German Sport Sedan SHOWDOWN: BMW M5 Concept vs. MB E63 AMG vs. Audi RS6

Now that the BMW M5 "Concept" has finally come out from hiding, we can take a nice, long look at the three German sedans that have been spending a lot of time at the gym and juicin'. As you would expect they're all rollin' with over 500 horsepower and they all are unique in their own way.

Although BMW hasn't released the FULL specifications on the M5, you can expect it to have around 555 horsepower since it is the same motor from the X5/6M.

With that said, WHICH are you taking home and WHY?

**Yes, I know we don't get the Audi in the States but use your imagination

M5 hands down, but I definitely don't like the rear difuser.

As MB fan, I prefer the M5 but the front of the E63 is better by far. M5 front looks too bland, but overall is nice ride. Audi RS6 as allways very impresive I would be happy with any of this supercars....

Would be nice if all that power (500+) is always on tap!

I pretty sure the performance specs will be off the chart but what was the big fuss about the design of the car.

Based on the photos, I would choose the M5 followed by the Mercedes. The Audi looks dated.

E63 benz has the best designs of the group. I'm willing to bet the best performance as well of all three vehicles
