\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-392522\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"2020 bmw m5 competition transfagarasan road 08 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-1537x1024.jpg 1537w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-bmw-m5-competition-transfagarasan-road-08.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2020 bmw m5 competition transfagarasan road 08 830x553\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The M5 painted in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2018\/06\/08\/video-snapper-rocks-blue-m5-starts-bmw-m-colors-compilation\/\">Snapper Rocks Blue<\/a> had to settle for second place that day as the sinister AMG was substantially quicker off the line. That\u2019s not to say the BMW was slow as it still did 0 to 62 mph (100 km\/h) in 3.18 seconds, which is remarkable considering the official time quoted by the manufacturer in ideal conditions is 3.4 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>BMW\u2019s family-oriented speed machine did 62 to 124 mph (100 to 200 km\/h) in 7.21 seconds before completing the quarter mile in 10.96 seconds. It seemed to be gaining on the AMG GT 63 S near the end of the drag race, but not enough to recuperate the lost ground.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, this wasn\u2019t an entirely fair fight. To even the odds, it would\u2019ve made more sense to have a standard version of the AMG GT 63 S or have the car race against an M5 with a tune or an M5 CS. The latter was recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/12\/07\/manhart-bmw-m4-csl-tuning\/\">modified by Manhart<\/a> to more than 700 hp, which would make it a worthy adversary for this Brabus.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-SefOv4tZ_I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cars with Pilot Tseno \/ YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DRAG RACE!
