There are different specs, on different reviews now that I've been looking, I was comparing the 2011 vette and older, not the new one, the 550 has 25 more torque, the 0-60 times are similar within .5 or less on every site Ive found, so with everything that close, it just depends on the driver, yes the vette should win, but in my two experiences it did not. So a big 550i with 4 doors and is a lot heavier than the vette, it runs pretty damn close, even with professional drivers testing the cars out.
