Well, standard would mean with the speed limiter on, which caps the m5 at 155. take it off and it'll do 206mph, and crush the evo (accellerates faster too and has similar handling even though it's heavier)
If you're actually thinking of buying one, the m5 if you can afford it as it's a luxury car too, fast and practical. but you could get probably 4 1999 evo's for the price.
Don't touch an old esprit with a bargepole, it's the car that gave lotus its acronym:
Lots
Of
Trouble,
Usually
Serious.

Depends who's driving and what kind of course it's on.
The M5 is one hell of a car with almost twice the power of the older Evo. The Evo is also geared with a lower top speed, so if you have a long high speed section the Evo is in trouble.
I'm off to try both cars (unmodified) on GT4 and see which is the fastest.
I know it's only a video game and it was last years M5, but it beat the Evo 6 on 2 different courses.
I also looked on the Top Gear website at the Stigs power laps and the M5 did it in 1:26.2 seconds whereas the newer Evo 8 only managed 1:28.9 seconds.
On a motorway the Evo wouldn't stand a chance.

I would wait for the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06.
For about the same price as the BMW, the Vette has 600 horsepower. It would smoke both of them

Go for the EVO, it sounds and looks better than the bravarian beast
