I had the opportunity to drive our M5 from ruf to munich, and then the 535d back to ruf. This was a real chance to see the main differences between the two. On the 535d, the tyres are the Run flats and they are utter crap imho. They are noisy and have no grip. On the autobahn the car feels good, but not planted like the m5. The acceleration is superb though with torque absolutely everywhere... as an everyday car it is peerless....i would take it over the m5 if i was commuting everyday, as it is 85% of the speed but much more economical. Unfortunately we just bought the R32 and i havent had a chance to drive it much. But it sounds fantastic, the DSG gearbox makes the M5's look like something from the stone age, and the general fit and finish is superb. And it handles very well all the best adam | |

| Re: Ruf RT12 and CTR @ Nurburgring (Scanned EVO Article) Just_Me, Sorry i missed your post earlier... Its very hard to say...basically i was lucky enough to take the ctr to the ring for one weekend, and then the next weekend i took the r turbo. To make a long story short, i had the most fun in the r turbo. The ctr is a car which is well beyond my talents as a driver, its unforgiving and so fast. But dont get me wrong, it is a tactile delight to drive and the noises and speed are just intoxicating, however i never really "let myself go" as i fear that i will stuff it into a barrier..the rturbo on the other hand is much more forgiving, and you can really fly with it round the ring. However for a sunday afternoon blast round country roads i would take the ctr, for a late night Vmax, i would take the r turbo Here are some pics: our old and new m5:    r turbo:      |
