The 1992 Mercedes 500E goes to battle against the 1994 BMW M5 Touring and the 1994 Audi RS2, both of which have manuals and more favorable power-to-weight ratios
is powered by a 3.8-liter inline-six, while the Audi has just 2.2 liters and five cylinders to go to war with.However, the RS2 is turbocharged, meaning it makes a healthy 311 hp . Meanwhile, the Euro-spec M5 makes 335 hp , which is actually more than the Mercedes, which only churns out 322 hp .
Its big engine is capable of generating 354 lb-ft of torque, which is considerably more than the competition can muster. While the turbocharged Audi can churn out 302 lb-ft , the BMW’s straight-six only makes 295 lb-ft .a lot through the quarter-mile. As Cammisa explains, the big displacement and the variable valve timing mean that the engine delivers ample torque to the wheels throughout the rev range. But that’s not its only advantage.
“Despite its long, 49 mph first gear, it’s almost even with the other two cars on the launch,” he says. “Its old-school automatic slam shifts, instead of cutting power, so each of the two times it shifts, it just gains even more ground on the two other cars.”
