The BMW M5 is faster. If the stock M5 is not good enough for the hellcat which for me is good enough you can always buy the MANHART MH5 GTR. It gives 788 hp So if the normal M5 CS is 2.9-3.2 seconds for the 0-60, the Manhart would be even faster. Also, the Manhart M5 has a top speed of 207 MPH (333 KPH).

You are comparing the last gen M5 that’s rwd only. If you can’t even figure that out then your words have zero gravity.

How is it faster on a straight line? Throttle house BMW M5 vs Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye, the M5 completely gapped the Redeye track and drag race. besides, the M5 has a claimed time of 0-60 in 2.9 seconds, and the Redeye does 0-60 in 3.4 seconds, so how will it beat the M5? Also, the M5 has 617 hp and the Redeye has 807 hp so 807 hp losing to a 617 hp car that is only 300 pounds lighter to me is embarrassing.

M5 0-130 MPH is 11.4 seconds and the Charger Redeye 0-130 MPH is 12.4. A whole second slower. 😂

So what’s the Sixty-to-130 difference between the two cars? And why are we talking about a G30-based F90 and a Redeye on a page about an F10 versus a Charger Hellcat plain model?

I paid 60G out the door for a 2019 charger HC octane edition that’s half the price of an M5 , brand new only 4 miles on it from Cabrals dodge dealership I test drove m3 and CTS-V and the Charger was way more comfortable and better riding then m3 and CTS-V n and I’m a Chevy guy too ud think I’d go for the CTS-V nope honestly the hellcat felt better n it seemed more luxurious to me than the CT’s-v the gauges lagged so bad on the caddy , BMW m3 was nicer but just didn’t have that sound the hellcat does American muscles nothing like it ..... Ooo I’m definetly trading in for a Redeye Charger now !!!!!!

It really depends on the engine size. V8-wise, Merc takes the cake. 6-banger-wise, Beamer's the wiener(schnitzel). On the 4-banger side, neither is reliable. Audi and VW aren't really known for reliability; Porsche is, however, but they are not mass-market vehicles.

Check Consumer Reports, BMW in 3rd place, Audi in 6th, and Mercedes-Benz in 24th place aka last place.

I don’t trust Consumer Reports. They literally list Tesla as the most reliable.

No, they list Toyota or Lexus as the most reliable brand which is reasonable.

I don't buy the point that M5's are underrated on power. The Hemi guys are claiming the Hellcat is underrated (not buying that either). It does the car company no good to undervalue performance of the car. And IF they do, it's probably not by a huge difference/margin. Bottom line, the 707 HP Charger is faster. It's a muscle Saloon. The M5 probably handles better (I'd bet next months pay on it). They weigh about the same. One costs twice as much. BMW's are great cars. I've owned 2. They were always in the shop however (after a BMW hits 4 years of age...sell it). Dodges may need visits to the shop after they have a few hard miles on them....but they are FAR cheaper to fix. BMW parts and maintenance is painful.

sure you can compare these 2 cars. But keep in mind. Only 1 of these cars has 10 airbags. And to be honest about branding, and quality, it's about iphone vs xiaomi. The xiaomi does everything a smartphone does and does it well, but it's a xiaomi, and in the long run, you can bet the iphone is going to do better at more things and will be more desirable even if the processor isn't as fast, or the monitor isn't as big, etc... exactly what we have with these 2 cars
the dodge has more hp, costs less, has leather this, aluminum that. it has its own rightful market. But it's definitely not in the same market as an M5

Havent you seen dyno test of M6 Competition ? We are talking about real power not claimed power.
That new M5s and M6s have for real much more power than it is claimed. There are tons of information about that out there.

I havent read how much power for real has M5 Competition but M6 Competition has about 680 HP. M5 Competition has propably less power than that.
