I'm selling my Avus Blue '00 M5 to raise some cash. I was wondering how different the 850's are?

I read the archives a little so I'm not starting at ground zero, but in the case of a nice 850 6 speed (not csi - trying to SAVE money), how different would it be for performance?

Both the 850 & M5 weigh about the same. The V12 SHOULD have plenty of torque to pull it off the line. Right? What about noise levels, handling, braking, etc. Would you consider an 850 an equal performer to an E39 540i/6 speed?

Thanks for any info!
