5.3 makes much more sense. But it seems a little slow, don't you think? I realize that there's the 100Kmh=62mph factor, but if american tests are getting as low as 4.8, then half a second seems way too much to attribute to just an extra 2 mph! Does the M5 have to shift again to hit 62?

Has anyone seen the episode of Motorovision where they test drive the M5? I just watched it today, and I could have sworn I heard them say they did 0-60 in 4.3 seconds! That seems way too quick for the M5, so did I hear incorrectly or were their results simply inaccurate?
