I've seen those videos and while the M5 is impressive the Z06 drivers were terrible. A poor running Z06 with a decent driver is a mid 11 second car at 125+. Btw no one races 0-60 times.
I'd put my money on a base C6 6 speed in a race over a Dinan 550i. The 550i is a nice car but let's get real. It is no match for a 430hp 3300 lb car. A C6 is a better race for an M5 than it is for a 550i. A base C6 will also accelerate with a CTSV which is only slightly behind an M5 to put it into perspective.
