The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com) - View Single Post - Z8 is out-handled by M5

I know someone who owns both the Z8 and the M5, and his findings are totally in line with what this magazine writes. It is probably the body flex on the Z8 that destroys the handling. In a German auto magazine, the Z8 lost a comparison test to a Corvette C5 Convertible on the handling.
